RCB vs CSK – Here, the ESPALACE team is going to inform you like Preview, H2H, Playing 22, Live Scorecard, Live Streaming and all other important points of the match.
Preview
There was barely a flicker of expectation for Royal Challengers Bengaluru when they returned home after a beatdown in Mumbai; the fifth loss in six games to start the season was pronounced as the end of their campaign. Director of Cricket Mo Bobat was also asked if the remainder of the tournament was a unique free pass to build for 2025. He admitted to the team’s failings but responded in the negative.
The forecast notwithstanding, RCB’s final home game of the season is no longer fraught with the hopelessness that surrounded the build-up to that SRH game a month ago. Then, they were happy to finish within 25 runs of a record total. Reasons to be fearful are fewer this time with both arms to their game syncing in harmony. That CSK’s batting has lost some of the zing from last year and that their bowling has lost key personnel ought to bring an added dose of optimism for RCB.
Scenarios: An NRR game on RCB’s hands
RCB have to win at least by a margin of 18 runs if they bat first i.e if they score 200, they’ll have to restrict CSK to 182 or less. This bat-first scenario doesn’t change even in a truncated five-over contest: if they make 75 in a five-over contest, they’ll need to restrict the opposition to 57 or less, failing which CSK will go through.
If RCB are batting second and CSK post 200, the hosts will have to get to 201 with 11 or more balls to spare. If they hit a six from 200, they can complete the chase with up to 8 balls to spare. The chasing equation gets complicated in a truncated game. A target of 75 in a five-over clash, for example, will have to be chased down in 3.1 overs for their NRR to go above CSK’s.
This promises to be a nail-biting encounter, where every ball could be the turning point. So, buckle up, cricket fans, and get ready for a T20 extravaganza!

A start-stop game. There is an 80% forecast for rain that is expected to hit Bengaluru CBD around match-start time. The sub-surface aeration at the stadium should facilitate a quick restart. The six games here have been split in the middle between wins for target setting and chasing teams.
Head to Head: RCB 10 – 21 CSK. The Super Kings have won each of their last three as well as five of the last six contests against RCB. Only MI has more wins against a single opponent (23 vs KKR) than CSK’s 21 wins against RCB.
