IPL 2025 CSK vs DC Playing 11
CSK scoring at 7.44 in the PowerPlay across their first three games is the lowest among all teams in IPL 2025 and well below the overall average this season – 9.58. CSK have won each of their last seven matches against Delhi Capitals at Chepauk.
Notably, this is only the fifth time Delhi Capitals have managed to win their first two games of the season.
In CSK vs DC match today, Delhi Capitals won the toss and opted to bat first.
Winning the toss, DC captain Axar Patel said, “We are going to bat first. Feels like there’ll be help for the bowlers. Expect it to get slower as the game progresses. In our team, we have a few players who have captained other franchises and that helps me a lot. Same combination. Faf is not fit for this game, Sameer Rizvi is playing“.
While CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad said, “We were looking to bat as well. Looks a bit dry. It’s a bit cloudy, won’t change much. You always want momentum in T20 cricket. Overall, the chat has been positive. Fielding is something which we can improve day by day. We want to be proactive. Elbow is good. Conway comes in for Overton. Mukesh comes in from Tripathi“.
