THE LOWDOWN

RAJASTHAN ROYALS

  • Rajasthan Royals can still finish in second spot in the Indian Premier League thanks to beating Lucknow Super Giants but need to win this final game against Chennai Super Kings to overhaul LSG.
  • Despite Jos Buttlr falling for just two runs, the rest of the top four did a good job with the bat before a superb spell of bowling from Trent Boult, in which the New Zealander finished with figures of 2-18 from his four overs, helped RR to a 24-run success.

CHENNAI SUPER KINGS

  • Chennai Super Kings will finish their campaign and relinquish their IPL title as they take on Rajasthan Royals to bring an extremely disappointing tournament to an end having won just four of their 13 games to date.
  • CSK went down to Gujarat Titans in their most recent outing which was their second loss in succession and their third in four despite the best efforts of Ruturaj Gaikwad who notched 53, although their scoring was not quick enough which has been the case for a lot of this tournament.

THE PREDICTION

Chennai Super Kings’ defence of their IPL title has been nothing short of shambolic and they will depart at the conclusion of this contest. They will be eager to finish on a high but they can finish no higher than ninth in the standings having won just four of their games to date. On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals have been excellent with eight wins from their 13 matches and will compete for the title in the next stage of the tournament. They will also be keen to finish strongly and while CSK will have a point to prove, the respective form of the two points to a win for the Royals.
