IPL 2025: Match 62, CSK vs RR Cricket Match Prediction - Who will win today's match between CSK vs RR of IPL 2025?

Match Preview

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will face the Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, in a match that, while devoid of playoff implications, holds significance for both teams aiming to end their seasons on a positive note. The match is scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM IST.

 

Chennai Super Kings

CSK, currently at the bottom of the table with just three wins from 12 matches, have had a challenging season marked by inconsistent performances. However, the emergence of young talents like Ayush Mhatre and Dewald Brevis offers a silver lining, suggesting a potential shift towards nurturing fresh talent for future campaigns. 

 

Rajasthan Royals

On the other hand, the Rajasthan Royals, positioned ninth with six points, are looking to conclude their season with a victory. Despite a promising start, RR's campaign faltered due to a series of narrow losses and underwhelming performances from their middle order. Nevertheless, the consistent form of opener Yashasvi Jaiswal, who has amassed 523 runs in 13 games, and the emergence of Vaibhav Sooryavanshi as a potent force in the top order, provide optimism for the future.
