RCB aim to breach CSK’s fortress Chepauk
CHENNAI [Maha Media]: Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s hopes of exorcising a 17-year jinx hinge on their experienced batting unit finding its range when they face familiar foes Chennai Super Kings in their IPL match here on Friday.
The Royal Challengers have beaten the Super Kings only onceat Chepauk — in the inaugural edition of the tournament in 2008. In the current RCB squad, only star batter Virat Kohli was part of that moment and now he will like to breach the CSK’s fortress for a second time.
But that’s easy to dream. As ever, the Chennai outfit is constructed to win their home atches on a pitch that offers considerable help to spinners.
They have the ever-familiar Ravindra Jadeja and have brought back ‘old boy’ Ravichandran Ashwin through last year’s players’ auction. The Chennai side has also added Afghanistan left-arm spinner Noor Ahmad too to the squad, and the troika did well against Mumbai Indians a few days back.
