The Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are set to clash in the 11th match of IPL 2025 at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, on Sunday, March 30. The match will begin at 7:30 PM IST and promises to be an exciting encounter between two teams looking to bounce back after recent defeats.
RR, led by Riyan Parag, have had a tough start to the season, losing their first two matches. They suffered a heavy defeat against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their opener, conceding 286 runs, and followed it up with a loss to Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), where their batting lineup collapsed, managing only 131 runs. Currently at the bottom of the points table, RR will be desperate to secure their first win of the season. Key players like Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson, and Jofra Archer will need to step up to turn their fortunes around.
CSK, on the other hand, started their campaign with a convincing win over Mumbai Indians (MI) but faced a setback against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), losing by 50 runs at their home ground, Chepauk. This defeat exposed vulnerabilities in their batting lineup, especially when chasing big totals. Led by Ruturaj Gaikwad, CSK will look to leverage their experienced players like MS Dhoni, Ravindra Jadeja, and Sam Curran to regain momentum.

The Barsapara Stadium is known for its batting-friendly pitch, with scores often exceeding 190 runs. However, spinners could play a crucial role, as the pitch tends to offer grip and turn. Both teams will need to capitalize on the power play overs to set the tone for the match.
