CSK vs PBKS Live: Pitch report -

We are just two minutes away from the toss. Have a look at pitch report by then -

"It's very hot. 68 meter boundary on one side, 65 meters on the other. Straight boundary is 80 meters. This wicket has been used during this tournament already, and in that game the KKR spinners wreaked havoc. There's not a blade of grass on the pitch. It's very very dry. There's a lot of cracking as well. As the new ball starts to wear off, it's going to spin. What does that mean for a batter? You've got to make the majority of runs when the ball is harder and skidding on. Spoke to the curator, he doesn't expect it to be as dewy as it was in the previous game because of the breeze coming in," said Graeme Swann and Aaron Finch about the surface on offer tonight.

CSK vs PBKS Live: Harbhajan Singh's massive verdict!

The official broadcaster for IPL 2025 showed in its predictor that the chances of Chennai Super Kings making to the playoffs this season is 0.24 per cent. Commenting on it, former India player Harbhajan Singh, who has also played for the franchise in the past, said that the side has "0.00 per cent" chance.

CSK vs PBKS Live: Dhoni eyes big feat!

MS Dhoni is only four sixes away from the milestone of 350 sixes in T20 cricket. Only Rohit Sharma (542), Virat Kohli (429) and Suryakumar Yadav (365) are the Indian players to have crossed the milestone. Overall, Chris Gayle of West Indies tops the list with 1056 T20 sixes.

In case you missed it -
