The 2-month-long Mahakumbh of cricket is going to start from Friday 22 March 2024. Like last year, this time also 10 teams will face face-to-face, and their only goal will be to win the title.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are going to face face-to-face in the first match of the IPL 2024 tournament at the M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Chennai Super Kings defeated Gujarat Titans in the final last season to lift the title for the 5th time.

MSD handled the captaincy to Ruturaj Gaikwad and he will play this season as a wicket-keeper batsman.
Talking about Royal Challengers Bangalore, the last season was not anything special for the team. The team won 7 out of 14 matches and lost 7. Recently, in the Women’s Premier League 2024, the Royal Challengers Bangalore women’s team has created history by winning the title. The Royal Challengers Bangalore Men’s team will also be seen showing full strength to win the trophy this season, showing a great game.

CSK vs RCB Pitch Report, MA. Chidambaram Stadium Chepauk
The pitch at M. A. Chidambaram Stadium Chepauk is considered slow and dull, due to which it presents a challenge for the batsmen. Due to which spinners and medium-fast bowlers get more help here, this season is going to be something similar. Unlike the rest of the IPL venues, the pitch at Chepauk is not a high-scoring ground. As the tournament progresses, the pitch in Chennai is expected to be even slower. Therefore, winning the toss and batting first is highly likely to be the preferred choice for teams. The average 1st innings score on this pitch is 158+ runs.
