Probable 6s

Rajasthan Royals have big hitters such as Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shimron Hetmyer. Chennai Super Kings have the likes of Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Moeen Ali and Shivam Dube. RR have hit 25 sixes in three games whereas CSK have smashed 31 in as many games.

Our prediction: Chennai Super Kings to hit most sixes in the match at 19/20 (1.95).

Probable Wickets

Ravindra Jadeja is coming off an excellent spell of 3/20 versus Mumbai Indians. He’s likely to get some assistance at the Chepauk and you can back him to be CSK’s top wicket-taker at 4/1 (5.00). Yuzvendra Chahal has claimed eight wickets from three matches in IPL 2023 so far. Bet on Chahal to be the top bowler for Rajasthan Royals at 9/4 (3.25).

Our prediction: Ravindra Jadeja to be Chennai Super Kings’ highest wicket-taker at 4/1 (5.00).

Man of the Match

Sanju Samson started the season well, scoring 55 and 42 in the first two innings. He has been in the best phase of his batting career and you can bet on him to be the player of the match at 9/1 (10.00). Jos Buttler, Yuzvendra Chahal, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ravindra Jadeja are some of the other top betting options.

Our prediction: Sanju Samson to be the Man of the Match at 9/1 (10.00).
