4.The last time they met

The previous meeting of RR and CSK took place at the MCA Stadium, Pune. Chennai was asked to bat first and Shane Watson who notched up a century. Watson’s 106 took Chennai to the mammoth score of 204/5 in their first innings. RR had to do the record chase at that ground to win.

Rajasthan was never in the matches they lost the early wickets and the target was as far as the moon. Stokes and Buttler tried a little but RR eventually went down by 64 runs. Chahar, Thakur, Bravo and Sharma all took a brace of wickets.
