• Date – Saturday, October 02, 2021

• Venue – Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi

RR vs CSK, 47th IPL Match Preview:

Rajasthan Royals batting is dependent on the young Indian talents - Samson & Yashasvi. Evin Lewis has also announced in the last match against RCB that he is also a destructive batter. Riyan Parag is yet to justify his selection in place of Shivam Dube. Mahipal Lomror also showed us earlier that he can play some shots.

Royals are badly missing a specialist spinner to partner with the specialist bowlers and create wicket chances. The only spinner in the team is Rahul Tewatia who is a part-timer. RR would think about bringing in Shamsi to compliment their consistent pace attack - Mustafizur Rehman, Chetan Sakariya, Kartik Tyagi & Chris Morris.

Chennai Super Kings top order has been a force to reckon with. Openers Gaikwad & du Plessis have been performing well in almost every match, Moeen Ali playing at #3 has been a boon for CSK. Ambati Rayudu has looked positive batting in the middle order. Suresh Raina needs to regain some form as he hasn't performed in this leg yet.

Chennai's bowling can be an even stronger unit than their batters - Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, Josh Hazlewood & DJ Bravo, supported by Jadeja & Moeen's spin.

RR vs CSK, 47th IPL Match Prediction:

Going by CSK's current form, they would be the obvious favourites to win this match. RR on the other hand need to win this match in order to keep their qualification chances alive.

RR vs CSK Head-to-Head:

• Total – 24
• Rajasthan Royals – 9
• Chennai Super Kings – 15
