What a way to kickstart the campaign! Ruturaj Gaikwad could not have asked for a better start to his reign as CSK captain as the defending champions scripted a six-wicket win over the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in front of a full house at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. Chasing 174 was never going to be too tough for the reigning champions and the only way RCB could have won this match was by taking wickets and never allowing CSK to scale the required Net Run Rate (NRR). Yet, that is exactly what RCB failed to do, as Faf du Plessis had to walk away with a loss in the season opener. For CSK, there are a lot of positives, while RCB will need to do some work, especially in the bowling department, to get their campaign on track.

The IPL 2024 is upon us, and what better way to kickstart the tournament than to have two of the most popular teams go up against each other in the opening match? Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are set to play out what promises to be a blockbuster of a clash at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on March 22. The reigning champions have had a change of leadership, and the rising star Ruturaj Gaikwad will shoulder the weight of leading the team after the legendary MS Dhoni passes the baton. He will be pitted against his former CSK opening partner Faf du Plessis, who will look to lead the charge for RCB and get them off to a good start in pursuing a maiden IPL title.

CSK became one of the most successful sides in IPL history after winning the title for a record-equalling fifth time in 2023. The win did not come easy, as they had to fend off a spirited show from Gujarat Titans, led by Hardik Pandya, in a rain-affected final. On the other hand, their opponents would hope that a change of name and logo would help them bring about a change in fortune as well. Du Plessis's side is one of the perennial underachievers in the history of the IPL, and they will look to take some inspiration from the WPL-winning women's team and go all the way this time.
