Stephen Fleming, the head coach of CSK, is concentrating on the upcoming game rather than the past. He thinks it will be crucial to retain RCB captain Rajat Patidar and Virat Kohli.
On Friday, March 28, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) will play at the Chepauk. Since 2008, CSK has defeated RCB at Chepauk, winning each match since then.
After only one game, it’s quite difficult to comment. Last year’s RCB and CSK are very different. We don’t consider previous results,” Fleming declared prior to the match.
Without a doubt, Kohli plays a significant role in their team. However, like other franchises, they have a strong team. This year’s competition is rather even.
We will succeed if we keep Patidar and him [Kohli] quiet.
In the opening match of the IPL 2025, both RCB and CSK had strong starts. While RCB began their campaign with a commanding seven-wicket victory against the reigning champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), CSK defeated the Mumbai Indians (MI) by four wickets.
