CSK vs RR IPL 2024 Prediction & Playing 11: Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals will lock horns in a crucial IPL 2024 match on Sunday (May 12) at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.
Both Rajasthan and Chennai find themselves in the playoff spots, but RR need a victory to cement their top-two status, while the CSK side knows a victory is imperative to keep their immediate rivals at bay.

Rajasthan Royals have lost two matches in a row after winning four consecutive encounters, and will be aiming to get the points. Chennai, on the other hand, suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of Gujarat Titans in their last match.
If CSK fail to win, their playoff hopes will be in jeopardy. Delhi Capitals and Lucknow Super Giants both have 12 points and a slip-up from Ruturaj Gaikwad's team will benefit the other two teams.
Chennai Super Kings will be aiming to field a strong team and may make a couple of changes. Sameer Rizvi can come in for Ajinkya Rahane, while Maheesh Theekshana may also return to the lineup to replace Mitchell Santner.
For Rajasthan Royals, the selection dilemma is not that complicated. They handed a debut to Donovan Ferreira in the last match but the South African may find himself on the wings again as Shimron Hetmyer is likely to return.
CSK Probable XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), Rachin Ravindra, Daryl Mitchell, Shivam Dube, Moeen Ali, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk), Shardul Thakur, Matheesha Pathirana, Tushar Deshpande, Simarjeet Singh
CSK Impact Player: Sameer Rizvi
RR Probable XI: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson (c & wk), Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Shubham Dubey, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Avesh Khan, Yuzvendra Chahal
RR Impact Player: Sandeep Sharma
We predict Rajasthan Royals (RR) to win the match and bolster their top two status in the IPL 2024 points table.
