CSK vs RCB : IPL 2024 Match 1: Match Prediction, H2H, Playing XI.

CSK vs RCB : IPL 2024 Match 1: The previous time both of these teams played each other, CSK overcame in a run-fest in front of a jampacked Bengaluru stadium.

Match Overview

When the reigning champion Chennai Super Kings play the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the opening match of the IPL 2024, all eyes will be on the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Friday, March 22. The previous time these clubs faced one other, CSK prevailed in a run-fest in front of a crammed Bengaluru stadium. RCB will enter the match warily, knowing that their record against CSK is not something to brag about.

It’s possible that Mahendra Singh Dhoni will retire after the 2024 Indian Premier League. CSK will benefit from the winning season of the previous year. They signed Daryll Mitchell and Rachi Ravindra for a steal thanks to their astute bidding technique. Nevertheless, RCB’s auction this year was uneven since they were unable to add notable players to their bowling lineup, something they appeared to have been lacking from earlier seasons.

CSK vs RCB : IPL 2024 Pitch Report

The Chepauk pitch has a sturdy pitch but shows signs of wear and tear. Consequently, it helps pacers who can get the variations as well as spinners. Because of the relatively modest bounce off the strip, batters will need to retrieve the runs. Regarding the weather, Friday night in Chennai will have clear skies and a high of about 29 degrees. The fact that the humidity does not appear to decrease from 75% may be a factor for the teams.
