Οι CSK και PBKs πολέμησαν με υψηλά ποσοστά στο Chepauk, όταν ο Chennai αγωνίζεται να σώσει την υπερηφάνεια για την χαμένη εποχή και το Penjab, κοιτάζοντας μια ζωτική νίκη για να περάσει στο IPL 2025
A struggling Chennai Super Kings (CSK) side hosts playoff-chasing Punjab Kings (PBKS) in a high-stakes IPL 2025 Match 49 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. CSK have nothing but pride to play for, while PBKS are hunting a vital win to move into the top four in a tightly packed points table.
Punjab, currently fifth, can jump as high as second with a win. CSK, rooted to the bottom with just four points from nine games, are on the verge of missing the playoffs for a second straight season — something that has never happened before in their storied history.

MA Chidambaram Stadium – Pitch Report
Slightly overcast conditions are expected, which might reduce the chance of dew. The pitch — a red-soil central strip — is traditionally slow and spin-friendly. The square boundaries (75m and 72m) are of almost equal length, while the straight boundary measures around 78m. Expect spinners to dominate as the surface grips and holds.
