CSK vs RR Dream11 Prediction: Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals are set to lock horns in what will effectively be a dead rubber, with both sides languishing in the lower half of the IPL 2025 points table. With playoff hopes out of reach, the two former champions will be keen to sign off their campaign with a morale-boosting win.

Rajasthan Royals have endured a turbulent season marred by inconsistency and poor squad balance. Their struggles have ranged from misfiring chases to an ineffective bowling unit that has failed to deliver under pressure. Hopes of addressing these issues during the tournament faded quickly, with a lacklustre auction leaving them short of reinforcements, especially in the middle order and pace department.

CSK vs RR Team Update and Injury News

Chennai Super Kings continue to be without England duo Sam Curran and Jamie Overton, who haven't returned to India following the mid-season IPL suspension. Rajasthan Royals, meanwhile, have reported no new injuries or squad changes following their previous outing against Punjab Kings.

Key Battles to Watch

Sanju Samson will face a stern test against Chennai's experienced spin duo of Ravichandran Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja - a pairing that has often troubled him in the past. Despite the smaller boundaries, Samson's tendency to slow down against spin remains a concern for RR.

Interestingly, Jadeja himself hasn't had the best numbers against spin since 2020, striking at just 102.9. Although Rajasthan's spinners haven't had much impact this season, Riyan Parag's part-time off-spin could be tactically deployed to exploit Jadeja's weakness.
