Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru IPL Match: Detailed Overview, Key Insights and Playing Conditions: After a dominant win over the Mumbai Indians, the Chennai Super Kings are set to host the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their second game of the IPL 2025. The South Indian rivals will face each other at the MA Chidambaram Stadium at Chepuak on Friday, March 28. CSK crashed out of the last IPL after losing their final league game to RCB. The Yellow Army, led by Ruturaj Gaikwad, will be keen to pay it back this time on home soil. Similar to CSK, RCB have opened their campaign on a triumphant note, beating Kolkata Knight Riders by seven wickets in an away game. Virat Kohli struck an unbeaten half-century while chasing 175 at Eden Gardens. Opener Phil Salt also appeared in sublime form and scored a 31-ball 56 to give RCB a perfect start. Krunal Pandya wrapped up as their best bowler with a three-wicket haul. CSK, on the other hand, sealed the deal against MI on the back of an exceptional bowling show. Noor Ahmad led the charts with four wickets, while Khaleel Ahmed dismissed both the opposition openers with the new ball. Coming to chase, captain Ruturaj Gaikwad stepped up with a blazing 56, with his knock comprising six boundaries and three sixes. Rachin Ravindra anchored the innings and stayed not out at 65 as CSK completed the chase with five balls in hand. MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report: The pitch at Chepauk did justice to its reputation in the last IPL match that was hosted at the venue. Spinners mostly dominated the actions, with CSK’s Noor Ahmad and MI’s Vignesh Puthur sharing seven wickets. The conditions are likely to remain unchanged during the upcoming game between CSK and RCB, scheduled for March 28. Chennai Weather Forecast: The weather in Chennai may remain partly cloudy and humid on Friday. Rain, however, is unlikely to play spoilsport in the CSK vs RCB IPL clash. The wind speed is expected to be around 18-20 km/h on the matchday, while the temperature could hover around 26 degrees Celsius to 36 degrees Celsius. The humidity is predicted to be around 62-82 percent.
