IPL 2021 CSK vs RR Live: Welcome to our live coverage of Match 47 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 where Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will take on Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. 

Three-time champions Chennai would look to continue their winning momentum as they take on a struggling Rajasthan unit. Chennai on Thursday became the first team to seal a playoff berth with a six-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad. While Chennai are currently leading the points table with 18 points from 11 matches, Rajasthan are languishing seventh with just four wins so far. The Sanju Samson-led side needs to win their remaining three games to stay in contention for the play-off spot. A defeat against Chennai, however, would end their slim chances of achieving a top-four finish.
