RCB aim to snap 17-year Chepauk curse against spin-heavy Chennai
The Statesman Siliguri
|March 28, 2025
Royal Challengers Bengaluru face tough task at home ground of five-time IPL champions
Seventeen years is a long time. During the period, Chennai Super Kings went on to win the Indian Premier League (IPL) title on five occasions, despite being out of action due to a ban for two years, and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) are still chasing the elusive trophy. The only common thread for the two franchises over all these years, is two stalwarts—Mahendra Singh Dhoni and Virat Kohli—the guiding forces on either side.
Amid all these, RCB will be banking on a positive start to their campaign in IPL 2025, and gear up to rewrite history when they take on a crafty CSK spin unit in a high-stakes face-off at Chepauk on Friday. It's been 17 years since RCB last triumphed at this venue, a solitary win that came in the inaugural IPL season back in 2008. However, breaching the Super Kings' fortress is no easy task. Built to dominate home conditions, CSK have once again assembled a potent spin trio tailor-made for the slow and gripping Chepauk surface.
