CSK vs RR, Fantasy Picks For IPL 2025 Match 62
Chennai Super Kings will be up against Rajasthan Royals in the IPL 2025 match 62 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday, May 20.
The contest between laggards CSK vs RR holds no significance in the context of the play-offs, but both teams will aim to accelerate their rebuilding process, with the MS Dhoni-led side looking to transform itself into a young brigade.
The match will be the last fixture of the 2025 edition for the Royals, who have nothing to savour except finding exceptional talent in Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who forced the cricket world to take note of his unexpected coruscating show.
The bad bowling picks at the auction have hurt the Jaipur-based side the most, apart from a non-impressive show by the middle order. If they are at number nine in the table out of 10 teams, it has mostly been because of a mediocre show by their bowlers and over-dependence on top-order batters.
For CSK, the rebuilding process has started with the infusion of young blood like Ayush Mhatre, Shaik Rasheed, and Urvil Patel. The 20-year-old Mhatre came close to hitting a century against RCB and also did well against SRH and MI. Patel is a late entry, but he showed his potential with his cameo against KKR. What they have done so far is a trailer for the next edition.
Losing skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad added to the woes of the side. Many hoped that with Dhoni coming back as skipper would change the fortunes of the side, but even he could do little with such limited resources.
Much was expected from foreign recruits like Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra, but nothing worked for the CSK.
