The surface provided more assistance for the seamers than the spinners in the contest between Super Kings and Royal Challengers. Taking the pace off the bowl will always bring the best rewards for the bowlers. Having said that, if the batters play long they can easily score beyond 180. It’s still a batting first wicket.

Pre-Match Analysis:
Defending champions, Chennai Super Kings dominantly started their campaign with a clinical 6 wickets win over Royal Challengers Bengaluru on Friday. They weren’t disappointed losing the toss, as their bowlers exerted pressure on the opposition batters, picking up 3 wickets inside the powerplay. Ruturaj Gaikwad who has the backing of legendary MS Dhoni was spot on in rotating his bowlers and used Mustafizur Rahman as a wicket-taking option and the Bangla pacer responded well with a brilliant 4-fer at an economy of 7.25. They conceded more than they expected in the death overs costing them close to 100 runs in the final 8 overs. Chasing the target of 174, their batters made equal contributions with all their top 6 scoring double digits with Rachin Ravindra as their stand-out performer who scored 37 from just 15 balls in his first IPL appearance. Super Kings needs to level up their game as they face Gujarat Titans who are a formidable side.At one point it seemed the game was moving out of
Gujarat Titans’ control against Mumbai Indians but their bowlers fought back and won the game with a spectacular death bowling. Shubman Gill who has been appointed as their captain for the first time used the well-oiled resources exceptionally as they stunned 5-time champions by a narrow 6 runs to open their account in the points table. By looking at the scorecard, it wasn’t a no-man show but it was an overall team effort that earned them a win where every member played their roles well. Shubman Gill and Sai Sudharsan starred in the first half, scoring 31 and 45 runs respectively while in the latter half, we saw a collective bowling show where Azmatullah Omarzai, Umesh Yadav, Spencer Johnson, and Mohit Sharma picked up 2 wickets apiece. Titans will be playing their only second game at Chepauk where they lost previously by 15 runs against Super Kings in the 2023 Qualifier 1.
