Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals meet for the next IPL 2021 match in Mumbai on April 19. Both teams have played two matches so far with one win and one loss. Chennai Super Kings have a slight advantage considering the Net Run Rate. This match will be important for both of the teams to claim an important win.
Moeen Ali
One of the purchases ahead of IPL 2021 auction looked interesting. They got Moeen Ali who has the ability to play big shots and come handy as an off spinner. In the tournament opener, Ali walked in to bat at the number three slot against Delhi Capitals. However, after starting strongly he could not carry on with the momentum for long and was dismissed for 36 off 24 balls. In the second match against Punjab Kings, he was the highest run scorer with 31-ball 46 with seven fours and one maximum. Moeen Ali adds a lot of flexibility to the CSK batting line up and helps them to maintain the balance. He is also a handy off spinner who can bowl alongside Ravindra Jadeja to control the middle overs.

Chris Morris
Rajasthan Royals spent a huge amount of Rs 16.25 Crore on Chris Morris in the IPL auction hoping that he can be the game changer they are looking for. The importance of his role has enhanced further due to the absence of Ben Stokes and Jofra Archer. Morris showed his bowling skill in the first match with a couple of death over wickets. But in the second match he really showed his worth by finishing a chase which suddenly looked very difficult for them. They required 27 runs in last two overs and Morris took the responsibility to score all of it. The Royals management will be pleased for their handy investment on a player who can turn any match with both bat and the ball.
