March 30: Today's IPL 2026 match
Rajasthan Royals vs Chennai Super Kings - Barsapara Stadium, Guwahati, 7:30 pm local time
Team news
There has been buzz around the game, which will pit Ravindra Jadeja and Sanju Samson against their respective previous teams after the pre-IPL switch. Now without Sam Curran (who went to RR as part of the same trade), RR will probably have to include both Jadeja and Dasun Shanaka. There is no update on Donovan Ferreira’s availability yet.
CSK will miss MS Dhoni for the first two weeks, but their explosive batting unit is full of Indians, which will enable them to pick three overseas bowlers. Ayush Mhatre and Ramakrishna Ghosh may get the nods ahead of Urvil Patel and Anshul Kamboj.
The weather predictions do not look good: the match is likely to be hampered by rain.
Toss and playing XIIs
The toss will take place at 7:30pm local time (2pm GMT).
Playing XIs will be updated after the toss.
