Their batting and bowling looked strong in their last game, and they will be hoping to continue that performance against RCB. Pitch Report – M. Chinnaswamy Stadium The pitch at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is known for being batting-friendly. The short boundaries and fast outfield make it easy for batters to score runs.

IPL 2025: RR vs CSK Match 11 Prediction – Who Will Win Today’s Clash?

/

Match Overview The Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are set to face off in Match 11 of IPL 2025 on Sunday, March 30, at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. RR has had a tough start to their campaign, losing both of their opening matches, while CSK has managed one win and one loss in their first two games. This match will be crucial for both teams to gain momentum in the tournament. RR’s Performance So Far Rajasthan Royals, led by Riyan Parag in the absence of full-time captain Sanju Samson (who is recovering from a finger injury), have struggled in their first two games. In their opening match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, RR’s bowling attack colapsed as SRH posted a record 286/6. Despite a good effort from Samson and Dhruv Jurel, RR fell short by 44 runs. In their next game against Kolkata Knight Riders, RR managed only 151 runs while batting first, which KKR chased down comfortably. With a weakened bowling attack and inconsistent batting, RR will be hoping to turn things around against CSK.  CSK’s Performance So Far CSK started their campaign on a strong note, defeating Mumbai Indians by four wickets. Spinner Noor Ahmad was the standout performer, taking four wickets to dismantle MI’s batting lineup. However, CSK faced a setback in their next game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), where they lost by 50 runs. Despite a strong batting lineup, CSK failed to keep up with the high required run rate and suffered a defeat.  Pitch Report:   The pitch at Barsapara Cricket Stadium is known for its batting-friendly conditions. With an average run rate of 8.57 in IPL matches played here, high scores can be expected. However, spinners will have a role to play, especially in the middle overs, as the surface is slightly dry. Fast bowlers might not get much seam movement, but they can still be effective with variations.  Head-to-Head Record Total Matches Played:   29 Rajasthan Royals Wins:  13 Chennai Super Kings Wins:  16 No Result:   1  Predicted Playing XIs  Rajasthan Royals (RR):  Yashasvi Jaiswal Sanju Samson (Impact Player) Nitish Rana Riyan Parag (C) Dhruv Jurel (WK) Shimron Hetmyer  Wanindu Hasaranga Jofra Archer Maheesh Theekshana  Tushar Deshpande Sandeep Sharma  Chennai Super Kings (CSK):  Rachin Ravindra Rahul Tripathi Ruturaj Gaikwad (C)  Deepak Hooda Sam Curran  Ravindra Jadeja  MS Dhoni (WK)  Ravichandran Ashwin  Noor Ahmad Matheesha Pathirana  Khaleel Ahmed  Key Players to Watch  Best Batter Prediction RR:  Sanju Samson, Dhruv Jurel CSK: Rachin Ravindra, Ruturaj Gaikwad  Best Bowler Prediction RR:  Maheesh Theekshana, Wanindu Hasaranga CSK:  Noor Ahmad, Khaleel Ahmed Match Prediction: Who Will Win? Looking at the current form and squad strength, CSK appears to have a slight edge over RR. Their bowling attack, led by Noor Ahmad, has been in fine form, and their batting unit has the depth to chase down any target. However, RR will be desperate for their first win of the season and could put up a strong fight. Prediction: Chennai Super Kings are favorites to win this match, but Rajasthan Royals can pull off an upset if their key players step up. Stay tuned for live updates and enjoy the thrilling contest between RR and CSK!

IPL 2025 Match 3 Chennai Super Kings (CSK) vs Mumbai Indians (MI)-Pre-Match Analysis

/

  IPL 2025 CSK VS MI Match Details: Date:  23, March 2025 Time: 7:30 IST Venue:  MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. … Live Streaming: Star Sports and Jio Hotstar   Toss: Toss may play a crucial role here at Chennai due to dew factor and slow wicket.   Pitch Report:  MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai is historically considered slow track and might help spiners and both the teams may pick three spiners in their XIs.Dew was a major factor here in IPL 2024 but new rules in the tournament to change ball might help to counter that factor.     Previous Ground Records: Total Matches Played: 85 Matches Won Batting First: 49 (57.65%) Matches Won Bowling First: 36 (42.35%)  Highest individual Score: 127 M Vijay (Chennai Super Kings) 03/04/2010 v Rajasthan Royals Best Bowling: 5 wkts 5runs in 4 overs by A Madhwal (Mumbai Indians) 24/05/2023 v Lucknow Super Giants  Lowest Score: 70 (Royal Challengers Bengaluru) vs Chennai Super Kings   Probable Playing XI  Mumbai Indians: 1 Rohit Sharma, 2 Ryan Rickelton (wk), 3 Tilak Varma, 4 Suryakumar Yadav (capt), 5 Naman Dhir, 6 Robin Minz, 7 Mitchell Santner, 8 Corbin Bosch/Mujeeb Ur Rahman, 9 Deepak Chahar, 10 Karn Sharma, 11 Trent Boult, 12 Satyanarayana Raju/Ashwani Kumar   Probable Playing XI  Chennai Super Kings: 1 Devon Conway/Rachin Ravindra, 2 Ruturaj Gaikwad (capt), 3 Rahul Tripathi, 4 Deepak Hooda/Vijay Shankar, 5 Shivam Dube, 6 Sam Curran, 7 Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk), 9 R Ashwin, 10 Noor Ahmad, 11 Matheesha Pathirana, 12 Khaleel Ahmed/Anshul Kamboj   Key Stats to Look Out: Boult has been seen always tough for  Gaikwad, having dismissed him three times in 26 balls in the IPL for only 23 runs. Suryakumar has also struggled against Jadeja being dismissed 3 times  in the IPL, managing 45 runs in 59 balls at a strike rate of less than 77. Ashwin is the leading wicket-taker at Chepauk in the IPL with 50 strikes in 42 innings at an economy rate of 6.26. CSK have won five of their last six matches against MI, including three on the trot. Head-to-Head Record: Total Matches Played: 37 CSK Wins:  20 MI  Wins:  17 No Result: 0 Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) are two of the best teams in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Both have won the IPL trophy five times, more than any other team. They’ll play against each other on the first weekend of the new IPL season. This match is special because these teams have a long and exciting history.   Things have changed recently. For many years, fans loved watching MS Dhoni lead CSK and Rohit Sharma lead MI. But in 2024, new captains took over—Ruturaj Gaikwad for CSK and Hardik Pandya for MI. Last year both teams were not able to win the trophy. CSK almost made it to the playoffs, but MI finished last. MI fans were upset with Hardik. Now, Hardik has won back some fans by helping India win big tournaments like the T20 World Cup. But he can’t play in this Sunday’s match because of a rule he broke last season. Suryakumar Yadav will lead MI instead. Also, MI’s star bowler Jasprit Bumrah is injured and might not play until April. Losing these two players is a big problem for MI. How will they manage? MI also has a tough record they haven’t won their first match of the season since 2012! Their coach, Mahela Jayawardene, knows this and is already thinking about it. CSK, on the other hand, loves playing at their home ground, Chepauk, where the pitch helps spin bowlers. They’ve picked lots of spinners like R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja to do well there. A young bowler, Noor Ahmad, might also shine with his tricky left-arm spin.   When MS Dhoni came to Chennai last month, fans went wild with excitement. If he hits big sixes again this season, like he did last year, the crowd will go crazy! The match at Chepauk will have tons of fans watching because the gates are open to everyone.

IPL 2025 Match 2 Sunrisers Hyderabad vs Rajasthan Royal-Pre-Match Analysis

/

IPL 2025 SRH VS RR Match Details: Date:  23, March 2025 Time: 3:30 IST Venue:  Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium, Hyderabad Live Streaming: Star Sports and Jio Hotstar   Toss: This ground is great for batting. The pitch is flat at the beginning, making it easy for batters to score runs. In the second innings, the ball starts to turn, helping the bowlers. So, the team that wins the toss will likely choose to bat first.     Pitch Report: The Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium in Hyderabad is a good place for batting. Batters can play their shots easily. Fast bowlers don’t get much help from the pitch and have to work hard to perform well. Spinners, on the other hand, have done well and enjoyed bowling here.     Previous Ground Records: Total Matches Played: 77 Matches Won Batting First: 34 Matches Won Bowling First: 43  Highest Score: 277/3 by SRH  Lowest Score: 80 BY Delhi Capitals   Probable Playing XI Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH)   Pat Cummins (c), Abhishek Sharma, Travis Head, Ishan Kishan, Heinrich Klaasen (wk), Nitish Reddy, Abhinav Manohar, Harshal Patel, Wiaan Mulder, Mohammed Shami, Rahul Chahar, Sachin Baby    Probable Playing XI Rajasthan Royals (RR) IN IPL Riyan Parag (c), Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, Nitish Rana, Shimron Hetmyer, Dhruv Jurel (wk), Wanindu Hasaranga, Tushar Deshpande, Jofra Archer, Maheesh Theekshana, Sandeep Sharma, Sanju Samson      Key Players to Watch: Sunrisers Hyderabad:  Heinrich Klaasen, Mohammad Shami, Travis Head  Rajasthan Royals: Yashasvi Jaiswal , Maheesh Theekshana, Riyan Parag   Head-to-Head Record: Total Matches Played: 20 SRH Wins:  11 RR Wins:  9 No Result: 0     Prediction: Both Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) are strong teams with their own strengths. SRH often relies on its balanced bowling attack, especially their spinners, who can be effective on slower tracks like Hyderabad. Their batting lineup has been improving, with dependable players who can accelerate in the middle overs.   On the other hand, RR boasts a solid batting order, with aggressive players who can dominate the powerplay. Their captain, Sanju Samson, is a key figure who can change the game. RR’s bowlers, especially their spinners, can be quite effective in the latter stages.   If the pitch favors batting, RR might have the upper hand due to their explosive batting lineup. However, if it slows down and offers turn, SRH’s bowlers could make a significant impact. The toss will also play a crucial role — teams may prefer to bat first to set a challenging target.   Overall, it could be a close contest. If SRH’s bowlers find their rhythm, they have a strong chance. But if RR’s batters take charge early, they might edge ahead. It’ll come down to which team handles the pressure better on the day.   Disclaimer*: This is a personal opinion-based prediction. Actual results may vary.
