CSK vs RR in IPL 2021: Can Sanju Samson’s Rajasthan make it three in row against MS Dhoni’s Chennai?:The Royals are off the mark in this year’s IPL, having registered a thrilling last-over win over the Delhi Capitals. With that first win off their backs, the men in pink will now set their sights on Chennai Super Kings, as they look to register back-to-back wins early in the tournament.
Venue Talk
After serving run-fests in the first few games, the Wankhede has spiced things up with the ball, with the past few scores all being under 150. The ball’s been doing a bit and all of a sudden it’s the batters who’ve had to do some thinking and this game could well serve another tasty treat for the bowlers.
Opposition Chatter
The Super Kings registered their first win of the season against Punjab and were set up brilliantly by their bowlers, led by Deepak Chahar. The Royals did a double over the Yellow Army last season, winning matches on two very different surfaces in the UAE. Chennai, like the Royals, are also looking for their second win on the bounce and would once again hope for their bowlers to do the job for them early on in the innings.
The Big Talking Point
Both teams are coming off important wins and would like to continue the momentum forward.
Word From The Camp
Chris Morris: “Our preparation for Chennai is going to remain the same. Yeah, we have certain plans for certain players but overall our preparations will remain the same. You’ve got to deal with the task in hand and take it one game at a time. The turnaround is quick in this tournament and our focus is on recovering well and moving on, our last game was a good win and we’re happy with that but we’ll need to quickly shift our focus to the challenge that Chennai is going to throw at us.”
