RCB vs CSK, IPL 2025: Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni, in all probability, may face-off for the last time in the Indian Premier League (IPL) when Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on Saturday. RCB will hope for another victory to increase their chances of finishing in the top two, since they are virtually guaranteed a spot in the playoffs.
CSK, on the other hand, were the first to be eliminated this season. With just two victories from ten games, the five-time champions are wallowing at the bottom of the standings. Even though they are not in the contention for the playoffs, CSK will eye a victory against RCB to not only cap off their season on a winning note but also spoil the equations for other teams.
With three straight victories, including one at home, RCB have been playing well lately and their most recent victory over the Punjab Kings was noteworthy. With a victory over CSK, RCB might secure their spot in the playoffs and take the top spot in the table.
RCB vs CSK, IPL 2025: What to expect
The flat surface in Bengaluru can be exploited by RCB's potent batting, which is led by Phil Salt and Virat Kohli. R Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, and Ravindra Jadeja all support CSK's very strong spin attack, that can come handy in the middle overs.
The Bengaluru match between RCB and CSK is not anticipated to be interrupted by rain. The temperature is expected to hover around 22-33 degrees Celsius.
