Rajasthan Royals (RR) will take on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, on Sunday, March 30, at 7:30 PM IST in IPL 2025 match 11.
Both teams are coming off losses, but while CSK won their opening game, RR are still searching for their first victory. Neither side has found rhythm in their batting, with CSK’s performance against Mumbai Indians also lacking conviction despite the win. Additionally, unsettled batting orders have made consistency a challenge for both teams.
As RR and CSK look to bounce back, the match could be a crucial turning point. While predicting the winner remains difficult, analyzing the pitch conditions can provide insights into which team might have the edge on Sunday.
