CSK vs RCB IPL today match prediction: One of the most anticipated contests in this season and the expectations have rocketed up after the way these two teams have started their campaign. CSK’s brand of cricket in this edition of IPL has been one of the talking points so far after the way they messed up last year.
RCB have punched above their weight so far in the competition and all their tactics and pre match strategies have been nothing but a success so far. Their batting looked thin last game but Devdutt Padikkal’s blinder against the pathetic bowling attack of RR didn’t allow RCB’s batting to get tested but against a strong new ball attack like Chennai, it will be interesting to see how RCB’s openers go about their business.
CSK vs RCB IPL today match prediction
+ Deepak Chahar has been sensational with the new ball in the last 2 games.
+ Their openers were in great touch in the game against KKR and considering the bowling attack of RCB, there shouldn’t be much of a problem if they don’t lose their wickets to Mohammad Siraj
– Their death bowling is horrible.
– It will be interesting to see how CSK manages to restrict the opposition if Deepak Chahar doesn’t get the new ball wickets.
Royal Challengers Bangalore
+ Mohammad Siraj has been the best new ball bowler in this season so far.
+ Though they had surplus bowling option in the previous game against RR, Virat Kohli’s usage of his bowlers were brilliant.
– Their lower middle order looks thin and someone like Daniel Sams in place of Kane Richardson would serve better.
– Shahbaz Nadeem at #3 doesn’t inspire confidence as well.
CSK playing 11 (Likely)
Ruturaj Gaiwad, Faf du Plessis, Moeen Ali, Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, Sam Curran, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Lungi Ngidi

Who will win today IPL match
RCB are unbeaten in the tournament so far but this game might well be their first defeat of IPL 2020 as CSK are in red hot form as well. Deepak Chahar has been breaking the game inside powerplay for fun and he will hold key for CSK for one more time. RCB will need Devdutt Padikkal to show his full range for one more time against a much better bowling attack in CSK and if RCB’s openers can give their team a decent start, the likes of Glenn Maxwell and AB de Villiers might become doubly dangerous considering CSK’s death bowling department.
Bet365- CSK- 2.10, RCB- 1.72
