Chennai Super Kings, under skipper MS Dhoni, are gearing up for a challenging encounter in their fourth match of the Indian Premier League 2024 season. The Yellow-outfit will take on last season’s runners-up, Rajasthan Royals, at Chennai’s MA Chidambaram Stadium. Read more to find out CHE vs RR Dream11 Prediction, Player Stats, Captain & Vice-Captain, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Pitch Report, Playing XI, Injury and weather updates.
The Rajasthan side has India’s highest-quality offspinner and leg spinner, and playing the combination on a turning pitch is going to be a challenge for any team. They also have the option of drafting Adam Zampa or using Murugan Ashwin as an impact sub if necessary.
For the Royals batters, the change in approach is going to be quite massive because they played their last two games in batting-friendly conditions in Guwahati.
MS Dhoni-led squad defeated their arch-rivals Mumbai Indians by seven wickets. A competition in which their spin combination of Mitchell Santner and Ravindra Jadeja played a significant role. After arriving in time from New Zealand, Maheesh Theekshana is expected to complete the trio on Wednesday (April 12).
It can be a fascinating battle of the spin-heavy teams.

The MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai has a sporting surface that benefits bowlers, particularly spinners. As a result, both teams’ spinners will try to make the most of the surface and maybe obtain crucial breaks. Any score between 150 and 170 might be judged competitive.

CHE vs RR: Dream 11 Top Picks
Ruturaj Gaikwad (CHE)
In the three games so far, CSK starter Ruturaj Gaikwad has maintained his golden run in the campaign. Moreover, he is one of the leading run scorers and will seek to put his best foot forward this season to obtain the IPL 2024 Orange Cap. He has 189 runs and two half-centuries in three appearances and will seek to continue his good form. However, his record against Trent Boult fails to encourage confidence, as he has been bowled three times in 21 deliveries by the New Zealand seamer.
Jos Buttler (RR)
So far, the wicketkeeper-batter has two half-centuries in three appearances. He leads RR in run scoring with 152 in three games with an average of 50.66 and a strike rate of 180.95.
Moeen Ali (CHE)
He won the Player of the Match award in the last game, picking four wickets for 26 runs in four overs. This was the first time Moeen picked a four-wicket haul in IPL. He missed the last game but will likely be back for this one.
