RCB vs CSK, IPL 2023, Live Updates: Cricket legends MS Dhoni and Virat Kohli will be up against each other in IPL 2023 as Royal Challengers Bangalore face Chennai Super Kings at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru on Monday. Faf du Plessis-led RCB will be high on confidence after outplaying Delhi Capitals across all departments in their previous game.
England's seasoned all-rounder Moeen Ali feels Mahendra Singh Dhoni "could definitely" feature in the IPL next year, playing down the widespread supposition that the ongoing season will be the Chennai Super Kings captain's last appearance in the T20 league. At 41, the World Cup-winning former India skipper continues to attract massive following across the length and breadth of the country, and last week came close to lifting CSK to a win over Rajasthan Royals, with batting that reminded everyone of his best years.
Chennai Super Kings faced a close three-run defeat against Rajasthan Royals in their previous match. In the chase of 176, CSK needed 21 of the last over, when pacer Sandeep Sharma defended it, despite having the veteran finisher MS Dhoni on the strike. The four-time champions will now be squaring off against Royal Challengers Bangalore in their upcoming clash on Monday. CSK, who are already dealing with Deepak Chahar's absence due to an injury, have faced another as their pacer Sisanda Magala also sustained an injury in the previous match.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) eye top spot when they take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) in an Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. After losing their opening match to Gujarat Titans, CSK have been victorious in their last two outings, and hope to make it three on the trot with a win in front of their fans against RR. With star pacer Deepak Chahar and Ben Stokes out due to injuries, CSK will heavily rely on their spinners. Ravindra Jadeja was CSK standout performer with the ball in their last match as he turned the game on its head. Ahead of the game against RR, here's what we think could be CSK's playing XI:
England all-rounder Moeen Ali believes compatriot Ben Stokes to be an obvious candidate for Chennai Super Kings (CSK) captaincy in the Indian Premier League (IPL) once the current skipper MS Dhoni decides to call it quits. CSK splurged big money on Stokes in the IPL 2023 auction last year in December, but his performance has been underwhelming in two games so far, having scored 15 runs in two games and having bowled only one over. England's Test team has transformed under Stokes' leadership within nearly a year, winning 10 out of 12 matches under him. Moeen opines that Stokes' success with England makes him an easy choice to succeed Dhoni as a skipper, but feels that the change might not be imminent.
Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma looked visibly shattered after his team suffered a defeat against Chennai Super Kings in an IPL 2023 match at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday. It was MI's second successive defeat of the season, having lost their first game of the season against the Royal Challengers Bangalore. Chasing a target of 157, CSK achieved their goal with seven wickets and 11 balls to spare. As Ambati Rayudu, who was brought in as an impact player, hit the winning boundary, Rohit was caught by the cameras hiding his face with his cap.
Veteran Chennai Super Kings (CSK) batter Ajinkya Rahan took fans' breath away with his whirlwind knock against Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 match on Saturday. Scoring a 19-ball half-century, Rahane reached the 50-run mark in the fastest time this season yet. However, Rahane wasn't originally in the franchise's plans to feature in the match. He only got to know about his place in the team ahead of the toss as Moeen Ali was unwell.
All-rounder Moeen Ali (4-0-26-4) did the star turn as Chennai Super Kings kept Lucknow Super Giants at bay in a high-scoring match of the 2023 IPL at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Monday night. Chasing a target of 218, LSG fell short by a mere 12 runs as they finished proceedings on 205/7. Ali was well supported by Mitchell Santner who took 1/21 in 4 overs. CSK skipper MS Dhoni crossed the 5,000-run mark in the IPL with two magnificently struck sixes. Earlier, the hosts had put up 217/7 thanks mainly to the exploits of opener Ruturaj Gaikwad, who smashed 57 (31b, 3x4, 4x6), his second half-century in two games. Spinner Ravi Bishnoi emerged the best bowler for LSG returning with figures of 3/28.
