CSK vs BLR Dream11 Key Players: By the time this game ends, Chennai Super Kings will have completed half of their regular-season fixtures, more than any other team. And there’s every possibility that a Dhoni-led team in the IPL, considering how they have been playing this season, could be in the bottom two, depending on the result of both games on Saturday. Unheard of. CSK are 6th heading into this match. But more importantly, this is the first time that Dhoni’s team looks unfit to challenge the top-four. Somehow, Stephen Fleming and Dhoni are still trying to find their best possible combination. But in a tournament as short as this, time is a luxury no one can afford. RCB are no immune to danger, despite them winning three times in the first five games. They are one of three teams clocking six points from the first five games but sit outside top four. That said, a win for Virat Kohli’s team could propel them into playoff zones.
Big Picks:
Virat Kohli: One of the best of this generation. Kohli has proven everything in his career, but on the captaincy front, he has still a lot to achieve. But we are talking about the sheer numbers he can fetch in this game as a batsman, and that’s like a surety, considering how good the 31-year-old really is. He should be selected either as captain or vice-captain in CSK vs RCB Dream11 Match Prediction. IPL Record: Matches: 182 Total Runs: 5545 Highest Score: 113 Strike-Rate: 130.99

Sam Curran: The Young Englishman has cemented his place in Chennai Super Kings’ playing 11.

He should be captain in at least one CSK vs RCB Today Match Prediction grand league team. IPL Record: Matches: 15 Wickets: 17 Strike-Rate: 19.41
Aaron Finch: RCB have at least locked down one of the opening batting spots with Finch on board. Though he could have better numbers this season, he remains critical in RCB’s set up this season.

AB de Villiers: No where near the level we all know he can consistently hit. Mr 360 degree is a player who RCB needs the most at this moment.
