Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) will take one each other in the 49th match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025. The match is scheduled to be played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai. This game is crucial for both the teams. CSK are in a difficult position. If they lose this game, they will be eliminated from the Playoffs, missing the playoffs for the second consecutive year. The team has experimented with new things this season. They have used 21 players in nine games and even fielded their youngest team since 2009 in the previous game. They are providing opportunities to young players, but they still need to win more games to remain in the competition. PBKS too are under some pressure. They have earned only a single point in their last two matches and are mid-table in the points table. Their middle order has not been properly tested, and therefore they could possibly think of introducing one additional batter. One of their rising stars, Priyansh Arya, who scored a 39-ball hundred against CSK in the previous match, is looking forward to finally encountering MS Dhoni in this game. The rivalry has seen plenty of memorable matches where numerous records have been broken and created. This match also promises a similar kind of entertainment. Chennai Super Kings need to win this game to remain in contention mathematically, whereas Punjab Kings will look to win it to strengthen their position in the table. Let's have a look at the stats and milestones that have been created in the past and which can be created in this game.
