When: Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Chennai Super Kings, Match 44, October 25, 14:00 Local, 15:30 IST
Where: Dubai International Stadium
What to expect: There has been an inversion to the bat-first doctrine so prevalent in the first half of the tournament despite the pitches getting tired. The last four games in Dubai have seen chasing teams succeed. David Warner revealed that dew was setting in the second innings allowing the ball to skid on better. Despite this being an afternoon fixture, teams wouldn't mind fielding first given the slight dip in temperatures in late October. There is forecast for a comforting breeze that'll blow across the ground in the afternoon.
Squads:
Royal Challengers Bangalore Squad: Devdutt Padikkal, Aaron Finch, Virat Kohli(c), AB de Villiers(w), Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Chris Morris, Washington Sundar, Isuru Udana, Navdeep Saini, Mohammed Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal, Shahbaz Ahmed, Moeen Ali, Pawan Negi, Umesh Yadav, Josh Philippe, Pavan Deshpande, Adam Zampa, Parthiv Patel, Dale Steyn, Shivam Dube
Chennai Super Kings Squad: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Faf du Plessis, Ambati Rayudu, N Jagadeesan, MS Dhoni(w/c), Ravindra Jadeja, Sam Curran, Deepak Chahar, Shardul Thakur, Imran Tahir, Josh Hazlewood, Shane Watson, Kedar Jadhav, Piyush Chawla, Murali Vijay, Karn Sharma, Lungi Ngidi, Monu Kumar, Mitchell Santner, Ravisrinivasan Sai Kishore, KM Asif
