CSK vs RR Match Preview

This season has been disappointing for Chennai Super Kings. The five-time champion team is at the bottom of the points table this time. The team’s performance under the captaincy of Mahendra Singh Dhoni has also not been as expected. There has been a lack of consistency in both batting and bowling departments. There were a lot of expectations from foreign players like Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra, but they too could not show anything special. The team will need to work on its batting combination in the next auction.

At the same time, this season has been difficult for Rajasthan Royals as well. The departure of Jos Buttler from the team and the poor performance of Jofra Archer caused a lot of damage to the team. The team also lacked a good Indian fast bowler, who could put pressure on the opposition team. Under the captaincy of Sanju Samson, the team performed well in some matches, but they failed to maintain consistency. This is their last match of this season and they would like to gain some confidence by winning it.

Both the teams are out of the playoff race, so there will be no extra pressure on the players in this match. It is expected that both the teams will play freely and the audience will get to see an exciting match.
