Royal Challengers Bangalore has 14 points from 10 matches and is at the third position in the points table. This season their batting, as well as bowling, have been top class and all their big players Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers, Yuzvendra Chahal, Chris Morris, and youngsters Navdeep Saini and Devdutt Padikkal are giving their best. Although they need to strengthen their lower order and they will also hope that Aaron Finch will come back in form in this match.
On the other hand, Chennai Super Kings have only 6 points from 11 matches and are at the bottom in the points table and now they will play for their pride. Captain MS Dhoni has to lead from the front and the likes of Faf du Plessis, Ambati Rayudu too have to step up.
