Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​ Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 07,Wednesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 20:30 PM IST​​𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Eden Gardens, Kolkata, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 KKR look to keep their playoff hopes alive Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. KKR vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis Kolkata Knight Riders secured a narrow 1-run win over Rajasthan Royals in their last outing at home. There are a lot of lessons to learn from that match for the home team in terms of their bowling performance. Chennai Super Kings are struggling to even come closer to a win. This presents a great opportunity for KKR to add 2 more points to their tally and move ahead in the points table. MS Dhoni would be happy with his team’s recent performance against RCB. It was a much stronger batting performance and CSK came very close to a win. The way MSD and Jadeja were going about things in the 19th Over it looked like CSK will end up on the winning side. However, when it comes to the bowling department, both teams have a lot to improve. They have been very expensive and have lacked game-changing spells from their key bowlers. TEAMS PREVIEW Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders must be hopeful of making it to the playoffs. It is not an easy way ahead for the Knight Riders as they not only need to win every game while maintaining a good NRR but would also be dependent on other results. The race to the top 4 is getting much tougher by the day. Ajinkya Rahane will back his players to carry their winning momentum into this game. After a few hiccups at the home venue, KKR are back to winning ways. They are yet to master their bowling performances, but the batters have raised hopes. Andre Russell’s fifty in the last match was a glimpse into what he’s capable of and has delivered for the franchise over the years. Rinku Singh is another great finisher in the lineup. If Rahane and Angkrish Raghuvanshi can set a good platform with a solid partnership in the middle, these two finishers can propel the Knight Riders to a big total. Vaibhav Arora and Harshit Rana have been expensive for KKR. The pace bowling duo is the face of KKR’s bowling attack and will continue to lead them for many years. Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy will be crucial in the spin-bowling department. Chennai Super Kings Preview Chennai Super Kings’ losing run in IPL 2025 continues. They should have won the last match against RCB with two legends of the game at the crease and not a very big ask in the last over. The time has come for CSK to realize that they need to look for new match-winners in the squad and go about restructuring. MS Dhoni and Ravindra Jadeja can no longer pull off the wins they once did. Ayush Mhatre’s 94 off 48 balls put the Super Kings in the driver’s seat in the run-chase. The 17-year-old batsman was playing only his 4th IPL game as he missed a hundred by just 6 runs. Shaik Rasheed and Mahtre could be Chennai’s next generation of big-hitting top-order batters. There is great potential in these two. Ravindra Jadeja played a highly impactful knock after quite a long time. He will be one to watch out for in this match, along with Sam Curran. The two all-rounders are in fine rhythm and can take the struggling and inconsistent KKR bowlers to the cleaners. In the lower middle order, the likes of Shivam Dube and Dewald Brewis can put on a fine performance to end the innings on a high. There has been a lot of experimentation in this batting order in the last few games. Khaleel Ahmed hasn’t been consistent with his economy or wickets. He needs support from Anshul Kamboj and Matheesha Pathirana in the pace department. It is not going to be an easy outing for CSK bowlers either. Weather Conditions There would be thundershowers in Kolkata on the match day. However, by the time of the match, it would be mostly cloudy with a high of 32 degrees Celsius. The weather should not affect the outcome of this match, and we expect to have a result. KKR vs CSK Pitch Report  looks like a fine batting track at the Eden Gardens in Kolkata. RR bounced back after losing half of the side for under 100 runs in the last game. There is plenty of help for the batters on this wicket. The average 1st innings score in the last 5 matches here is 209 runs. Teams batting first have reached the 200-run mark on this ground in 4 of the last 5 matches. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first have won 4 of the 5 IPL matches played at this venue in 2025. Though it was a very narrow win for KKR in the last outing, we would still back the team batting first on this ground, considering the inconsistencies and unpredictability in both lineups. Having runs on the board would give the team a huge advantage in this contest.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings​​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 03, Saturday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 07:50 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Can CSK settle scores with RCB? Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. RCB vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis RCB are on a roll this season. They’ve been exceptional under the new captain, and their star batsman, Virat Kohli, has also found his mojo this year. With Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Josh Hazlewood, and Krunal Pandya in the bowling attack, RCB have done away with all their bowling woes from previous seasons. CSK, on the other hand, are having a season to forget. MS Dhoni hasn’t flourished and delivered as expected of him in the finisher’s role. The franchise didn’t make the right decisions in the auction either. The squad strength isn’t that great, and even with MSD at the helm of affairs, the 5-time champions continue to struggle this year. There have been very poor batting performances from the men in yellow. RCB’s bowling attack would be too strong for the CSK batters, and we reckon Rajat Patidar and co. will get to their second home win of the season in this match. TEAMS PREVIEW Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview It has taken RCB some time to get their combinations right. Even with a star-studded side in the past, they would fail to deliver consistently. When they made it to the playoffs, they would collapse in the knockout games. The major issue with this team was the lack of reliable Indian players in the side and over-reliance on overseas stars. Rajat Patidar has led RCB from the front and has found new match-winners. RCB are no longer dependent on Kohli. Devdutt Padikkal, back in RCB colors, has been in fine touch, and we expect him to deliver big at the Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. Rajat Patidar comes in at number 4 and never lets the momentum fade away. His ability to strike the ball from the get-go makes him a special player. The batting lineup goes deep with Krunal Pandya, Tim David, and Jitesh Sharma in the lower middle order. Jitesh Sharma is another great find and has the confidence to be a finisher. He’s a reliable batter and will be one to watch out for in this match. RCB will be delighted with their bowling strength this year. Chennai Super Kings Preview The Chennai Super Kings are having one of their worst IPL seasons ever. It is not just the number of matches they’ve lost, but the way they’ve played so far. They have lacked the winning spirit and looked stuck in the old ways of playing T20 cricket. There are structural issues as far as the squad strength is concerned. And then there is the way CSK players go about their business on the field. The bowling attack isn’t impressive at all. Mathisha Patheerana, who was a match-winner for CSK in previous seasons, has been out of form for quite some time. And that has hurt CSK a lot this year. Khaleel Ahmed, who’s played 67 IPL matches, hasn’t really made a big impact this season. He’s had a few good outings, but overall, he’s not threatened the opposition as much. Spinners R Ashwin and R Jadeja are the senior pros in this side. Noor Ahmed was impressive in the early games, but the spin-bowling attack also faltered as the season progressed. At the moment, there aren’t many reliable or in-form bowlers in the side. Khaleel Ahmed will be a key player, and we expect him to deliver breakthroughs in this game. The batting lineup is deep and features some quality batters. But the approach hasn’t been right and that’s what’s keeping CSK from delivering impactful performances. Weather Conditions Light rain is expected in Bengaluru with a high of 24 degrees Celsius around the match time. We can expect a few overs to be reduced if the game continues after rain stops. However, it looks unlikely that we would have a toss given the weather forecast. RCB vs CSK Pitch Report The pitch at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium is a batting paradise. It will be quite tricky for the bowlers to contain the flow of runs. Expect pacers to deliver slower deliveries from the back of the wrist to pick wickets on this pitch. The average 1st innings score in the last 4 matches here is 158 runs. However, a match-winning total would be something over 200 runs at this venue. Toss: To Bowl Teams bowling first have won 3 of the 4 IPL matches at this venue so far. The ground is a delight for teams batting second, and we’ve witnessed many high-scoring thrillers where teams have chased down big totals over the years.

Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 30, Wednesday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 CSK’s big test to rewind the magic of the past Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. CSK vs PBKS Match Prediction & Analysis It is the deciding stage in the Indian Premier League 2025, where the result of the next few games will decide the playoff berths. The Chennai Super Kings have their last shot at the playoffs as they take on the Punjab Kings in the 49th match. The Super Kings went down against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last game. The Punjab Kings shared points with the Kolkata Knight Riders after rain washed away play.  The Chennai Super Kings have struggled with their form this season. They have lost seven out of nine games. The batting lineup has looked rusty, and the bowling attack hasn’t troubled the opponents. The Punjab Kings are in good form and have won the last four out of five games against the Super Kings. It remains to be seen if the Super Kings can win here and keep their hopes alive. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview MS Dhoni’s team went down by 5 wickets against the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last game. It is becoming one of their worst seasons, with the team sitting at the bottom of the points. They still have a technical chance of reaching the playoffs and need a big win in this game. Dhoni will expect a strong show from his players as the Punjab Kings are in good form this season.  The top order has been a pain for the team this season. Shaik Rasheed and Ayush Mhatre must deliver a good start in this game and lay a strong platform. The team expects runs in the middle order, and Sam Curran, Ravindra Jadeja, and Dewald Brevis will look to do well. Shivam Dube has batted well in the lower middle order and shall look to add quick runs with Deepak Hooda and Dhoni.  The bowling attack has struggled this season. Khaleel Ahmed and Anshul Kamboj will look to put up a good show with the new ball, as the Punjab Kings have an explosive opening pair. The team needs tight spells from Noor Ahmed and Ravindra Jadeja in the middle overs. Sam Curran and Matheesha Pathirana must do well in the supporting role and avoid leaking runs like the earlier game. Punjab Kings Preview Shreyas Iyer and his team would have been upset to have shared the points with the Kolkata Knight Riders in the last game. They had a big score on the board, but rain played spoilsport in the second half. Iyer would like to exploit CSK’s lack of form and win this game by a big margin to improve their position on the points table.  Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya put up a 120-run stand in the last game, and the team expects a strong start from this pair. Shreyas Iyer is batting well in the middle order, and he will look to add runs with Josh Inglis and Nehal Wadhera. Glenn Maxwell, Shashank Singh, and Marco Jansen add firepower to the batting lineup, making it strong.  The bowling attack will look to exploit the poor form of CSK batters. Arshdeep Singh and Azmatullah Omarzai will look to get the early breakthroughs in this game. Marco Jansen and Yuzvendra Chahal are in good form, and the team expects them to do well. Harpreet Brar and Maxwell add bowling options for the team.  Weather Conditions It will be a hot and humid evening in Chennai with clear skies. The wicket will be challenging to bat on as the ball stops on the batsmen. We have seen an average first innings score of less than 160 runs, and the team batting first will be happy to have 160 on the board. CSK vs PBKS Pitch Report MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, balances it out between the bat and the ball in T20 cricket. Batsmen have to spend their time at the crease to score runs here. Fast bowlers who hit the deck hard have done well on this surface. Spinners enjoy the slowness on the track as this allows them to experiment with their variations. Toss: To Bowl The wicket has slowed down since the start of the tournament. It is a difficult wicket to set up a big total as batsmen struggle to time the ball. The team that chased the score in the last two games easily won. The side winning the toss won’t hesitate to bowl first on this wicket.

Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad​​𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 25, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 CSK’s tough challenge to fix the Chepauk puzzle Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad ​ TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. CSK vs SRH Match Prediction & Analysis The points table pressure is catching up on teams as we enter the most crucial phase in the Indian Premier League 2025. We will have an interesting contest where Chennai Super Kings take on the Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 43rd game. Both teams must win this game to reach the next round. The two teams lost their last games, coincidentally against the Mumbai Indians for both teams. They will look to revive their form with a strong performance in this contest.   The Chennai Super Kings have lost the last three games at home. The batting lineup fails to put up runs on the board, and the bowling attack looks ineffective. The side must fight hard in the middle to win this game. The Sunrisers have struggled with the ball, but their batting lineup has shown sparks of brilliance. A lot is at stake for the two teams in this game, and we expect a close contest. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview Things are getting tough for MS Dhoni and his men. The season has turned into a nightmare for the four-time champions. The team suffered its biggest loss of the season in the last game against the Mumbai Indians, going down by 9 wickets. The team is struggling with the bat and the ball. Dhoni has vast experience and will look to lift his side back into form with his leadership skills.   The top order has struggled this season. Rachin Ravindra must fire at the top and build partnerships with Shaik Rasheed. SRH bowlers aren’t in great form, giving the openers the perfect opportunity to get things right. Youngster Ayush Mhatre impressed everyone in the last game, and he must add runs in the middle order with Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dube. MS Dhoni must do the heavy lifting in the final overs with Jamie Overton and Vijay Shankar.    The bowling attack has looked toothless this season and had their worst in the last game. Khaleel Ahmed and Jamie Overton will look to strike early as the Sunrisers’ batsmen come into this game low on confidence. Ravichandran Ashwin and Jadeja must use their experience and do well in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana and Noor Ahmed will look to bowl better lines than what they have done. Sunrisers Hyderabad Preview From being the finalist last season to an extended struggle this year, Pat Cummins and his men have hit a low. The side suffered a 7-wicket loss against the Mumbai Indians in the last game, and they are fighting for their survival in the tournament. The batting lineup is struggling, and the bowling has proved ineffective. Cummins would want his men to pull all socks and win here to keep hopes alive.   Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma are struggling, and the team needs a better start at the top to lay a strong foundation. The middle order failed in the last game, and the team expects a strong show from Ishan Kishan, Nitish Kumar Reddy, and Heinrich Klaasen. Aniket Verma, Abhinav Manohar, and Pat Cummins must do the heavy lifting in the lower middle order.   Jaydev Unadkat and Pat Cummins struggled with the new ball in the last game, and the team expects early strikes from this pair. Zeeshan Ansari and Harshal Patel must check the scoring rate in the middle overs to trouble the CSK batters who have struggled this season with consistency. Eshan Malinga and Abhishek Sharma must deliver the goods in the supporting role. Weather Conditions The skies over Chennai will be clear, and we expect hot and humid conditions. The wicket won’t be easy to bat on, with the ball stopping on the batters occasionally. A score of 180 runs or above will be good, with an average first-inning score of around 150 runs. CSK vs SRH Pitch Report MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is a good venue as it aids both the bowlers and the batsmen. Batsmen must play to the ball’s merit, as fast bowlers get some early assistance from the surface. The track is slow, and spinners have always enjoyed bowling on this surface. Toss: To Bat Chennai is known for being a difficult surface for run chases. It is the slowest surface in the tournament and tends to slow down as the game progresses. The side that wins the toss would take advantage of the conditions by batting first.

Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : ​​​​​​Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 14, Monday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Chennai Super Kings have struggled against Lucknow Super Giants in the IPL, winning just one of their four meetings. , Lucknow Super Giants vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. LSG vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) face off against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 30th match of IPL 2025 this Monday in Lucknow. LSG have punched above their weight so far with four wins and two losses, landing them in third place. CSK kicked off their campaign with a win but haven’t been able to recover after that, slumping to five straight defeats and falling to ninth place. With home support behind them and CSK struggling to find their rhythm, LSG look better placed going into this one. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Not many backed Lucknow Super Giants when the season began, but they’ve pulled off four wins from six and now sit third in the standings. They’re coming off a 6-wicket win over Gujarat Titans at the Ekana, where they chased 181 with three balls to spare. What’ll encourage them most is doing it without Mitchell Marsh, who was unavailable due to personal reasons. It’s still unclear if he’ll be back for the next game. Nicholas Pooran (61 off 34) and Aiden Markram (58 off 31) were the standouts in the last match, both playing impactful knocks to ease the chase. Pooran is now leading the IPL 2025 run charts—349 runs in six games at an average of 69.80 and a blistering strike rate of 215.43. Markram’s growing in confidence too, up to 202 runs with a strike rate of 153.03. If Marsh returns, LSG will have a stacked top order.  But the rest of the batting hasn’t quite held up. Rishabh Pant’s struggled badly—only 40 runs in five innings—and the pressure has crept into the middle order. David Miller has looked out of rhythm too, unable to find any timing. Chennai Super Kings Preview Things are going downhill fast for Chennai Super Kings, who just suffered their fifth loss in a row—this time a brutal 8-wicket defeat to Kolkata Knight Riders at home. It was a sorry effort from the five-time champs, putting up just 103-9 after being sent in. KKR chased it with ease in only 10.1 overs. Regular captain Ruturaj Gaikwad missing the rest of the season with injury only adds to CSK’s headaches. He was their most reliable batter, and without him, their top order looks shaky. Conway and Ravindra have to step up now, but so far, it hasn’t been convincing. Ravindra hasn’t been able to build a proper innings, and Conway’s been hot and cold. The middle-order isn’t helping either. Rahul Tripathi and Vijay Shankar have failed to build momentum after early wickets, and haven’t been able to accelerate either. Weather Conditions At Ekana, batters might need to ease into their innings instead of swinging from ball one, though scoring won’t be too tough once they settle. The pitch tends to get slower and two-paced as the match goes on, which should suit the spinners in the middle overs. Fast bowlers will need to rely on variations—cutters and slower deliveries—to limit the damage.  The Lucknow heat and humidity will be a factor, but there’s no rain in the forecast to worry about. LSG vs CSK Pitch Report The average first innings score at Ekana Cricket Stadium tends to hover around 166. Last season, Kolkata Knight Riders’ 235 for 6 against Lucknow Super Giants was the highest team total here, a game they game by 98 runs.

Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : ​​​​​​Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 11, Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 7:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Chennai Super Kings have a great record against Kolkata Knight Riders at the MA Chidambaram Stadium – 8 wins and only three losses. Chennai Super Kings vs Kolkata Knight Riders TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. CSK vs KKR Match Prediction & Analysis Match 25 of IPL 2025 sees Chennai Super Kings (CSK) take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Chennai this Friday. CSK are having a torrid season so far, with just one win and four losses. KKR, last year’s champs, haven’t exactly had a smooth run either, sitting on two wins and three losses. Both sides head into this one after a defeat, and pressure is mounting. CSK will be banking on familiar conditions to pull off a much-needed win, but KKR have the tools to handle this surface and won’t go down without a fight. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview CSK’s season has taken a nosedive after a bright start. Since their opening win, they’ve slumped to four straight losses, sitting at ninth place with a weak NRR of -0.889. Their most recent defeat came against Punjab Kings, losing by 18 runs despite putting up 201-5 in response to a 220-run target. There were some positives with the bat, which might help build some momentum going forward. Still, there’s plenty to fix across the board. The top order—Rachin Ravindra, Devon Conway, and Ruturaj Gaikwad—has been patchy and way too cautious during the powerplay, putting the rest of the lineup under unnecessary pressure. Shivam Dube brought some spark with a solid 42 off 27 last game, and Dhoni’s 27 off 12 added a late push. But outside of them, there just isn’t enough firepower to finish games. Relying on Dhoni at 43 or expecting Jadeja and Ashwin to go big at the death isn’t a winning formula. The bowling hasn’t helped their case either. Khaleel Ahmed’s been sharp with the new ball, grabbing 10 wickets at an 8.25 economy. You can almost count on him to strike early. Noor Ahmad has stood out as well, leading the team with 11 wickets at 8.33. He’ll be a big factor at Chidambaram. Kolkata Knight Riders Preview Kolkata Knight Riders have had a stop-start season so far, with two wins and three losses. Just when it feels like they’ve turned a corner, they slip up again. In their last outing, they came close to chasing down a massive 239 at home, falling short by just four runs. It was a match they’d feel they should’ve won, especially after cruising at 162-2 in 13 overs before collapsing under pressure. That said, the batting effort was still promising. Skipper Ajinkya Rahane led the charge with a fluent 61 off 35, while Venkatesh Iyer (45 off 29) and Sunil Narine (30 off 13) chipped in with useful cameos. Rinku Singh’s 38* off 15 at the back end gave them a chance, but it wasn’t quite enough. Their batting looks solid on paper, though Quinton de Kock’s patchy form hasn’t helped their cause. Andre Russell hasn’t found his rhythm with the bat either, and Ramandeep Singh has struggled to get going. Their bowling took a beating in that high-scoring game, but the surface at Chidambaram Stadium should work in their favor. Varun Chakaravarthy and Sunil Narine could make a big impact with their combined eight overs. Moeen Ali might also slot into the XI, likely replacing Spencer Johnson, adding another spin option and some depth to the batting. Weather Conditions Spin will be king at Chepauk again, with the surface slowing down considerably as the game progresses. Batsmen will need to capitalize during powerplays before the ball softens and starts gripping. Most overs will likely go to spinners in these slow conditions. Weather-wise, players can expect standard Chennai heat and humidity under clear skies. CSK vs KKR Pitch Report Chepauk tends to produce first-innings scores around 160. Out of the three matches played here in IPL 2025, the biggest total so far came from Royal Challengers Bengaluru, who put up 196-7 against CSK and won that one by 50 runs. The pitch should play slow again, offering plenty for the spinners. A first-innings target in the 170-180 range would put the batting side in a solid position. Toss: To Bat Recent results at Chepauk favor the team that bats first – they’ve won the last two IPL 2025 contests at this venue. The surface tends to get slower as the game progresses, creating tougher conditions for chasing teams in the second innings.

Punjab Kings vs Chennai Super Kings, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​​​​ Punjab Kings vs Chennai Super Kings​ 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : April 08, Tuesday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 :​ Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League 2025 Clash of the Wounded Titans: PBKS and CSK Look to Roar Back After Crushing Defeats. Punjab Kings vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PBKS vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis The Punjab Kings (PBKS) are set to face the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 22nd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 on April 8, 2025, at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur, Chandigarh. Both teams are eager to rebound after recent losses, making this a crucial encounter for their standings in the tournament. PBKS started the season with two consecutive victories but faced a setback in their recent match against the Rajasthan Royals, losing by 50 runs. Despite the standout performance from Nehal Wadhera (62 off 41), the failure of the top order hampered Punjab Kings’ chances to continue the unbeaten run. The team aims to regain momentum in this fixture. Chennai Super Kings (CSK) have played four matches in the IPL 2025 season, securing one win and suffering three losses. After the victory in the first game of the season against the Mumbai Indians, CSK has now lost the next three games against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the Rajasthan Royals, and the Delhi Capitals. All three losses have come chasing the target. TEAMS PREVIEW Punjab Kings Preview Priyansh Arya will open the innings with Prabhasimran Singh. Arya played a knock of 47 runs off 23 deliveries against Gujarat Titans while Singh scored a half-century (69 off 34) in the second game. PBKS’ skipper Shreyas Iyer will be the batter to watch out for. Iyer has scored two unbeaten half-centuries (97* & 52*) in the first two games, hitting 13 sixes. Nehal Wadhera will come at number four. Wadhera scored 62 off 41 balls in the last game. Shashank Singh will come in the middle with all-rounders Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis. Singh scored 44 off 16 balls in the second game. But in the last game, he managed to score just 10 off 13 balls.  Maxwell scored 30 runs in the last game but has picked up two wickets with the ball so far. On the other hand, Stoinis has had a poor run with the bat and the ball this season. Arshdeep Singh will lead the bowling attack with Lockie Ferguson and Marco Jenson. Singh will be the bowler to watch out for. He has picked up 6 wickets in the three games. His economy is just below 10. Jansen has two wickets while Ferguson has three in two games. The PBKS bowlers are yet to show their strength. Chahal will be the lead spinner in the bowling attack. Chennai Super Kings Preview Just four matches into IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings have already rotated through 17 players, including all seven of their overseas options, as they continue to search for the right balance and a winning formula. Ruturaj Gaikwad will open the innings with Rachin Ravindra. Gaikwad has 121 runs in four games with two half-centuries at a strike rate of 155 – the highest among the batters. He will be the batter to watch out for. Ravindra has 109 runs in four games. Conway will come in at number three. He scored 13 runs in the last game.  Vijay Shankar will come in the middle with Ravindra Jadeja and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Shankar played a knock of 69 runs in the last game. Jadeja has been poor with the bat, posting 76 runs. He has just two wickets with the ball so far. MS Dhoni has 76 runs in three innings at a strike rate of 138. CSK is facing trouble with their super-sub Shivam Dube. Dube has just 64 runs in four innings. Noor Ahmed will lead the bowling attack with Matheesha Pathirana and Khaleel Ahmed. Noor has 10 wickets in four games at an average of 11.80 – the lowest among the bowlers.

CSK vs DC Match Prediction & Analysis We have had exciting games in the first quarter of games in the Indian Premier League 2025, and the points table is slowly taking shape. Hosts Chennai Super Kings will face the heat as they take on the Delhi Capitals in the 17th game. In the last game, the Super Kings went down against the Rajasthan Royals and must win here to find their momentum. Delhi Capitals have done well, and the team enters this game with a victory against the Sunrisers Hyderabad.  The Chennai Super Kings have a good record against Delhi Capitals, and the team has won four out of the last five games between the two teams. Their record at Chennai against the Capitals is even more impressive. The Capitals won’t be a pushover, as they have won both games. It will be interesting to see if the Capitals can overcome their poor record at the Chepauk. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview Things have got tough for Ruturaj Gaikwad’s side. They started the season with a win but have suffered back-to-back losses heading into this contest. The team went down by 6 runs in the last game against the Rajasthan Royals, making a mess of the chase in the final overs. Gaikwad must lift spirits in the camp and win this game to regain their momentum and keep hopes alive.  Rachin Ravindra and Rahul Tripathi must deliver a good start in the game, as the lack of runs at the top has been one of their major worries this season. Ruturaj Gaikwad is the mainstay in the middle order, and he must do well with Shivam Dube and Vijay Shankar. Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, and Jamie Overton are good hitters, and the team expects a strong show in the final overs.  The bowling attack has struggled in the last two games and must execute its plans thoroughly in this game. The team expects early wickets from Khaleel Ahmed and Jamie Overton, as the Delhi Capitals have good hitters. Ravichandran Ashwin and Jadeja will find help from the surface and must do well in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana and Noor Ahmed look forward to excelling in the supporting role. Delhi Capitals Preview Axar Patel has made a strong start as the team’s new skipper. The team has won both games and comes here with a 7-wicket win against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Patel would like his players to continue with the winning streak. However, they have struggled against CSK in the earlier seasons, and the Delhi Capitals’ skipper wants his team to overcome that poor record.  Jake Fraser-McGurk and Faf du Plessis will be confident after their good start in the last game. The pair must lay a strong platform at the top. The middle order has looked good, and the team expects Abishek Porel, KL Rahul, and Karun Nair to build partnerships. With their hitting abilities, Tristan Stubbs and Axar Patel complete a strong batting lineup for the team.  Mitchell Starc bowled a match-winning spell in the last game, and he will look to strike early along with Mukesh Kumar and put the Super Kings under pressure. Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav form a strong spin attack for the team, and their performance will be crucial. Mohit Sharma and Vipraj Nigam add variety to this bowling attack.  Weather Conditions The skies over Chennai will be clear, and we expect a good game. The wicket will play well at the start, but it will be on the slower side, where the ball isn’t going to hit the bat hard. A score of 180 runs or above will be a good one with the average first innings score around 150 runs.  CSK vs DC Pitch Report MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is a good venue as it aids both the bowlers and the batsmen, a rarity on Indian surfaces. Batsmen must play to the ball’s merit, as fast bowlers get some early assistance from the surface. The track is slow, and spinners have always enjoyed bowling on this surface. Toss: To Bat As we saw in the last game, the wicket at Chennai is known for being a difficult surface to chase a score. The wicket tends to slow down as the game progresses. The side that wins the toss would aim to put up a good score on the board and defend it successfully.

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​​ Rajasthan Royals vs Chennai Super Kings 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 30, Sunday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 17:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Must-win game for Rajasthan Royals after back-to-back losses  Rajasthan Royals vs Chennai Super Kings TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. RR vs CSK Match Prediction & Analysis We are over with the first round of games in the Indian Premier League 2025. The Rajasthan Royals will be under immense pressure as they face the Chennai Super Kings in the 11th game of the season. In their last game, the Royals suffered a crushing defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders. The Chennai Super Kings also went down against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in the last game and shall look for a strong comeback.   The Rajasthan Royals’ bowling attack has been all over the place in two games. They haven’t troubled the batters, lowering their confidence in the camp. The side must get its acts together in this game. The Chennai Super Kings have a strong bowling attack and depth in the batting. The Royals must win here to regain their confidence, and it will be interesting to see if they are up for the task.  TEAMS PREVIEW Rajasthan Royals Preview Riyan Parag and his team will face the heat headlining into their 3rd game.  The team has suffered big losses in its two games and went down by 8 wickets against the Kolkata Knight Riders. The bowling attack looks rusty, and this will be a massive challenge for the team against the Super Kings’ batting depth. Parag must inspire confidence in his players and win here to earn their first points.    Sanju Samson and Yashasvi Jaiswal didn’t look at their best in the last two games, and the onus will be on them to deliver a good start. The middle order packs a punch, and the team needs a good show from Riyan Parag, Shimron Hetmyer, and Nitish Rana. Wanindu Hasaranga, Dhruv Jurel, and Shubham Dubey can hit the ball cleanly, and they will look to add quick runs.   The bowling attack will be under pressure after ordinary performances in back-to-back games. Fazalhaq Farooqi, who replaces Jofra Archer, must bowl a good spell with Maheesh Theekshana. Hasaranga must bring his experience to play and do well in the middle overs with Parag and Sandeep Sharma. The side will also expect a good show in the supporting role from Nitish Rana and Tushar Deshpande. Chennai Super Kings Preview Ruturaj Gaikwad’s side suffered an uncharacteristic loss in their last game against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The team went down by 50 runs after their strong batting lineup failed to deliver the goods. Gaikwad would like to put this loss behind and come up with a strong show in this game. Their opponents are struggling, and CSK will look to exploit this weakness.   Rachin Ravindra and Rahul Tripathi will look to take on Rajasthan’s new-ball attack, which has struggled so far. The middle order failed in the last game, and the team expects partnerships between Ruturaj Gaikwad, Deepak Hooda, and Sam Curran. They have depth in the batting and shall expect quick runs from Shivam Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, and Ravichandran Ashwin in the lower middle order.   The bowling attack didn’t use the conditions well in the last game, and the team needs early strikes from Khaleel Ahmed and Ravichandran Ashwin. Ravindra Jadeja and Sam Curran must keep things in check in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana, Shivam Dube, and Noor Ahmed add depth to the attack. Weather Conditions We expect clear skies over Guwahati. The batting surface will be flat, where batsmen can play their strokes. There is a hint of slowness on this track, which offers an advantage to the spinners. The average first-inning score has been around 173 runs, and the team batting first would be happy to have 190 runs on the board. RR vs CSK Pitch Report Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati, is large and not the easiest venue for scoring big. Fast bowlers get assistance from the surface early in the game. Batsmen who build their innings have done well. Spinners, who turn the ball sharply, have done well at this venue. Toss: To Bowl The conditions are challenging for the batsmen in the first 10 overs but ease in the second half. The side chasing the score has won the last two games easily. Dew also plays a role in the evening when bowling gets tougher. The side winning the toss would look to bowl first on this track.

Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction​

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :​​​ Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : March 28, Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : M. A. Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, India​𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : IPLT20 2025​ Chennai Super Kings have lost just one game out of nine against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at Chepauk.  Chennai Super Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. CSK vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) lock horns in what promises to be a thrilling battle at the MA Chidambaram Stadium for match eight of IPL 2025. Both teams head into this clash with confidence after securing wins in their opening games. While CSK have often had the upper hand in past encounters, RCB appear more well-rounded this season. Expect a high-intensity showdown with both sides pushing for an early edge in the tournament. TEAMS PREVIEW Chennai Super Kings Preview Chennai Super Kings (CSK) kicked off their IPL 2025 campaign with a solid win over long-time rivals Mumbai Indians. Playing on a typical slow Chepauk surface, their spinners kept MI in check, limiting them to 155-9. The chase wasn’t without hiccups, but CSK reached the target with four wickets in hand and five balls remaining. Rachin Ravindra anchored the innings with a composed 65 off 45 deliveries, while skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad provided early momentum with a brisk 53 off 26. Apart from their contributions, the batting lineup struggled, yet the team managed to get the job done. CSK will once again count on strong starts from Rachin and Gaikwad. Gaikwad, in particular, has a great record at Chepauk and will be counted on to deliver.  Shivam Dube is expected to take on RCB’s spinners in the middle phase, while Vijay Shankar could be considered in place of Deepak Hooda to stabilize the middle order. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Royal Challengers Bengaluru made a strong statement in their season opener, pulling off a convincing win against defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders on their own turf. They kept KKR to 174-8 and then chased it down comfortably in 16.2 overs, losing only three wickets along the way. Bengaluru delivered in all departments, with Philip Salt (56 off 31) and Virat Kohli (59* off 36) putting on a batting masterclass at the top to make things easy in the chase. Rajat Patidar played his part as well, smashing 34 off just 16 balls to seal the victory. Their top order looks solid with Kohli, Salt, Patidar, and Liam Livingstone, while Jitesh Sharma, Tim David, and Krunal Pandya provide depth in the middle and lower order. Josh Hazlewood could be a game-changer for RCB this season. The Australian pacer was outstanding against KKR, picking up 2-22, and will enjoy bowling at Chepauk. Krunal Pandya’s 3-29 played a decisive role in the previous match, making him a key asset on slower tracks. RCB will also count on Suyash Sharma, Livingstone, and Yash Dayal to pick up wickets in the middle overs. Weather Conditions Chepauk will offer a spin-friendly surface as we saw in the first game here, which becomes slower in the second innings. Batters will look to maximize the powerplay overs because once the ball loses its shine, it will start to turn and grip more. Spinners will have a field day and are likely to bowl the maximum number of overs.  The weather in Chennai will be hot and humid but clear. CSK vs RCB Pitch Report Chepauk’s average first-innings score is 159. In the first match of IPL 2025 played at the venue, MI scored 155-9 after batting first, and CSK chased the target down in 19.1 overs with four wickets in hand. Expect another slowish surface with plenty of assistance to spinners. The team batting first will target a score of around 170-180 to feel confident. Toss: To Bat Batting first is usually the better option at Chepauk, unless the team is bundled out for a below-par score. The wicket slows down over time, making it harder to chase later in the game.
