In contrast, the Chennai Super Kings are having a tough season. With just one victory in five outings, they continue to struggle in finding the right balance within their squad. The absence of Ruturaj Gaikwad due to injury has further compounded their problems. Even the return of MS Dhoni to the leadership role hasn't sparked a turnaround, as CSK recently slumped to a disappointing loss against KKR. Check IPL 2025 LSG vs CSK LIVE SCORE UPDATES here
With LSG in top form and enjoying home advantage, the upcoming fixture may heavily tilt in their favor. Unless CSK discover a spark soon, this contest could prove to be another tough outing for the Men in Yellow.
