CSK vs RR Toss Factor

The results of the games played here show that the toss has played a significant role. The team that fielded first won 66 per cent of the games, which will be a factor in the skippers' minds when they walk out for the coin flip. 

Scenario: If Chennai Super Kings win the toss

  • The CSK team will look to field first on winning the toss. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube will play crucial roles for the team in the chase. These two batters could be the safest C or VC choices from the CSK team. 
  • Ravindra Jadeja and Mitchell Santner could be good choices for the CSK bowling, as this is a day game, and there will be more help for the spinners on the wicket. 

Scenario: If Rajasthan Royals win the toss 

  • The Royals' batting line-up has depth, and Sanju will look to chase, showing trust in his batters. Sanju Samson, himself and Riyan Parag will be essential for the team in a chase. If you are willing to take risks, you can also select Jos Buttler or Yashasvi Jaiswal as your C or VC. 
  • If you are looking for an RR bowler to make your C or VC, Yuzvendra Chahal could be the option.

Ruturaj Gaikwad (CSK)

The CSK skipper did not have a great start to the tournament with the bat. But Ruturaj Gaikwad picked up his form and is currently the highest run scorer for his team. Gaikwad will be the safest choice as the C or VC for this game. 

Shivam Dube (CSK)

This middle-order left-handed batter has been the mainstay of the CSK middle order in IPL 2024. However, Shivam Dube has not been at his best in the last few matches. But considering his rhythm, Dube will be a safe choice as C or VC. 

Scenario: If Rajasthan Royals win the match

Sanju Samson (RR)

The RR-skipper has been in fine form throughout the tournament. Sanju Samson's consistency makes him one of the safer choices for the fantasy contests of the match. 

Yuzvendra Chahal (RR)

The Indian spinner has been in good form throughout the tournament. Yuzvendra Chahal is currently the highest wicket-taker in the tournament. Given the slow nature of the pitch, Chahal will be a good choice for the fantasy contests. 


CSK vs RR High Risk, High Rewards

Ravindra Jadeja (CSK)

The Indian all-rounder has not been in great form in the tournament. Though he has produced a couple of good shows, Ravindra Jadeja needs to improve his consistency. But he could be influential on the Chepauk wicket and thus will be a good choice for the fantasy contests.  

Riyan Parag (RR)

The Indian middle-order batter has been in good form throughout the tournament. Riyan Parag has delivered under pressure. But sometimes, he throws his wicket away, making him a risky choice as the C or VC. 


CSK vs RR Stay Aways

Ajinkya Rahane (CSK)

The veteran Indian batter has not delivered even after getting regular chances. In his current form, it is better to stay from Ajinkya Rahane as the C or VC of the match.

Rovman Powell (RR)

The Royals have trusted the West Indian finisher in this tournament to give them strong finishes. But barring a couple of cameos, Rovman Powell has not been too impactful. Avoiding Powell as the C or VC for the game could be beneficial.
