CSK vs RR: Five-time IPL champion Chennai Super Kings and 2008 champion Rajasthan Royals will face off in a matchup between two teams already out of the running for the playoffs. The game will take place at Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday. This is CSK's second-to-last game of the season; thus they will be looking to end it on a high note with straight wins. CSK was unsuccessful this season, winning only three of their last 12 games and finishing the competition in the lower half of the standings. Ayush Mhatre and Dewald Brevis, two young players who have taken advantage of their limited opportunities, have still developed as promising. The Rajasthan Royals, meanwhile, are focused on winning their last game to cap off their IPL career. The Royals, led by captain Sanju Samson, are keen to make amends for their most recent loss to the Punjab Kings and to please their supporters with a solid showing. Rajasthan will want to repeat their victory over CSK in this match after winning their previous meeting.

Following the first two Twenty20 Internationals against Australia at his home stadium, Sabina Park in Jamaica, West Indies all-rounder Andre Russell will announce his retirement from international cricket. Russell, 37, presently has 84 caps and has only played in T20Is since 2019. He will retire seven months before the next T20 World Cup, which will take place in February 2026 in India and Sri Lanka. In addition, he played 56 ODIs and one Test. There are no words to describe what that meant. "One of the proudest achievements of my life has been representing the West Indies," Russell stated. I never imagined I would reach this level when I was younger, but the more you play and develop a passion for the sport, the more you realize what you are capable of. I wanted to make an impression in the maroon colors and serve as an inspiration to others, so this motivated me to improve. In addition to performing for the West Indies, I enjoy performing at home in front of my loved ones, which allows me to show off my skills and give better performances. I want to be a role model for the upcoming generation of Caribbean cricket players and end my international career on a strong note. Russell will leave international cricket in less than two months, making him the second well-known West Indies player to do so after Nicholas Pooran. It is believed that Russell's announcement caught the West Indies' selectors off guard. In 2012, Russell was a member of the West Indies team that won the T20 World Cup. In 2016, he took the new ball and got rid of Alex Hales in the second over in Kolkata. According to coach Daren Sammy, Andre has always been a hard competitor and the epitome of professionalism. His will to compete and win for the West Indies has never faltered. Whether I was captaining him or am currently coaching him. I hope he continues to inspire future generations and wish him luck on his next journey. Andre Russell Russell will be replaced by Matthew Forde in the roster f
