Both teams are very competitive, which is why the IPL Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru match on March 28 in MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is set to be a blast of an encounter. Here are three key players to watch a preview of this exciting clash.
1. Virat Kohli (RCB)
Kohli’s batting brilliance remains a constant danger. he’s a batting threat spanning from middle to end overs. A showcased example of this masterclass was on the 22nd of March, against KKR, in which RCB opened IPL 2025 with him singlehandedly smashing 59 runs off 36 balls, with RCB beating KKR by 7 wickets, a harsh boasting blow to his pole strikers. His injury concerns him; he fried an easily inviting 174 runs, and attacking him is counterproductive.

2. Rachin Ravindra (CSK)
This dynamic all-rounder has emerged as a cornerstone for CSK with his aggressive batting and crafty spin. Ravindra has become a zippy performer for the CSK team. No big change from the last game after Ravindra had scored 65 runs off 45 balls and took 1/25, despite the 4-wicket win chasing MI’s 155/9 (CSK 158/6). His form is likely to give a tough time to RCB on a surface that suits spinners.
3. Ruturaj Gaikwad (CSK)
Gaikwad’s calm head as an elegant opener will be vital against RCB’s quick bowlers. In the match against MI, he scored 53 runs off 26 runs and had stabilized the innings but could not see them over the line. His clash with RCB bowlers such as Josh Hazlewood could determine how CSK fares.

Although RCB thugs lead the encounters 21-11 in 33 matches, his 27-run win in the last IPL 2024 meeting makes it interesting. With RCB thumping KKR and CSK nudging past MI, this match combines CSK’s Chepauk magic and RCB’s energy, which will be a thriller.
