'Moeen bhai haath milalo' - Fans react as Moeen Ali talks about RCB crowd ahead of their contest at M Chinnaswamy Stadium

The 24th match of the Indian Premier League will be played between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) on April 17. It is going to be an interesting clash as the home team, RCB is one the best bowling side in the PowerPlays this season so far. Mohammed Siraj in particular conceded at just 4.7 RPO and took three wickets across 10 PowerPlay overs while CSK has been the worst.

Meanwhile, the Super Kings star allrounder, Moeen Ali talked about the iconic Chinnaswamy stadium and his time in Bengaluru in a pregame interview. He also added that the match is more of a local derby and that he is looking forward to playing in front of a fantastic crowd.

"When I played for RCB here against CSK, I remember there being more yellow shirts actually for the first time. The crowd is amazing here. It's an amazing stadium. Really good fans. It's more of a local derby, which is always a big game and a game that we always look forward to," Moeen Ali said in a video published by the Chennai Super Kings, ahead of the game.

If we do that well, we will most of the games: Moeen Ali

The four-time winners have played four matches this season so far and suffered two losses. In the last match they played was against Rajasthan Royals in which RR's fast bowler Sandeep Sharma defended seven runs off three balls against the mighty duo of Ravindra Jadeja and skipper MS Dhoni and avoided them pulling off a heist. Ali talked about the same and said that it's not about the result every time.

"The one thing with CSK is that it is not always about the result, it's about the process, and that takes care of the result. You are not going to always win. One thing we know is that for MS the process is really important. If we do that well, we will most of the games. That's how you really come back from losing," Moeen Ali explained.
