Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals: Both teams preview
Chennai Super Kings
Chennai Super Kings have had a challenging IPL 2025 Season, playing 12 matches so far they could only gain 3 wins and lost the other 9 matches. The team not only struggled with performance but also faced captaincy challenges with Ruturaj being ruled out of the season mid-way. They started strong with a win against the Mumbai Indians but struggled to maintain momentum, losing many matches by narrow margins. Despite these setbacks, the team showed resilience and fighting spirit and are coming from a successful match against KKR. In their recent match against KKR, Chennai chased down the target easily and won the match by 2 wickets. With only one game remaining after this, CSK will be eager to win this game and end the season on a positive note.
Rajasthan Royals
It’s been a rough season for the Rajasthan Royals who have officially been eliminated from the playoffs race. Playing 13 matches with only 3 wins and 10 losses. They struggled throughout the campaign, facing heavy defeats but also some strong performances. The team showed flashes of brilliance, including a big win against Punjab Kings by 50 runs earlier in the season. However, inconsistency hurt their chances of making it to the playoffs. Coming into this match against CSK, they would be fighting to end the season with pride now. Though out of the playoffs, they still have enough individual talent to make a mark and can play a party spoiler for Chennai.
