Hopes were high for the Royals after beating Punjab Kings in their opening game of the UAE leg of the 2021 IPL. However, since that victory they have been beaten three games on the bounce and now find themselves in a must win situation.
RR Key Players
- Evin Lewis - The West Indian opener only joined up with Rajasthan Royals for the UAE fixtures but has impressed and has hit 17 boundaries.
- Sanju Samson - The captain has had a tough job leading a much changed side throughout the tournament. However, he has made 452 runs and averages over 50.
- Mustafizur Rahman - The left-arm pace bowler has picked up wickets in each of the last three games.
Rajasthan Royals are on a bad run but if they can turn the three straight defeats into three straight victories then a play-off berth should be theirs.
RR Predicted Playing 11
Evin Lewis, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (c) (wk), Liam Livingstone, Mahipal Lomror, Riyan Parag, Rahul Tewatia, Chris Morris, Kartik Tyagi, Chetan Sakariya, Mustafizur Rahman

Dwayne Bravo returned to the CSK side on Thursday after missing out in the win against KKR on Sunday. Sam Curran missed out as a result and we expect Bravo to retain his place for this match. CSK have a very consistent and talented bowling attack.
CSK Key Players
- Faf du Plessis - Only Shikhar Dhawan and Sanju Samson have scored more runs in the IPL 2021 than du Plessis. He has hit 58 boundaries in the competition.
- Josh Hazlewood - The reliable Australian pace bowler took 3-24 against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Thursday. He provides a point of difference in a bowling attack of pace-off bowlers.
- Dwayne Bravo - The West Indian all-rounder continues to put in top drawer performances on a consistent basis. He took 2 wickets and had the best economy rate of the bowling unit.
With four consecutive victories and sitting proud at the top of the IPL table, CSK are setting the standards in the tournament.
