RCB vs CSK Match Preview:
In the 52nd match of the IPL 2025 on May 3rd, Royal Challengers Bengaluru will take on Chennai Super Kings at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru.
The hosts want to maintain their winning rhythm, the visitors want redemption, and expect excitement.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru have had a successful campaign so far as they are placed second in the points table with 7 wins out of 10 games.
The 6-wicket victory over Delhi Capitals further boosted their campaign, and especially Krunal Pandya, with both ball and bat.
On the other hand, Chennai Super Kings are having a dreadful season and are at the bottom of the table with two wins from ten games.
As it is, they come into this clash after a 4-wicket defeat to Punjab Kings, where Sam Curran’s brilliant knock went in vain.
Chennai Super Kings have historically been the better of the two by winning 22 of the 33 encounters, while Royal Challengers Bengaluru have won 11.
