IPL 2025: Ambati Rayudu Gives Up On CSK, Drops Blunt "Even MS Dhoni" Remark

Former India batter Ambati Rayudu feels that Chennai Super Kings have no chance to make a comeback in the IPL 2025 following their loss against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium on Sunday. It was CSK's sixth loss of the season in eight games as the five-time champions have been placed at the bottom of the points table. Once again, CSK failed to get a positive start from their openers, but debutant Ayush Mhatre showed some promise with a knock of 32 in 15 balls with the help of two sixes and four fours before Ravindra Jadeja and Shivam Dube struck half-centuries to take the side to 176/5 in 20 overs after being asked to bat first.

Gujarat Titans Star's Brutal Jibe At Commentators Over Question On Teammate Rashid Khan's Form

Gujarat Titans (GT) star R Sai Kishore has backed his spin-twin Rashid Khan to regain his form as the Indian Premier League (IPL) enters it business end. With just six wickets in eight matches, Rashid is in the middle of his worst IPL season. However, the former SunRisers Hyderabad (SRH) spinner was one of the standout performers as GT beat the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Monday. Rashid returned with figures of 2/25, his best of the season so far, helping GT restrict KKR to 159/8 in pursuit of 199 at the Eden Gardens.

'KKR Retained Venkatesh Iyer Over Shubman Gill In 2021': Rs 23.75 Crore Star Bashed On Social Media

Defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders have now lost five out of eight matches in the IPL 2025 after their latest setback against Gujarat Titans. Chasing 199, the intent was clearly missing from majority of their batters. Firstly, Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) openers continued their disappointing run as they delivered yet another shambolic display. During the run-chase of 199 runs against GT, opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who was playing in place of Quinton de Kock, could score only one run before he was cleaned up by Mohammed Siraj. On the other hand, Sunil Narine was caught by Rahul Tewatia on a Rashid Khan delivery for just 17 in 13 balls, with two fours and a six.

The BCCI on Monday retained megastars Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli in the top bracket of its annual players contract list, less than 24 hours after they played sublime knocks to win IPL games for their respective franchises. The out-of-favour duo of Shreyas Iyer and Ishan Kishan also returned to the fold in lower brackets in a 34-strong list of centrally-contracted players, which also includes pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja in the highest-paid A+ category. Iyer and keeper-batter Ishan Kishan were dropped from the list last year for allegedly ignoring domestic cricket.

One of the icons of the game, Rohit Sharma, finally showed his true capability with the bat, smashing a 45-ball 76 for Mumbai Indians against Chennai Super Kings to help the team win three games on the trot.
