The first match of the double header will be played tomorrow between Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore. After two weeks, few people outside of their most ardent supporters would have predicted that Chennai Super Kings and Royal Challengers Bangalore would be at the top of the IPL table. Certainly not after the previous season.
Selected recently Glenn Maxwell and Moeen Ali have both performed admirably. Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devdutt Padikkal have rediscovered their IPL 2020 form.
CSK has won four games in a row after losing their first match.
The RCB are still unbeaten, and are one win away from being the first team to start the season 5-0 since the Rajasthan Royals in 2015.
