IPL 2025 highlights PBKS vs CSK
Chennai Super Kings’ (CSK's) season of horror continued on Tuesday as they lost their fourth consecutive match in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025—match number 22—against Punjab Kings (PBKS) in Chandigarh. CSK were tasked with chasing down a daunting total of 220, but despite good innings from Devon Conway and Shivam Dube, they could only reach 199 and lost the game by 20 runs.
MS Dhoni promoted himself to the number five spot but failed to go big in the dying moments. He lost his wicket on the first ball of the final over as CSK ended up on the losing side once again.
Earlier, PBKS won the toss and opted to bat first. Their start was far from ideal. Despite Priyansh's onslaught from one end, they kept losing wickets at the other. Prabhsimran Singh (0), Shreyas Iyer (9), Marcus Stoinis (4), Nehal Wadhera (9) and Glenn Maxwell (1) all failed to reach double digits as CSK reduced PBKS to 83 for 5.
However, Priyansh then turned extra aggressive and scored a 38-ball century to put PBKS en route to a big total before falling for 102 to Noor Ahmed.
In the end, Shashank Singh (52 not out) and Marco Jansen (34 not out) added an unbeaten 65-run stand for the seventh wicket to take PBKS to 219 for 6 after 20 overs.
In reply, CSK posted their best opening partnership of the season, adding 61 runs for the first wicket before Maxwell dismissed Rachin Ravindra (36), stumped. Skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad (1) fell cheaply soon after, as PBKS mounted a strong comeback.
Shivam Dube (42) added 89 runs for the third wicket with Conway to keep CSK in the chase but misjudged a length ball from Lockie Ferguson and was clean bowled. Devon Conway (69) scored a half-century but never looked in supreme touch and eventually retired out to give CSK a tactical chance to accelerate the chase.
However, despite Dhoni’s blistering 27, CSK could only manage 201 in the end and lost the game by 18 runs.
