With 67 league matches already underway, Mumbai, Gujarat, Delhi, Punjab, and lucknow have officially missed out on the playoffs. Kolkata, Rajasthan, and hyderabad have advanced to the playoffs. Teams from chennai and Bangalore will battle it out today for the remaining one spot. The winning team will advance to the play-offs. It has become a knock-out tournament as the losing team will be eliminated from the series. Due to this, the match has created great expectations among the fans.

The match starts at 7.30 pm at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Chennai team is fourth in the points table with 7 wins from 13 matchesso far. Thus, a win in today's match will qualify for the play-off round. At the other end, despite stumbling in the early stages with back-to-back defeats, Bangalore has won their last 5 matches and is currently looking to make it to the playoffs. It is worth noting that Bangalore can go to the playoffs only if they win today's match with certain limits. Currently, theBangalore team is seventh in the points table with 6 wins from 13 matches.Fans can watch the match live on TV on the Star sports channel and jio Cinema app in OTT.

Playing at the local ground is seen as the number one strength for the Bangalore team. In both batting and bowling, it has been showing tremendous performance. Kohli, Rajat Patidar, Lomror, and dinesh karthik are doing well with the bat. At the other end, Mohammed Siraj, Karn Sharma, and yash Dayal are doing the bowling. Gaikwad, Dubey, Jadeja, and Mitchell are giving confidence in batting in the chennai team. Chantner, Deshpande, and Simarjeet Singh are in good form in bowling. But, either everyone seems to be performing well oreveryone is faltering at the same time, so the chennai team has not been able to keep up the winning streak. So the Chennai team must show their collective effort in today's match.

The two teams have data-faced each other 32 times in the history of IPL. Out of which Chennai team has won 21 times and Bangalore team has won 10 times. A match was inconclusive. In a match against the chennai team, theBangalore team recorded a maximum of 218 runs and a minimum of 70 runs. At the same time, in a match against the Bangalore team, the chennai team recorded a maximum of 226 runs and a minimum of 82 runs. There is no doubt that the Chinnaswamy ground is a paradise for batsmen.
