Royal Challengers Bangalore Preview
With the women’s team creating history in the WPL 2024, the Royal Challengers Bangalore men’s team are also expected to produce a big performance in IPL 2024. Virat Kohli and skipper Faf du Plessis starred with big performances last season, with both batters scoring over 600 runs.
They have made some terrific acquisitions in Cameron Green, Lockie Ferguson and Alzarri Joseph, who strengthen their overseas core further.
The addition of Cameron Green to the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) lineup for IPL 2024 brings an exciting dimension to their batting and all-round capabilities. Green, having amassed 452 runs in IPL 2023 at an impressive average of 50, demonstrates his ability to contribute significantly with the bat.
Lockie Ferguson, with his scorching pace and knack for clinching pivotal wickets, stands as a quintessential figure in the T20 arena. His blistering speed, which consistently ranges between 145 to 150 kph, combined with a deadly assortment of yorkers and sharp bouncers, has culminated in his impressive best figures of 4/28 in a single innings, highlighting his capacity to orchestrate game-changing performances.
With Ferguson, Cameron Green, and Alzarri Joseph joining forces with seasoned campaigners like Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis, RCB has significantly enhanced its team composition, aiming for a balanced and formidable unit capable of contending for the title.

CSK Vs RCB Venue, Pitch and Weather Report
The M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai, also known as Chepauk, is renowned for its spinner-friendly pitch, presents a stark contrast in bowling economies, with spinners conceding an average of just 7.04 runs per over, compared to pacers who give away 8.05 runs per over, underscoring the advantage spin bowling has at this venue.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) could have a strategic advantage over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) due to their arsenal of proficient spinners. While RCB might rely on part-time spinners, CSK's lineup of exceptional spin bowlers could play a pivotal role in exploiting the pitch's characteristics.
The weather is mostly sunny at 36°C in the shade and dropping to 29c at night, accompanied by an east-southeast wind blowing at 20 km/h, gusting up to 35 km/h. The humidity stands at 61%, with a dew point of 24°C, and the probability of precipitation is low at 1%, under a sky with just 14% cloud cover.
The relatively high dew point suggests that, especially in the evening, dew could become a factor, making the ball slippery and difficult for bowlers to grip. Teams winning the toss might prefer to bowl first to avoid bowling in dewy conditions later.
CSK Vs RCB Match Winner Prediction
If you are wondering who will win today's match, Chennai Super Kings will enter the match as the favourites but RCB are likely to win this contest considering the batting firepower in their team.
