ACA Stadium will host a match between the Rajasthan Royals (RR) and the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) on Sunday, March 30. It is the second home game of the season for RR, who suffered a defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Guwahati a few days ago.

Riyan Parag will lead RR. The new skipper has not been that impressive in his first two matches as the team's captain. Meanwhile, CSK will play under the leadership of Ruturaj Gaikwad. CSK recently lost to the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Chennai.

Both teams will be desperate for a win in Guwahati. Ahead of the big game, here's a glance at the venue's pitch history and IPL records.

ACA Stadium, Guwahati pitch report

The Guwahati pitch report will be broadcast live from the ACA Stadium before Riyan Parag and Ruturaj Gaikwad walk out for the toss. Generally, the pitch in Guwahati is not that easy for batting.

Pacers and spinners did a great job in the previous match hosted by this venue. Anything around 180 should be a defendable target.
