Chennai Weather Report: A cracking game awaits us on March 22 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium. The defending champions, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK), will take on the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), hoping to kick things off in style. Apart from the pressure of playing in the IPL 2024 season opener, the players will also have to battle the tough conditions in Chennai.

As usual, the humidity will play a factor at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, but players will have the relief of slightly cooler playing conditions.
