Pitch Report
A relatively high-scoring game beckons with some help available for the bowlers. There should be some extra bounce and movement off the surface for the pacers early on. However, as the match progresses, they will look to take the pace off. The spinners will also come into play in the middle overs with wickets in hand being key. Both teams will look to chase, with dew playing a significant role in the backend of the match.
Today's RR vs CSK Dream11 Match Top Picks
Wicketkeeper
Sanju Samson: Sanju Samson is in the mix for the Orange Cap and has been Rajasthan Royals' best bet with the bat in the UAE so far. He has mixed caution with aggression in equal balance with a heap of runs to show for his efforts. One can bank on him to get a big one in this game ahead of MS Dhoni in your RR vs CSK Dream11 fantasy team.
Batsman
Faf du Plessis: Although Faf du Plessis has been in fine touch over the last few games, a big score has eluded him in the UAE leg. Comfortable against pace and spin, the South African is a decent bet to score some quick runs at the top of the order, making him one to watch out for in this game.
All-rounder
Moeen Ali: Although Moeen Ali hasn't bowled often in the UAE leg, his batting alone should earn him a spot in the RR vs CSK Dream11 fantasy team. Known for his blistering knocks in the middle overs, Ali is due for a big innings and could be backed to come good in today's game.
Bowler
Mustafizur Rahman: Mustafizur Rahman's variations have been effective on slightly slower tracks in the UAE. Rahman has also been spot on with his death-bowling plan, which should hold him in good stead ahead of the game.
