With both teams already eliminated from playoff contention, this match is all about salvaging pride and ending the season on a high.
CSK, currently placed at the bottom of the points table with only 3 wins from 12 games, showed some spark in their previous outing. After a dismal four-match losing streak, they bounced back strongly by defeating defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders in a high-scoring run chase.
Chasing 180, CSK crossed the finish line with two balls to spare, keeping their morale intact for the final game.
RR, too, have endured a forgettable season. Sitting at the 9th spot with 3 wins from 13 games, the Royals suffered a narrow 10-run defeat in their last match against Punjab Kings.
Despite a strong start to their chase of 220, RR’s middle-order woes continued as they crumbled under pressure once again.
With no playoff hopes left, both teams will be eyeing a morale-boosting win to close out their campaign.
