CSK, led by the legendary MS Dhoni, will rely on their spin-heavy attack and home advantage. Despite recent struggles, SRH, under Pat Cummins, boast a formidable batting lineup. The loser of this clash will all but bow out of the playoff race, as they won’t be able to get to 16 points.

Match Details
Match: Chennai Super Kings vs Sunrisers Hyderabad, Match 43, IPL 2025 Date: Friday, April 25, 2025 Time: 7:30 PM IST Venue: MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai Broadcast: Star Sports Network (TV) and JioHotstar (Streaming)CSK vs SRH Match Preview
Chennai and Hyderabad enter this contest on the back of disappointing campaigns. CSK, with a net run rate of -1.392, have struggled to find consistency. They suffered a nine-wicket thrashing against arch-rivals Mumbai Indians in their last match. Their batting has lacked intent in the middle overs, and injuries have disrupted their combinations. However, the spin trio of Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, and Noor Ahmad could exploit Chepauk’s conditions. CSK’s recent home form has been poor, losing three of four matches at Chepauk. That could add additional pressure to perform in front of their loyal “Yellow Army”.
SRH, ninth in the standings, have failed to capitalise on their explosive batting potential. Ishan Kishan and Abhishek Sharma have both scored a century each, but as a unit, SRH have not been able to perform to expectations. SRH have never beaten CSK at Chepauk, making this an uphill battle. However, their top order—Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Heinrich Klaasen—has the firepower to challenge CSK’s spinners if they adapt to the slow surface.
Both teams are at a critical juncture, with the next few matches likely to define their season. CSK will aim to leverage their spin dominance and home crowd, while SRH must address their bowling woes and find a way to counter Chepauk’s challenges. Expect a tactical battle where patience and adaptability will be key.
MA Chidambaram Stadium Pitch Report
The MA Chidambaram Stadium pitch is renowned for assisting spinners, especially as the match progresses. The surface tends to slow down, offering grip and turn, which makes stroke-making difficult. Fast bowlers may find some bounce early on, but spinners are likely to dominate. Dew could play a role in the second innings, potentially aiding the chasing team. A score above 160 is considered competitive, with the average first-innings total at Chepauk around 164 in the IPL. Captains might prefer to bat first to set a defendable total, given the increasing difficulty of batting in the second innings.
