CSK’s middle order once again let them down as they lost their second consecutive match in IPL 2025 on Sunday in Guwahati, going down by 6 runs against RR. On the other hand, this was RR’s first win of the season.
Earlier, CSK won the toss and opted to chase the target in the second innings. RR’s start was less than ideal as they lost their first wicket in the form of Yashasvi Jaiswal (4) in the very first over.
Nitish Rana and Sanju Samson led RR’s fightback and added 82 runs for the second wicket before Noor removed Sanju on 20 to provide CSK with the breakthrough. Rana (81) continued to attack a little longer before Ashwin left him bewildered with a wide ball to get him stumped.
Noor then struck again to remove Dhruv Jurel (4) and get CSK back on top. Jadeja then got the wicket of Wanindu Hasaranga (4) to keep CSK ahead in the match. Skipper Riyan Parag (37) played some big shots before getting bowled by Pathirana.
Khaleel got the better of Jofra Archer (0) to get him caught out before running out Kumar Kartikeya (1) to end his final over on a high. Pathirana finally got Shimron Hetmyer (19) out in the final over, but RR still managed to post a challenging total of 182 for 9 on the board.
In reply, CSK lost their in-form batter Rachin Ravindra (0) to Archer in the very first over. Rahul Tripathi (23) played some big shots before losing his wicket to Hasaranga in an attempt to increase the run rate. Shivam Dube (18) followed Rahul’s footsteps and became Hasaranga’s victim right after he started to shift gears. The spinner struck again to remove Vijay Shankar (9) and put CSK on the back foot in the chase.
However, skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad (63) kept the chase on from one end before Hasaranga struck again to remove him in the 16th over. MS Dhoni (16) was next to depart. Ravindra Jadeja (32 not out) and Jamie Overton (11 not out) kept the chase alive till the last over, but they eventually fell 6 runs short to finish at 176 for 6 after 20 overs.
