IPL 2020, CSK vs RCB Preview: MS Dhoni's Struggling 'Yellow Army' To Face Virat Kohli's Confident 'Red Brigade' At Dubai

CSK's openers Shane Watson and Fof Du Plessis are in great rhythm and have given their team a good start. Ambati Rayudu, who was out of 2 matches due to injury, is again contributing with the bat. Apart from these, no other player has been able to consistently play well, including Dhoni.

The second match on Saturday in the 13th season of the Indian Premier League will be played between Chennai Super Kings captained by Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Royal Challengers Bangalore skippered by Virat Kohli. In the current season, where Chennai has performed extremely poorly.

At the same time, Bangalore's condition looks slightly better than the previous tournament this season. Chennai have won just two out of 6 matches while Bangalore have managed to win three out of five matches so far.

Chennai Super Kings, which started with a win against Mumbai in the IPL 2020, is seen returning to the rhythm after 4 consecutive defeats. However, in the last match, Mahi's team lost against Kolkata even after getting very near to a victory.

CSK's openers Shane Watson and Fof Du Plessis are in great rhythm and have given their team a good start. Ambati Rayudu, who was out of 2 matches due to injury, is again contributing with the bat. Apart from these, no other player has been able to consistently play well, including Dhoni.

There have been some good innings with the bat of Dhoni and Jadeja present in the middle order, but it has not proved enough to help their team win the games. For Mahi, the playing XI combination still remains a big challenge.

On the other hand, Royal Challengers Bangalore are ready to face Chennai on the strength of their strong batting. Bangalore have some good batsmen like Aaron Finch, Devdutt Padikkal, captain Virat Kohli and AB de Villiers in their lineup, which can be a bit difficult for Dhoni's bowlers. The batting of the team has become even deeper with the arrival of Moien Ali in the lower order.
