Hey guys, welcome back to my blog- SlogVlog! In this post, we are going to be doing a preview of the upcoming match between the Chennai Super Kings VS Rajasthan Royals. If CSK wins, they go to 2nd place, and if RR wins, they go to the top of the table.
This is how the post will go-
Table:
- Probable 11 For Both Teams
- Weather Report
- Pitch Report
- Stats
- Prediction-
- Where/When/How to watch this match in- INDIA
Probable 11 For Both Teams:
CSK:
- Devon Conway
- Ruturaj Gaikwad
- Rahane
- Moeen Ali
- Rayudu
- Jadeja
- Dhoni (C & WK)
- Rajvardhan Hangargekar
- Santner
- Maheesh Theekshana
- Simarjeet Singh
RR:
- Yashasvi Jaiswal
- Jos Buttler
- Sanju Samson (C & WK)
- Riyan Parag
- Shimron Hetmyer
- R. Ashwin
- Dhrub Jarel
- Jason Holder
- Trent Boult
- Sandeep Sharma
- Chahal
Since we are not sure whether Jos Buttler has recovered from his Injury or not, which he got last match, the former England Skipper Joe Root may also replace him. Root also balls spin, so it can help them.
Weather Report:
According to weather reports, it will be sunny and clear the whole day tomorrow. So no rain is expected at all.
Pitch Report:
After seeing the pitch when CSK played against LSG, it’s clear that the bowl spins much more when the pitch is worn out in the second innings. Ravichandran Ashwin would love to bowl on his home ground (As he is a Tamilian by birth and plays for the Tamil Nadu domestic team), and so will Murugan Ashwin if he comes in as the impact player (Even Murugan Ashwin is born in Tamil Nadu), but CSK being the powerful spin side will dominate here. And after seeing the CSK VS LSG match here, both teams would want to bat first.
Stats:
| Matches- | 26 |
| CSK Won- | 15 |
| RR Won- | 11 |
| Tied- | 0 |
| No Result- | 0 |
Prediction:
We are expecting the yellow lions to win. Their spin can and will dominate here in their home ground. CSK have been known for their spin over the years, and even this year, they have a brilliant spin side. And now the Sri Lankan spinner Maheesh Theekshana has also returned from the recent Sri Lanka tour where they went to New Zealand, so they will have one more top-class spinner. They clearly have the edge. And the fans. Of the 40,000 fans who attend, I am sure at least 35,000-36,000 will be yellow supporters. And they give extra confidence to CSK, which makes them invincible over here.
