RR vs CSK, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 68
The Rajasthan Royals (RR) will take on the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 68 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Friday. Even with a loss, RR are likely to finish in the top four and qualify for the playoffs. But a victory against Chennai would see them clinch second spot in the IPL 2022 points table, giving them two shots at the final.
RR have had their ups and downs in recent games. In fact, they have lost three of their last five matches. The franchise, though, can view it as a blessing in disguise as the defeats have come ahead of the playoffs. It has given them a chance to identify their weak areas as well as guard against complacency.
On paper, the task for CSK is rather straightforward - try and win against Rajasthan and finish a disappointing season with something to cheer about. It won’t be an easy task, though, considering all that has been going on in the franchise.
Today's IPL toss result
The Chennai Super Kings have won the toss and have opted to bat first. Explaining the decision, captain MS Dhoni said:
“You want to give batters enough time, given our combination. Just want them to express themselves.
Asked whether he'll play next year, he confirmed:
“Definitely, because it will be unfair to not to say thank you to Chennai. Won't be nice to do that to CSK fans.”
