The Chennai Super Kings will take on the Rajasthan Royals in the 17th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 on Wednesday (April 12). MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai will be hosting this clash.
Chennai Super Kings lost their opening game against the Gujarat Titans but turned the tables around quickly. They beat the Lucknow Super Giants in their next game and followed it by coming out on top against the Mumbai Indians in Mumbai.
Bowling first, Ravindra Jadeja finished with figures of 3/20 in his four overs as it helped them restrict the Mumbai Indians to 157/8. Ajinkya Rahane played an outstanding knock of 61 off just 27 balls to help his side chase down the total in the penultimate over. They will be high in confidence and will be eager to carry the winning momentum forward.
Rajasthan Royals, on the other hand, won their opening game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad but lost the next game. They got back to winning ways by beating the Delhi Capitals comprehensively in their third fixture.
After being asked to bat first, fifties from Yashasvi Jaiswal (60) and Jos Buttler (79) helped the Royals post 199 on the board. Trent Boult and Yuzvendra Chahal picked up three wickets each as they restricted the Capitals to 142/9 to win the game by 57 runs. The Royals will be looking to keep performing in a similar manner in their upcoming fixtures.
