IPL 2025: MS Dhoni fails with Bat on Captain Return in CSK Batting Show

Chennai Super Kings’ Batting Wores continued the IPL 2025 when the five -time champions registered their second lowest powerplay in their sixth match against Kolkata Knight. The satisfactory performance came on a significant occasion – the return of Mrs. Dhoni as a captain. CSK managed only 32 runs in powerplay and lost one goal. At the end of the fifth, they crawled at 18 for 1, with a clear lack of intent and self -confidence again visible in their highest order.

Mrs. Dhoni, who returned to lead her side, entered no. This meant the first time Dhoni was released on a single -digit score in the 2025 IPL season. | CSK VS KRKR, IPL 2025 Update |

Finally, CSK was limited to 103 for 9 out of 20 exceeding – their lowest sum at home in IPL history. Before Friday, the lowest CSK in Chepauk in 2019 was 109-VS against the Indians in Mumbai.

To come in PowerPlay only a few minutes after Dhoni urged his team to start the stronger with the bat and the ball. Asked about the persistent CSK fighting in early breaks, it is necessary to emphasize the need for a sharper intention and a better execution – a message that apparently did not get rid of.

Super kings painfully missed Ruturai Gaikwad at the top of the order. His replacement, Rahul Tripathi – who came in 3rd place – could not find any rhythm during the powerplay. Gaikwad was previously expelled from the season with a fracture of the hairline in the right elbow and significantly causes CSK’s already salty set of batting.

Devon Conway and Rachin Ravindra opened shifts with cautious access and managed only 10 runs from the first two breaks. Just when Conway began to look comfortable, Moeen Ali was released. The New Zealand opener tried to sweep, but was imprisoned by his former CSK team in the fourth.

Things disintegrated quickly from there. Rachin Ravindra, who tried to find a form in IPL 2025, was removed in the same shot. In the meantime, Vijay Shankar was handed over to the rescue rope when Krkr dropped him to zero – a retribution that could turn out to be expensive, but eventually changed a little.

CSK could not find the boundary for section 17 supplies during PowerPlay – a narration of statistics that summarized the mood in Chepauk. The home crowd fell silent and let them witness another daunting tab on their part.

30 for 3 against RCB in Chennai
31 for 2 against Krk in Chennai
42 for 1 against RR in Guwahati
46 for 3 against DC in Chennai

On Friday with a bat was nothing right for Super Kings, because they lost eight goals – including the goal of their impact player – without being able to exceed 80 -run.

CSK lasted the border drought, which lasted 49 supplies, bridging over 6 to 16. During this desert section, Shivam Dube, which held the fort at one end, but watched the goals to the other fell in the pile.

Vijay Shankar contributed 29 runs out of 21 balls, but a versatile – which was handed over to two re -re -re -re -re -converted his beginning to meaningful shifts. Rahul Tripathi, who returns to playing XI instead of Ruturaj Gaikwad, looked completely from the species. Maharashtra dough tried to go and drive only 16 runs from 22 supplies.

Ravichandran Ashwin, promoted to No. 6, could only collect one run out of seven vans, while Ravindra Jadeja and Deepak Hood added to suffering. Hood, brought as a player of the impact, was released on the duck and deepened the collapse of the CSK launch.
