It turned out to be a Super Sunday for Chennai Super Kings as the five-time champions ended their season with a massive 83-run victory over Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
Former India batter Aakash Chopra has urged the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to trade long-serving all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja, amid his struggles to contribute with both bat and ball this season. The former CSK captain has scored just 280 runs in 13 matches this season, while also claiming just eight wickets in the same duration. Chopra's remarks came after CSK captain MS Dhoni claimed that the franchise is already looking into the future, having failed to qualify for the IPL playoffs in back-to-back seasons.

After Chennai Super Kings (CSK) win over defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), the team's batting coach Michael Hussey hailed youngsters for their positive contribution and fearless intent, saying that their presence has "invigorated everyone", ESPNCricinfo reported.

The highlight of the successful 180 run chase by CSK with a fiery 11-ball 31 run cameo by 26-year-old Urvil Patel on his debut and a 25-ball 52 by a 22-year-old Dewald Brevis, which featured a take down of Vaibhav Arora for 30 runs, with three fours and three sixes.
Kolkata Knight Riders spinner Varun Chakaravarthy has been fined 25 per cent of his match fees and handed one demerit point for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct during the match against Chennai Super Kings. CSK, who are out of the playoffs race, defeated the home team by two wickets at the Eden Gardens on Wednesday to also effectively end Ajinkya Rahane's side's hopes of making the top four.
Kolkata Knight Riders vs Chennai Super Kings LIVE Updates: CSK captain MS Dhoni has worked his magic behind the stumps, as Noor Ahmad took two wickets in one over against KKR in their IPL 2025 clash. KKR have reached 80/3 after 9 overs, with Ajinkya Rahane and Manish Pandey at the crease. Noor took the wickets of Sunil Narine and Angkrish Raghuvanshi in the same over. Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) captain Ajinkya Rahane won the toss and opted to bat against Chennai Super Kings (CSK). KKR's Rs 23.75 crore star Venkatesh Iyer has missed out with an injury. On the other hand, MS Dhoni-led CSK have made several changes, bringing back R Ashwin and handing a debut to uncapped opener Urvil Patel. It is a virtual must-win scenario for KKR to qualify for the playoffs, while CSK are already eliminated. (Live Scorecard)
Former Indian cricket team batter Virender Sehwag blamed Chennai Super Kings star Dewald Brevis for his controversial dismissal during the IPL 2025 encounter against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. Brevis was given out LBW off the bowling of Lungi Ngidi but the South Africa international was not convinced with the decision. Brevis had a conversation with Ravindra Jadeja and by the time he went for the review, the allotted 15 seconds had run out and the on-field umpires informed him of the circumstances. It led to a massive row with Jadeja having an argument with the umpires.
Chennai Super Kings head coach Stephen Fleming admitted that a missed review chance involving Dewald Brevis proved to be a turning point in the match as his side slumped to a narrow two-run loss against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. A huge DRS controversy took place in the final overs of CSK's run-chase of RCB after Dewald Brevis ran out of time to review an LBW call. The incident occurred on the third ball of the 17th over during CSK's chase of 214. Ngidi bowled a knee-high full toss that hit Brevis on the pad. The umpire quickly gave it out. As per the rules, the ball became dead at that point, and the 15-second timer kicked off.
