Team News:
Chennai Super Kings: Lungi Ngidi has finally joined the squad but it is most probable that CSK would be sticking to the same team which emerged victorious in the last game. Robin Uthappa can replace Ruturaj Gaikwad as he struggled scoring runs in the last match against Punjab Kings.
Probable XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad/Robin Uthappa, Faf du Plessis, Moeen Ali, Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Sam Curran, MS Dhoni (wk/c), Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar.
Rajasthan Royals: Jofra Archer is still recovering from the surgery and has only got permission for light training, so, he won't be available for this match. David Miller has already been added in place of Ben Stokes as Stokes suffered an injury and will not be playing any of the matches of IPL 2021. Chris Morris has been fabulous with the ball against CSK and can play a crucial role in the match. Chris Morris has bagged 9 wickets in 5 matches against CSK. Yashasvi Jaiswal is also an option for opening in place of Manan Vohra for Rajasthan Royals.
Probable XI: Manan Vohra/Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson (wk/c), Shivam Dube, David Miller, Riyan Parag, Rahul Tewatia, Chris Morris, Jaydev Unadkat, Chetan Sakariya, Mustafizur Rahman.
