Head to Head
RCB have the momentum, the home ground advantage and face a CSK side that looks increasingly fragile to make this a strong bet even at a short price.
CSK lead the all-time series 21-13 but the recent trend has shifted. RCB have won three of the last five including both clashes in 2025, and at the Chinnaswamy each team has won six of 12 meetings. The surface is the key factor, with 35 totals of 200-plus in IPL history and an average run rate of 9.73 since 2023, CSK’s fragile bowling attack has nowhere to hide.
RCB chased 202 inside 16 overs to open their season and have had a full week to prepare. CSK have conceded 336 runs across two games while taking only seven wickets. Without Dhoni and Brevis, their middle order and bowling both look thin.
Hard to go past the hosts.
Best Bet
Kohli scored 657 runs at an average of 54.75 in IPL 2025 and has over 1,000 runs against CSK in this rivalry. Against the competition’s worst powerplay bowling attack and at his home ground, the conditions are perfect for a big score from the Indian legend.
Value Bet
Samson has scores of 6 and 7 to start his CSK career but arrives on the back of successive 89 and 97 not out innings for India at the T20 World Cup. The Chinnaswamy is exactly the kind of pitch that unlocks his game and at a price he is worth backing to find his form.
