The much-anticipated IPL 2025 clash between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) fans brace themselves for the head-to-head games against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) set for March 28, which will take place at the rapacious Chepauk stadium. The match will be captained by Ruturaj Gaikwad for CSK and Rajat Patidar for RCB. CSK has an edge against this as they have a record head-to-head win-loss ratio of 21-11 and an 8-1 record at Chepauk against an RCB squad that boasts the likes of Phil Salt and Virat Kohli.

The spin extremes of CSK in the upfront round are nobody else but Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, and Noor Ahmad, which will be a great asset in the middle order against an average bottom-tier RCB’s attack. Alongside it, it will also be vital for Gaikwad and Shivam Dube to smash the already scandalous illusory bowling prowess of RCB. 

It now awaits to be seen if RCB actually has it within itself to rise above from the shackles of CSK’s almighty power, especially with Chepauk seeming near impossible to breach.
