Match Overview

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) in Match 62 of the IPL 2025 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday, May 20. Notably, this is a dead rubber as both teams are out of the playoff race and holding the bottom two spots in the table.

For CSK, this is their penultimate game of the season, and they will be hoping to finish the season with consecutive wins. In 12 games, the five-time champions registered a mere three wins and mostly found themselves at the bottom half of the table for the majority of the season. However, the positives have been the signings of young and dynamic players like Ayush Mhatre and Dewald Brevis, who have made the most of the limited opportunities.

Meanwhile, RR are playing their last game of the edition and playing to salvage their pride. Coming off a loss to the Punjab Kings, the Sanju Samson-led team needs to pull up their socks one final time, especially for their fans. Notably, the Royals won the last time these two sides faced each other, and they hope to replicate the same performance.

Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report

The pitch at Delhi’s Arun Jaitley Stadium is expected to be on the slower side, helping spinners due to its dry surface and patches of grass. The average first-innings score here in the last 10 matches is 216, hinting at a decent batting track, although spinners could come into play as the pitch grips. Dew is likely to play a key role later in the evening, prompting the toss-winning captain to opt for bowling first.

In the last game between DC and GT, the bowlers went for runs at a higher rate, and batters got more chances to free their hands.

With Jofra Archer and Sandeep Sharma unavailable, right-arm pacer Tushar Deshpande is expected to play a big role with the ball in the coming game. The 30-year-old has picked up eight wickets in nine games and has bowled at an economy of 10.96. In the game against Punjab Kings, Deshpande bagged two wickets and will be in high spirits for the upcoming clash.
