Moeen Ali, Mitchell Santner, Dwayne Pretorius, and Devon Conway could be the team’s four foreign players when they take on the Royals. In addition to these, Deepak Chahar and Ben Stokes will miss some games with the team.

Sharp batting by Rajasthan

Rajasthan lost to Punjab by five runs after winning their opening game against Hyderabad. The group then rallied, defeating Delhi by a score of 57 runs. The team’s top order, which includes Jose Butler, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson, and Shimron Hetmyer, is playing outstandingly. Trent Boult and Yuzvendra Chahal are both continuously taking wickets when bowling.

The team’s four foreign players against Chennai can be Butler, Hetmyer, Bolt, and Jason Holder. Along with these, the team is also strengthened by Samson, Jaiswal, and Ravichandran Ashwin.

The Chennai Super Kings have a great track record at their home stadium, Chepauk. In the last 20 games played here, the team has won 17 of them. Only the Mumbai Indians have managed to win three games. It will be difficult for Rajasthan to win this game in such a circumstance.

CSK leads in the overall battle

In the 2008 IPL final, both teams played against one another. Rajasthan had won at the time, but Chennai has a better overall record in head-to-head matches. There have been 26 matches between the two so far. CSK triumphed in 15 and RR in 11.

The Chepauk Stadium pitch is regarded as favourable for spinners. But CSK scored 217 runs in the most recent game played here, which they won by 12 runs. In such a scenario, Rajasthan could also face a high scoring pitch.
