RR vs CSK Match 3 Preview
Two proper cricket teams. Two fanbases that never sleep. This is one of the most anticipated clashes of the early IPL 2026 window.
Rajasthan Royals come in with Riyan Parag leading the side. Yashasvi Jaiswal at the top is in brilliant form, averaging nearly 51 in his last 10 T20 matches at a strike rate of 167. Jofra Archer spearheads the pace attack and is back in the IPL after years away. Ravi Bishnoi and Ravindra Jadeja give them serious spin depth.
Chennai Super Kings are led by Ruturaj Gaikwad. Sanju Samson keeps wicket and adds firepower at the top. Young Ayush Mhatre has been electric in recent cricket with a strike rate touching 189 in his last seven matches. Noor Ahmad leads their spin attack and has been one of the most consistent T20 bowlers around, taking 14 wickets in his last 10 games at an economy of 8.29.
MS Dhoni is in the squad. Guwahati crowd will go absolutely wild if he walks in.
Key players to watch tonight:
- Yashasvi Jaiswal (RR): Best young opener in T20 cricket right now. Will target the powerplay hard

- Be a decent batting surface once the new ball loses its shine
- Play true without major turn, though spinners can be effective in the second innings
- Teams have generally preferred chasing at this venue
The Guwahati crowd is passionate and completely behind RR given the Northeast connection. Expect a full house and an incredible atmosphere tonight.
