Indian T20 League 2024
Match 61: CHE vs RAJ
Preview
The upcoming match between Chennai (CHE) and Rajasthan (RAJ) on Sunday is set to be a challenging one for the former, as they seek to gather momentum for a crucial push towards the playoffs in the Indian T20 League 2024.
Taking place at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, this will be the first encounter between the two teams this season. RAJ currently hold the second spot in the league table, narrowly trailing behind Kolkata (KOL) in terms of net run rate. With eight wins and three losses in their 11 games, the team led by Sanju Samson has yet to secure their place in the final four.
A victory against CHE on Sunday would not only enhance their chances of reaching the playoffs but also enable them to finish among the top two teams. On the other hand, CHE has had a mixed performance this season, with six wins and six losses. Consistency has been a challenge for them, and their fans are hoping for a strong finish in the league stage.
A loss against RAJ would significantly harm CHE's prospects and leave them dependent on other teams' outcomes if they are to advance to the knockout stage.

Pitch and Weather Report
This season, the Chepauk surface has been predominantly flat, offering little assistance to bowlers. However, with this being a day game, the conditions might favour the spinners, and we could witness a pitch that plays more like the typical Chepauk wicket, known for its spin-friendly nature.
The temperature is going to hover around 36 degrees Celsius. The humidity is going to be quite noticeable, around 69%, so you might want to keep a cool drink handy to beat the heat. As for rain, there's a slight chance, about 6%, that we might see a few drops
