🏏IPL 2022 M 22: Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bangalore🏏

Chennai Super Kings will take on the Royal Challengers Bangalore in an exciting contest at the Dr DY Patil Sports Academy in Navi Mumbai today.

Match 22 of IPL 2022 will see two highly-followed teams take on each other. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The defending champions and winless Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will lock horns with a high-flying Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), at the Dr. DY Patil Stadium, Mumbai today.

The clash will be a marquee affair as it reunites old friends and teammates.

Faf du Plessis will try to keep his emotions in check as he is will lead RCB against his previous franchise, which gave him thundering success for more than five years.

CSK skipper Ravindra Jadeja and former captain MS Dhoni will also reunite with Virat Kohli.

Thus, the match is sure to turn heads as cricket fans will be spoilt for choices with many big names involved in the CSK-RCB clash.

The Ravinder Jadeja led side is yet to register a win this season in the four games they have played and their campaign is likely to get only tougher from here on.

They brought Maheesh Theekshana into the playing XI in the previous game but he did not have much impact. U19 sensation Rajvardhan Hangargekar is likely to get his chance in the upcoming fixture.

On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore are on the right track with three wins in their last three games and have clicked in most of the departments.

However, they will expect a lot more from their skipper Faf du Plessis at the top of the order.

They have some of the best finishers available in the middle order.

Josh Hazlewood might come into the playing XI if he is available, while Harshal Patel has left the bio-bubble due to personal reasons and he will have to undergo isolation when he returns.

Yayyy thread aagaya🥳

Pitch Report

Chennai Super Kings played their previous game against SRH at the same ground and they would have assessed the conditions to some extent.

However, the conditions do differ in day fixtures from night ones, and there is a possibility of the dew factor playing a role in this game.

The last two games played at this ground saw scores being chased down easily and that could be the mantra for the captain that wins the toss.

Probable best batter of the Match: Moeen Ali

Moeen Ali played a handy knock in the previous game against SRH with a 35-ball 48, but could not capitalise on the opportunity to score big.

The all-rounder has been in good touch since his return into the playing XI for CSK.

However, he will need more support from the others to turn the fortunes for his side.

The left-hander has an immense role to play for CSK at number three, with the openers not having much of an impact so far.

Probable best bowler of the Match: Chris Jordan

Chris Jordan has been a great addition to the CSK side as he can be quite effective in the death overs with his yorkers and can crank up good speeds as well.

The England fast bowler conceded 34 in his three overs in the previous game, but he has the capability to provide breakthroughs at crucial times.

The speedster will be more useful once the skipper starts using him wisely and he will be keen to perform as well.

Hehe Madhu di u r funny, sadly both cant win

Talking about CSK, the Yellow Army has no end to their miseries.

With no Faf, Ruturaj Gaikwad hasn't found his rhythm and is facing the pressure at the top.

The likes of Moeen Ali, Robin Uthappa, and Ambati Rayudu also need to step up and be more consistent. Dhoni's presence and power-hitting are required for the Chennai setup whereas Jadeja will have to be more proactive and think out of the box to produce favourable results for his franchise.
