Rajasthan Royals have had an excellent campaign thus far and are on the cusp of making the playoffs this season. RR head into this fixture on the back of two defeats in the last two games.

Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Ajinkya Rahane has had a disappointing campaign thus far as he has failed to hit the heights of last season. In the last five matches, Rahane has scored 1, 9, 29, 9 and 1 and so far this season he has scored 209 runs with an average of 19 which makes us believe he would struggle to score well in the upcoming game.
We expect this game to be a high scoring game as teams have struggled to defend big scores at the venue due to the dew factor at the venue. The average first innings score in Chennai is 183.55 which makes us believe total runs in the game would be extremely high in the upcoming game.
Match Prediction Best Odds
Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Match Toss Prediction
Historically the venue has favoured the team bowling first. Last three of the four matches have been won by the chasing team which makes us believe both sides would prefer to bowl first at the venue.

Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Betting Odds
Rajasthan Royals to have a better opening partnership than Chennai Super Kings
Rajasthan Royals and Chennai Super Kings go head to head in what feels like a must win game for both sides. One one hand, RR have dominated the group stages thus far and a win in the upcoming game could seal a top two spot on the points table. On the other hand, CSK have struggled for consistency in the second half of the campaign and need a win to keep things in their favour in regards securing a top four spot this season. CSK top order has failed to show up in the second half of the campaign which clearly has impacted CSK this season. In the last game against Gujarat Titans, CSK conceded 210 runs in the opening stand. On the other hand, even though RR has conceded a bigger opening stand in each of the last two games, we believe RR top order is far more settled and they would end up with a better opening partnership in the upcoming game.

Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Top Team Batters
Ruturaj Gaikwad to be Chennai Super Kings’ top batter
Even though Ruturaj Gaikwad did not have a great outing in the last game, we are still going to back him in the upcoming game as he has been the most consistent batsman for CSK and with 541 runs, he is the leading run scorer for CSK which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Sanju Samson to be Rajasthan Royals’ top batter
Even though Rajasthan Royals lost the last game against Delhi Capitals, Sanju Samson had a brilliant game as he scored 86 runs and was the top run scorer on the day. So far this season, Samson has scored 471 runs and has been the leading run scorer for RR which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Top Team Bowlers
Tushar Deshpande to be Chennai Super Kings’ top bowler
With the absence of Matheesha Pathirana and Deepak Chahar, the onus would be on Tushar Deshpande to lead the line for CSK this season and in the last game he did not disappoint as he ended up with the best bowling figures in the game against GT which makes him out top pick once again in the upcoming game.
Yuzvendra Chahal to be Rajasthan Royals’ top bowler
Even though Yuzvendra Chahal did not have a great outing in the last few games but that doesn’t change the fact he is one of the difference makers in the squad and on his day, he has the capacity to turn the game on its head. With 14 wickets, he is the leading wicket taker for RR which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
