CSK vs RCB Dream11 Prediction IPL: Defending champions Chennai Super Kings will face Royal Challengers Bangalore to kick off the 2024 season of the Indian Premier League.
IPL 2024 Match 1 CSK vs RCB Dream11: Preview
After winning their fifth IPL title, Chennai Super Kings will kick off the 2024 season of the Indian Premier League when they take on Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 1st match of the tournament on March 22.
Despite winning the whole thing in 2023, CSK have made some impressive additions to their side, mostly on the all-rounder front. A complete team on paper under the captaincy of the legend himself, MS Dhoni, the Super Kings will look to push for their sixth IPL title, making them the most successful team in league history.
While RCB were not the worst side in IPL 2023, their side looks much worse this year. With a gaping hole in their bowling department, this is definitely a batting-heavy team. But what a batting order they have. While not the on-paper favorites to do so, a large number of fans will be hoping to see RB and Virat Kohli lift their first IPL title.

IPL 2024 CSK vs RCB Pitch Report
The pitches of MA Chidambaram Stadium have always been bowler-friendly. To be more specific, they are a haven for spinners. One of the few pitches in India where bowlers dominate the batters and not vice versa.
While the pitch does deteriorate during the course of a match, it does not happen much in the span of a T20 match, that too under lights. Despite that, batting first here after winning the toss is the correct decision, with sides batting first winning over 60% of IPL matches here. Surprisingly, there is also not much dew formation here.

CSK vs RCB Dream11 Prediction IPL: Who Will Win The Match
As the tournament is yet to start, we can only go on how the team stack up on paper, and Chennai Super Kings are the clear favorites here. Not only several of their players are in top form, but the likes of Rachin Ravindra and Daryl Mitchell showed how well they can play in Indian conditions in the 2023 ODI World Cup.
On the other hand, RCB looks like an incomplete side and are likely not to defeat well-built teams like CSK
CSK vs RCB Dream11 Match Prediction: Chennai Super Kings will defeat Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 1st Match of IPL 2024 2024.
