Things have got tough for Ruturaj Gaikwad's side. They started the season with a win but have suffered back-to-back losses heading into this contest. The team went down by 6 runs in the last game against the Rajasthan Royals, making a mess of the chase in the final overs. Gaikwad must lift spirits in the camp and win this game to regain their momentum and keep hopes alive.
Rachin Ravindra and Rahul Tripathi must deliver a good start in the game, as the lack of runs at the top has been one of their major worries this season. Ruturaj Gaikwad is the mainstay in the middle order, and he must do well with Shivam Dube and Vijay Shankar. Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni, and Jamie Overton are good hitters, and the team expects a strong show in the final overs.
The bowling attack has struggled in the last two games and must execute its plans thoroughly in this game. The team expects early wickets from Khaleel Ahmed and Jamie Overton, as the Delhi Capitals have good hitters. Ravichandran Ashwin and Jadeja will find help from the surface and must do well in the middle overs. Matheesha Pathirana and Noor Ahmed look forward to excelling in the ing role.
The left arm spinner is the leading wicket taker for CSK this season, he has picked up 9 wickets in 3 matches and has picked up a minimum of two wickets in every match. We back him to continue his good bowling form and take over 1.5 wickets in today's match against Delhi Capitals.
Vijay Shankar scored 9 runs in his first game this season and out of that he smashed one six. Shankar is pre-dominantly known for his big hitting. He has played most of his cricket at Chennai and knows the conditions very well.
Dube hasn't quite made the impact yet for CSK this season. He has scored 18, 19 and 9 runs in the last three matches. But we do back him to have a cracker of an outing against Dehi Capitals. He is an ideal matchup against Delhi's left arm and leg spinners.

Axar Patel has made a strong start as the team's new skipper. The team has won both games and comes here with a 7-wicket win against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Patel would like his players to continue with the winning streak. However, they have struggled against CSK in the earlier seasons, and the Delhi Capitals' skipper wants his team to overcome that poor record.
Jake Fraser-McGurk and Faf du Plessis will be confident after their good start in the last game. The pair must lay a strong platform at the top. The middle order has looked good, and the team expects Abishek Porel, KL Rahul, and Ashutosh Sharma to build partnerships. With their hitting abilities, Tristan Stubbs and Axar Patel complete a strong batting lineup for the team.
Mitchell Starc bowled a match-winning spell in the last game, and he will look to strike early along with Mukesh Kumar and put the Super Kings under pressure. Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav form a strong spin attack for the team, and their performance will be crucial. Mohit Sharma and Vipraj Nigam add variety to this bowling attack.
Faf du Plessis is in sublime form and is coming on the back of a magnificent half century (50 runs in 27 balls) in the last match against SRH. So far Faf has scored 79 runs in 2 matches this season. He has scored 588 runs in 18 innings at Chennai, averaging 36.75.

The skies over Chennai will be clear, and we expect a good game. The wicket will play well at the start, but it will be on the slower side, where the ball isn't going to hit the bat hard. A score of 180 runs or above will be a good one with the average first innings score around 150 runs.

High TurnMA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai, is a good venue as it aids both the bowlers and the batsmen, a rarity on Indian surfaces. Batsmen must play to the ball's merit, as fast bowlers get some early assistance from the surface. The track is slow, and spinners have always enjoyed bowling on this surface.
We are backing the home team, CSK to win the coin toss in match 17 of TATA IPL 2025.
The average total match score in the last three afternoon games played at Chennai is 322 runs. Expect a dry surface that will favour the spinners and it is going to be a tough game for the batters in the scorhing heat of Chennai. We predict a low scoring game and the total match score to be under 341 runs.
As we saw in the last game, the wicket at Chennai is known for being a difficult surface to chase a score. The wicket tends to slow down as the game progresses. The side that wins the toss would aim to put up a good score on the board and defend it successfully.
The Delhi Capitals must overcome the mental obstacle against the Chennai Super Kings. The side has a poor record at this venue and needs a strong show from the bowling attack to take on the mighty batting lineup. The Super Kings have an incredible record at this venue. The side has depth in the batting lineup. Despite losing the last game, the Chennai Super Kings shall start favorites.
Chennai Super Kings to win!
