Pre-Match Analysis:
No Moeen Ali and no Ben Stokes, says no problem Chennai Super Kings as they have the right backups to win matches for them. Ajinkya Rahane who didn’t know he will feature against Mumbai Indians until the toss produced an excellent master class with the bat on his home ground to hand Chennai a thumping 7-wicket win. Earlier spin twins Ravindra Jadeja and Mitchell Santner did enough damage for the opposition with their spirited bowling show claiming 5 wickets between them. MS Dhoni who has got an excellent cricketing brain maneuvered the troops really well according to the conditions. They have incurred with injuries yet again with Deepak Chahar injuring his hamstring against Mumbai Indians and remains doubtful for this clash. Ben Stokes and Moeen Ali who didn’t feature in the last game are likely to be available for this home game. With 2 wins and a loss, they are placed in the 5th spot in the standings with 4 points. Maheesh Theekshana’s presence will bolster their bowling unit further.
Rajasthan Royals are back to the winning ways as they outclassed Delhi Capitals by 57 runs in their previous game to register their 2nd win in 3 matches played. Openers Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal gave them an explosive start adding 98 runs in just 8.3 overs. Shimron Hetmyer’s late flourish took them close to the 200 run-mark. Pace spearhead Trent Boult making opposition batters ordinary with his breathtaking new ball bowling and has 5 wickets to his name in this IPL. Wrist spinner, Yuzvendra Chahal is operating really well in the middle overs and remains their best bowler with 8 scalps. A perfect opening combination, a diversified bowling unit, a well-known finisher, and a brilliant skipper make them one of the formidable sides in this tournament. Will they break the Chepauk fortress we need to wait and watch?
