The stage is set for a crucial encounter between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium. With both teams having won one match each in their head-to-head clashes this season, this promises to be an evenly contested battle. CSK come into this match with mixed form (WLLLL in last 5), while RR have struggled recently (LLLWL).
The pitch at this venue has shown a tendency to assist pacers early on, with spinners coming into play during middle overs. Teams batting first have averaged 180-190 this season, making the toss potentially crucial given the dew factor in night games. Key matchups to watch include CSK's spinners against RR's power-hitters and the battle between RR's pace attack and CSK's top order.
