CHENNAI: Both Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) land into Monday’s conflict at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on the back of run-fests.

While CSK neglected to cross the completion line against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday night, RCB figured out how to exceed the Kolkata Knight Riders.

CSK may have hit an unpleasant time in the wake of anguish inverts in their last two trips in IPL-8, however they are back in natural domain. The MS Dhoni-drove side hasn’t lost a solitary diversion at home this season.

Both sides have a couple of similitudes. The two groups have a few perilous bat smen who have bravely won them recreations before.

While CSK’s Brendon McCullum and Dwayne Smith have been strong at the top, more will be normal from the accomplished center request embodying Suresh Raina, Faf du Plessis, Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo and MS Dhoni.

In the clash of the bats, Chris Gayle, Virat Kohli, Dinesh Karthik, AB de Villiers, Sarfaraz Khan and Mandeep Singh give RCB the capability to pursue or set enormous sums.

With regards to playing, both CSK and RCB have blown hot and frosty. The has’ trump card will be Ashish Nehra whose 14 scalps from 9 excursions have a go at an economy 6.72, one of the best in the competition.

In any case, he will need to have more backing from the flip side keeping in mind the end goal to smother the restriction. Excepting Bravo in the center overs, the others haven’t been dependent upon the mark.Premier spinner R Ashwin’s finger harm hasn’t helped their reason either.

“His wellness will be surveyed on Monday,” a group source said.

In the event that Nehra has had an effect for CSK, Aussie World Cup legend Mitchell Starc appears to have added an additional measurement to the RCB assault since his entry. Starc’s pace and exactness could make it troublesome for McCullum and Smith, who have been setting up the CSK charge many, many games.

Checking Gayle will be prime on Dhoni’s motivation.

Ashwin has been effective against the West Indian champion, yet in the event that the offie can’t play, Dhoni will need to redraw his systems.

For RCB, leggie Yuzvendra Chahal remains their driving wicket-taker with 11 releases, yet the economy rate of 8.07 doesn’t look excessively encouraging.

Fielding is likewise a region of quality for CSK with McCullum, Faf, Raina, Bravo and Jadeja convering half risks all the time. RCB, as well, have Kohli and AB in their positions and it signifies the possibility of a wafer on Monday night.
