The 28th  match between Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Chennai Super Kings Live Streaming will be played on 31st March 2010 at Chepauk Ground, Chennai.

Pitch: Like all the pitches of Indian Subcontinent, this one too will be true to its nature. Placid and flat. Team batting first will enjoy batting while team chasing will have hard chance. With Bangalore winning all matches while chasing, it doesn’t look difficult for them though!

Statistics:

Chennai Super Kings: Do or Die situation for CSK. They have to win this match if they have to stay in the tournament. While the batting has been tremendous for CSK, their weakest link is their bowling. As have been already accepted by the Captain, Dhoni, the bowlers are lacking in confidence. The match against Mumbai Indians was a classic example of the same when they lost the match bowling full tosses to Sachin and leaking runs invariably.

Suresh Raina, Matthew Hayden, Badrinath, Dhoni, all have been in good touch. Aggression is what they have to follow and aggression is what they have to show to win this match. About time when they need to get someone else may be a bowler in place of Parthiv Patel?

Royal Challengers Bangalore: One of the most formidable teams of this season, Royal Challengers Bangalore have been almost the best side this year. Seems they are carrying their last year’s form and with Kallis and Pandey providing them with blasting platforms in all matches, becomes easier for the middle order to take them through.

While batting is tremendous, bowling also has come good this time around. Praveen Kumar with the first hat trick of IPL in the kitty, Vinay Kumar with the National berth in his pocket would be oozing with confidence. They just need to maintain the momentum.

Last 5 matches win/lose streak:
CSK: L,L,L,W,L
RCB:L,W,W,W,W

Players to watch out for:

Manish Pandey: He has been one of the prolific run scorers of the series for RCB, still does not have enough runs as Sachin or Kallis. Needs a big one now and with the kind of talent he has, you won’t be disappointed.

Anil Kumble: One of the Cricket’s Greats, has been instrumental in turning the fortunes of Royal Challengers. Seems to be ageing but o boy! How! He would want to take Royal Challengers to the semifinals in this match only.

Albie Morkel: He has been one of South Africa’s finest allrounders not been able to prove his worth for CSK though. Have got the starts both in bowling and batting but have not been fortunate enough. Will be looking forward to contribute to winning cause either by batting or bowling.

Matthew Hayden: Has not been able to do much in this edition except 1 match where he hit 93, however you can never count him out, the Big man. A big one is due from him anytime now and Dhoni would be hoping this match to be the one.

Battles to watch out for:
Hayden vs Kumble
Kallis vs Morkel
Dhoni vs Praveen
Raina vs Steyn
