PBKS Win by Four Wickets | CSK vs PBKS Highlights of IPL 2025: Shreyas Iyer, Yuzvendra Chahal Help Visitors Scalp Clinical Victory

A little bit of artificial drama in the end but finally Punjab Kings go over the finishing line. CSK will look back at that Yuzvendra Chahal's over and the four balls they missed out on in the last over. Punjab Kings sealed the chase through Shreyas Iyer and Shashank Singh much earlier but they panicked a little with a few losses of wicket and had to wait till the last over to go over the finishing line. PBKS will be happy as the play-off race has been very close this time and it has been difficult to take a lead. Two wins in the next four games can seal the playoff berth for them. CSK's play-off chances end here. 

Two overs and things are kind of finished here. Punjab Kings have picked up two big overs and controlled the chase in their favour. Both Shashank Singh and Shreyas Iyer have landed some big shots and they are looking to finish the game quickly and get a net run rate boost here. CSK are just fading away. Sums up the season for them. 

Fifty for Shreyas Iyer and he is back to runs. Had a rough patch in the middle after starting well during the home games but with conditions and the opposition bowling attack in his favour, he has done the needful. He has things in control and also picked up the ante at the right time to keep ticking with the asking rate. Completes his half-century on the way. 

Out! Finaly a breakthrough for Chennai Super Kings. Matheesha Pathirana just dropped Prabhsimran Singh but the opener ended up giving another chance in the same over, which gets taken at the deep by Dewald Brevis. Big wickets in the context of the game although CSK would want more. Prabhsimran c Brevis b Noor Ahmad 54(36).

Despite some chaotic action in the middle, Prabhsimran Singh and Shreyas Iyer have dealt with the middle over spin pretty well. They have got regular boundaries, keeping the asking rate under check. The partnership has also grown giving a good base for the PBKS finishers to finish. CSK will want wickets here. 

Out! Big wicket in the context of the game. Centurion of the last PBKS vs CSK meet, Priyansh Arya departs after giving a good start. Khaleel Ahmed bowls a sharp bounce and Arya gets a faint nick on it. MS Dhoni takes a very good catch in the end. CSK will want more wickets here. Priyansh Arya c Dhoni b Khaleel Ahmed 23(15).

A chaotic collapse from Chennai Super Kings in the end. MS Dhoni got dismissed by Yuzvendra Chahal and then CSK got absolutely nowhere. Deepak Hooda, Anshul Kamboj, Noor Ahmad and Shivam Dube fell one after another and in the end, CSK couldn't face five deliveries of the last over. They will think they have missed out on runs while PBKS will be happy after making a comeback following the innings from Sam Curran earlier. 

Out! Hat-Trick! Yuzvendra Chahal's second of his IPL career. He brings out his trademark celebration. Came on to bowl the difficult over in the death. Got hit for six by MS Dhoni but them dismissed him and later Deepak Hooda, Anshul Kamboj and Noor Ahmad to complete his hat-trick. Big moment in the game. Hooda c Priyansh Arya b Chahal 2(2), Anshul Kamboj b Chahal 0(1) and Noor Ahmad c Marco Jansen b Chahal 0(1).

Out! Sam Curran departs. Played a great hand and really helped a struggling CSK batting lineup. Scored the bulk of the runs, maintained the scoring rate and helped them get to a position where they can post a really good total. Marco Jansen caught him off guard by a sharp bouncer where he got a tickle while trying to duck it last second. Sam Curran c Josh Inglis b Marco Jansen 88(47).

Fifty! Sam Curran has been backed by CSK at number three and he has delivered. Solid batting so far and has just dominated spin and picked up gaps against pace. He will want to take CSK to a safe score and give some real hard time to PBKS. On the way, he completes his half-century.
