The upcoming IPL 2026 match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) is set to take place on March 30 at the ACA Stadium in Barsapara, Guwahati. Both teams had a disappointing 2025 season, finishing near the bottom of the table.
In a significant trade deal, CSK acquired Sanju Samson from RR in exchange for Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran. With a younger squad and the absence of MS Dhoni for the first two weeks, CSK will look towards captain Ruturaj Gaikwad and Samson to lead the team to success.
On the other hand, RR, under new captain Riyan Parag, will aim to continue their winning streak against CSK from last season. The match is scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM IST, with the toss at 7:00 PM IST. Indian viewers can catch the action live on the Star Sports Network, while online streaming is available on the JioHotstar app and website.
The squads for both teams include key players like Jofra Archer, Ravindra Jadeja, and MS Dhoni for CSK, and Riyan Parag, Ravi Bishnoi, and Shimron Hetmyer for RR. Fans can look forward to an exciting clash between these two former champions.
