Chennai Super Kings will begin their IPL title and look for a winning start to a campaign that could potentially make them the most successful team in IPL history against a Royal Challengers Bengaluru outfit that will have added motivation and inspiration to end their title drought this year in the form of the historic WPL title win from Smriti Mandhana’s RCB.

But it is easier said than done, and Faf Du Plessis’s side will know it better than anybody else. In the 31 matches that the two teams have played in the IPL, CSK have won 20 of them, with RCB managing only 10. In that last match, in IPL 2023, CSK got the better of RCB by eight wickets at Chepauk. RCB, as always, has a solid batting unit, but the bowling will worry the Bengaluru side – primarily due to the lack of a proper spinner. In Cameron Green, they have a trump card, but Virat Kohli, Glenn Maxwell, and Faf will remain the key.

For CSK, as has been the norm, their bases are covered, and while all the talks revolve around MS Dhoni and this season being his swansong, in inclusion, supremely talented Rachin Ravindra makes this CSK line-up look threatening.
