Top Picks for CSK vs RCB Dream11 Match:
Top Picks – Batsmen
Virat Kohli was getting starts in this year’s IPL, but the game against Rajasthan Royals was the occasion where he capitalized on a good start to play a long knock of unbeaten 72 runs.
The story is exactly the same for Faf du Plessis. He had scored 30+ runs on two occasions prior to the last match, but scored a match-winning 95 against Kolkata Knight Riders.
Top Picks – All-Rounders
Glenn Maxwell had a peaceful day last time out against Rajasthan as the team got the job done without requiring his services. But the Aussie has already scored two half-centuries in this season.
Top Picks – Bowlers
Deepak Chahar picked up his second four-fer of the season in the last game against Kolkata Knight Riders. His first was against Punjab Kings, where he conceded only 13 runs.
Royal Challengers Bangalore have a plethora of gun pacers, but surprisingly, Harshal Patel has emerged as their strike bowling option. He picked up 3 wickets in the last game and has scalped at least 2 wickets in all of the matches he has played in IPL 2021.
Top Picks – Wicketkeepers
Like Glenn Maxwell, Bangalore did not require AB de Villiers’ services in the last game, but in the match before that, he scored a splendid 76.

AB de Villiers, Virat Kohli (c), Devdutt Padikkal, Suresh Raina, Ambati Rayudu, Glenn Maxwell (vc), Sam Curran, Washington Sundar, Navdeep Saini, Harshal Patel, Shardul Thakur
CSK vs RCB Risky Captaincy Picks:
Devdutt Padikkal’s knock against Rajasthan Royals was a thing of beauty. He scored 101 runs from 52 deliveries, which made a competitive target of 178 look like a cakewalk.
Another youngster who performed well in the last game is Ruturaj Gaikwad. He justified his selection in the CSK team by scoring 64 runs from only 42 deliveries.
Player you should avoid:
Yuzvendra Chahal is having a very tough time in this season’s IPL. He has picked up 2 wickets in 4 matches and went wicketless in the last game. Hence, you can give him a miss for this match.
