CSK vs RCB Dream11: Chennai Super Kings takes on Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 22nd match of the IPL 2022. CSK have had a poor start to the season losing all their 4 matches so far and finding themselves bottom of the table. On the other hand, RCB has won 3 out of the 4 matches and looks like a dangerous team on paper. Although CSK holds the head-to-head record recent form tilts it towards RCB. This is a southern derby and it promises to be a thrilling one.

Royal Challengers Bangalore have won a couple of close matches and will be missing the services of Harshal Patel at the death. Hence this match is a lot closer than what the points table suggest. Going by the recent form RCB have an edge but this will be a very closely fought match and we can expect CSK to fight it out and win the match.
