New Delhi: The Indian Premier League has reached a level where every game or every result will not affect other teams in some way or the other. In the 49th match of the IPL 2025, we are going to witness Chennai Super Kings take on Punjab at the M Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. CSK are experiencing their worst season so far, where they have managed to win only 2 games out of the 9 played and are currently languishing at the bottom of the table. On the other hand, Punjab Kings are stuck at the 5th spot, in the middle of the table, with 5 wins in their 9 matches.
The last time these two teams met this season, Punjab Kings emerged victorious by 18 runs. Priyansh Arya, the young batter from Delhi, stole the spotlight with a blistering 100 off just 38 balls. Punjab’s previous game against KKR ended without a result due to rain. After posting a strong total of 201 in the first innings, they had to settle for just one point instead of the expected two. On the other hand, CSK’s last outing reflected the struggles they’ve faced throughout the season. They were defeated by SRH by 5 wickets after setting a modest target of 155, which was comfortably chased down within 19 overs.
With only a 0.01% chance of qualification, CSK are virtually out of the playoff race. However, they can still spoil and impact other teams’ chances. Will Punjab Kings capitalise on this opportunity and climb to second place in the standings, or will CSK spoil Punjab’s party at their home ground?
