IPL 2026 RR vs CSK Live Streaming: When and where to watch Rajasthan Royals vs Chennai Super Kings match live

Five-time champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK) are set to face inaugural title winners Rajasthan Royals (RR) in their opening clash, which is also the third match of the Indian Premier League 2026.

Both teams endured disappointing campaigns last season, finishing at the bottom of the standings with eight points each. CSK ended last due to an inferior net run rate, while RR finished ninth.

Ahead of the new season, RR have brought back their star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, while Sanju Samson made a high-profile move to CSK in one of the biggest two-way trades in IPL history. RR also strengthened their squad by adding Ravi Bishnoi.


Ruturaj Gaikwad will lead CSK this season, while Riyan Parag has taken over the captaincy duties for RR following Samson’s departure.

The RR vs CSK, IPL 2026 Match 3 will be played at Barsapara Stadium on Monday, March 30, with the match scheduled to begin at 7:30 PM IST.
