Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Royals Prediction & Betting Tips 2022

After having a turbulent season last time, Chennai Super Kings have turned the tables this time losing only two games out of the seven matches they played. The opening pair of Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway have been prolific with the willow racking up 270 and 314 runs respectively. Also, ever since Ajinkya Rahane has been included in the squad he looks like a completely transformed batter pulling out every modern short like reverse scoop. He has amassed 209 runs from five innings with a strike rate of 199.04. Tushar Deshpande has picked 12 wickets so far while Ravindra Jadeja took 10 wickets across seven innings and are the top two wicket takers for the team. The bowling is an area where CSK would need some more improvement but batters are displaying a solid performance to secure wins.

Rajasthan have won four matches out of seven in the season so far but they would like to come out of the losing momentum after suffering defeat in the first two matches. Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal have been the top two batters scoring 277 and 244 runs respectively with an average of 34.85 and 32.42.

Also, they have a winning momentum on their side winning four games out of their last five with three in a row.
