I simply don’t get it #IPL2025 — Dodda Ganesh | ದೊಡ್ಡ ಗಣೇಶ್ (@doddaganesha) March 28, 2025 Both Rayudu and Badrinath have received a lot of trolling by RCB fans on social media for their comments. However, it has helped in increasing the hype of the highly anticipated clash between CSK and RCB at Chepauk. Comments made by Ambati Rayudu and S Badrinath Ambati Rayudu and S Badrinath made a mockery of RCB during a conversation on the latter’s YouTube channel. Rayudu claimed that he would love RCB to win the IPL someday but not this year. He further mentioned that teams like RCB are needed in the IPL. “I mean purely as a fan and purely as someone who had really good laughter looking at them over the years because of what they do to themselves(both of them laugh),” Rayudu said on Badrinath’s YouTube channel. “I would want them to win sometime, but not this year, maybe because we want CSK also to really do well and win it. Yeah, in the end, it is like, okay, RCB, we need someone like that in the IPL” he added. Both Rayudu and Badrinath have also represented India alongside representing CSK. Both of them were quality batters and were excellent players of spin bowling and played key roles in CSK’s title wins. A huge task for RCB Chennai Super Kings will face Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the eighth match of IPL 2025. The match will be played at CSK’s home ground M.A. Chidambaram Stadium where RCB haven’t won a game since 2008. It will be a huge task for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru to trump one of the most successful IPL teams. However, they will be confident after winning their opening game of the season. Both CSK and RCB are coming into this game on the back of fantastic wins. While RCB defeated KKR in a one-sided encounter, CSK triumphed over the arch-rivals Mumbai Indians to start their campaign on a high.
