CHE vs RAJ MPL Team: CSK is coming into this game after facing a loss in their last league match against DC. They have been rusty throughout the tournament and all the departments have not come altogether to contribute to the team’s performance. Although, Watson and Plessis gave a good platform for the middle order. The return of the form of Rayudu and the hitting of Jadeja would surely delight the team. The bowling department was not impressive and lacked the quality to pick crucial wickets in the match.

On the other side, the Rajasthan team has been dismal, especially in the batting department. Although in the last match, they contributed well enough to post a good total on the board, still it was not enough for the strong RCB team. The form of experienced players like Stokes and Samson is surely a worrying factor for the team. While Tewatia has been the best performer for the team with good contributions from both bat and ball. The onus will again lie on Archer and Tyagi to contain the opposition team. It will be interesting to see which team wins in the CSK vs RR fantasy team.

CHE vs RAJ MPL Fantasy Cricket Tips

Captain Choices

F Plessis- One of the main-stays of the CSK franchise has been the most consistent batsman over the years. In 9 matches, he has scored 365 runs and can be your captain choice in the CSK vs RR today match prediction. With him being the leader of the batting unit, the squad looks well-balanced and is capable to chase any target.

S Smith- One of the best batsmen in the modern era of the cricket-playing nations. Along with the leadership role, he has been impressive for the Rajasthan team with 220 runs in 9 matches. In the last match, he scored a half-century and his effort helped the RR to post a strong total on the board.

Vice-Captain choices

S Watson- One of Australia’s finest T20 batsman has always come to the rescue of the CSK team in crucial situations. In 9 matches, he has scored 277 runs and has picked up the momentum at the right time. Going into a must-win situation, he can be a helpful player due to his experience and abilities. In the last match, he had a good partnership with Plessis to help the team post a good target for the Delhi Capitals.

J Buttler- A player who has been one of the most important players for the England national team, is also a crucial player for the Rajasthan team in the top-order. In the match against MI, he scored 70 off 44 balls and this performance would surely keep him upbeat and can be your vice-captain choice in the CHE vs RAJ MPL prediction. In 8 matches, he has scored 192 runs and will look to improve the average to help the team in crucial situations.

X-factors

S Curran- A important player for the CSK team who has been contributing with both bat and ball in almost every match. He is an X-factor due to his amazing ball-striking and death bowling abilities. He has shown enough promise in the T20 Blast over the years. In 9 matches, he has scored 99 runs and picked up 10 wickets.

A Rahane- Possibly, he would not be in your Playing XI, still is a player who can stabilize the batting department of the team in a short span of time. In 2 matches, he has only scored 17 runs but would look to be a vital player for the team in the absence of Iyer. With good fielding skills, he can give you some extra points in the fantasy team.
