PBKS started the season with two consecutive victories but faced a setback in their recent match against the Rajasthan Royals, losing by 50 runs.

After the victory in the first game of the season against the Mumbai Indians, CSK has now lost the next three games against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the Rajasthan Royals, and the Delhi Capitals. All three losses have come chasing the target.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) secured a 28-run victory over the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in their last game against each other. Ravindra Jadeja was the top scorer with 43 runs off 26 balls, showcasing his all-around capabilities.

TEAMS PREVIEW
Punjab Kings Preview
Priyansh Arya will open the innings with Prabhasimran Singh. Arya played a knock of 47 runs off 23 deliveries against Gujarat Titans while Singh scored a half-century (69 off 34) in the second game. PBKS’ skipper Shreyas Iyer will be the batter to watch out for. Iyer has scored two unbeaten half-centuries (97* & 52*) in the first two games, hitting 13 sixes. Nehal Wadhera will come at number four. Wadhera scored 62 off 41 balls in the last game.
Shashank Singh will come in the middle with all-rounders Glenn Maxwell and Marcus Stoinis. Singh scored 44 off 16 balls in the second game. But in the last game, he managed to score just 10 off 13 balls. Maxwell scored 30 runs in the last game but has picked up two wickets with the ball so far. On the other hand, Stoinis has had a poor run with the bat and the ball this season.
Arshdeep Singh will lead the bowling attack with Lockie Ferguson and Marco Jenson. Singh will be the bowler to watch out for. He has picked up 6 wickets in the three games. His economy is just below 10. Jansen has two wickets while Ferguson has three in two games. The PBKS bowlers are yet to show their strength. Chahal will be the lead spinner in the bowling attack.
Key Players: Shreyas Iyer, Prabhsimran Singh, Arshdeep Singh.
PBKS Over/Under Betting Tips
Prabhsimran Singh has scored 91 runs in 3 matches, out of which he has scored 48 runs in 4's. So far this season he is averaging 4 fours per match. He is a destructive player and only likes to deal in boundaries, expect another blitz from this pocket dynamo from Punjab and hit over 1.5 fours.
Shreyas Iyer is in sublime form this season and so far has hit 10 fours in three matches averaging 3.3 fours per match. He comes to bat number 3 and scores most of his runs in boundaries and also a good player of spin. We predict Iyer will take down the CSK spinners and hit over 2.5 fours.
The captain of Punjab Kings has decimated the opponent bowlers in the two matches played so far amassing 159 runs in 3 matches. Against CSK, Iyer has scored 290 runs in 13 matches, averaging 26.36. Given his commendable form, we back Iyer to score over 27 runs against the men in yellow.
Punjab Kings Predicted Playing XI:
Priyansh Arya, Prabhsimran Singh (wk), Shreyas Iyer (c), Shashank Singh, Marcus Stoinis, Glenn Maxwell, Suryansh Shedge, Marco Jansen, Lockie Ferguson, Yuzvendra Chahal, Arshdeep Singh.

Chennai Super Kings Preview
Just four matches into IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings have already rotated through 17 players, including all seven of their overseas options, as they continue to search for the right balance and a winning formula. Ruturaj Gaikwad will open the innings with Rachin Ravindra. Gaikwad has 121 runs in four games with two half-centuries at a strike rate of 155 - the highest among the batters. He will be the batter to watch out for. Ravindra has 109 runs in four games. Conway will come in at number three. He scored 13 runs in the last game.
Vijay Shankar will come in the middle with Ravindra Jadeja and Mahendra Singh Dhoni. Shankar played a knock of 69 runs in the last game. Jadeja has been poor with the bat, posting 76 runs. He has just two wickets with the ball so far. MS Dhoni has 76 runs in three innings at a strike rate of 138. CSK is facing trouble with their super-sub Shivam Dube. Dube has just 64 runs in four innings.
Noor Ahmed will lead the bowling attack with Matheesha Pathirana and Khaleel Ahmed. Noor has 10 wickets in four games at an average of 11.80 - the lowest among the bowlers. He will be the bowler to watch out for. Khalleel has also picked up 8 wickets at an average of 15. On the other hand, Pathirana has 5 wickets in three games. CSK spinners are yet to find their magic with Ashwin leading the attack.
Key Players: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Noor Ahmed, Matheesha Pathirana.
CSK Over/Under Betting Tips
Noor Ahmad is the leading wicket-taker in the season with 10 wickets in 4 matches. He has picked up over one wicket in three of the four matches played. On a pitch where spinners get some assistance and more right handers in the Punjab Kings batting lineup the match up favours him.
Chennai Super Kings Predicted Playing XI:
Rachin Ravindra, Devon Conway, Ruturaj Gaikwad (c), Vijay Shankar, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, Mukesh Choudhary, Khaleel Ahmed, Matheesha Pathirana.

PBKS vs CSK
Winning Prediction
With three losses in the last three games, CSK has a foot backward against Punjab Kings. Kings are currently dependent on Shreyas Iyer and Nehal Wadhera at the top, while their bowlers have struggled to put the pressure on the opposition. CSK has a better batting lineup. Their bowlers are having a good run compared to the Punjab Kings.
We predict that Chennai Super Kings will defeat Punjab Kings.
