Rajasthan Royals (RR) will take the field against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in match 11 of IPL 2025 at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati on Sunday (March 30). RR will look to open their account this season in the RR vs CSK game.

Chennai Super Kings will look to register their second win of IPL 2025 in the match after winning the first game against MI, and would like their middle order to contribute more.

The Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side found themselves in a tricky situation in the closing stage of the last match, losing back-to-back wickets, and would like to rectify the error in the clash.

CSK Playing 11 vs Rajasthan Royals- IPL 2025, Match 11:

Openers: Rachin Ravindra and Rahul Tripathi

Rachin Ravindra will open with Rahul Tripathi in the match. Tripathi would like to score some runs in the upcoming match following his failure in the first match after coming in as an impact substitute.

Rachin, on the other hand, would like to continue the form that he was in against the Mumbai Indians and would look to play another match-winning innings in the clash.

A lot will depend on how the Chennai Super Kings' openers play in the first six overs of the match, considering the slow nature of the surface that was on offer in the first game at this venue.

Middle-order batsmen and all-rounders: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Shivam Dube, Deepak Hooda, Sam Curran, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk)

The opening duo of Ravindra and Tripathi will be followed by captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and Shivam Dube, both of whom will play an integral part in the encounter due to their ability to play spin well.

The only area for Chennai Super Kings in the game would be their middle order comprising Deepak Hooda, Sam Curran, and Ravindra Jadeja, who failed to deliver in the first match against MI and would like to redeem themselves in the upcoming match

Bowlers: Ravichandran Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, Nathan Ellis, Khaleel Ahmed

CSK would hope their bowlers continue the good work in the RR vs CSK clash on Sunday, as they did against MI in their season opener by restricting them below the score of 160 on a tricky wicket at Chepauk.

The onus will be on the spin trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Noor Ahmed to ensure that the opposition is restricted to a chaseable total in the RR vs CSK game, who will be supported by the fast bowlers.
