CSK 80/5 (12)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

CSK 74/4 (10.3)

CSK vs DC Live: Catch dropped!

Vipraj Nigam nearly had the wicket of Vijay Shankar but Kuldeep Yadav dropped the catch at backward square leg. He was running back as the ball went high in the air but failed to complete the catch. 10 runs came off the over and a wicket. 

CSK 69/4 (10)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

CSK vs DC Live: Time-out!

Only seven runs came off Kuldeep Yadav’s first over. Shivam Dube tried to play big shots in the over but failed to time it properly. Chennai Super Kings need 125 runs in 66 balls. The asking rate is over 11 for them now. It seems the pitch has slowed down a bit with spinners getting more aid.

CSK 59/3 (9)

CSK vs DC Live: Economical over!

Mitchell Starc didn’t get any wicket in the over but he conceded just three runs in it, putting more pressure on CSK. Chennai Super Kings need 136 runs in 78 balls. The asking rate has gone over 10 for them now with no set batter at the crease. This is an extremely tough chase for CSK now.

CSK 49/3 (7)

CSK vs DC Live: FOUR!

This is a poor delivery from Vipraj Nigam to a new batter Shivam Dube and the latter has taken good advantage of it. Dube slammed it through the sweeper cover for a four. A single and a dot ball followed it. 10 runs came off the over.

CSK 46/3 (6)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

More trouble for Chennai Super Kings! Devon Conway is out for 13 off 14 balls. He top-edged a Vipraj Nigam delivery and Axar Patel took the catch comfortably inside the ring around the short mid-on region. CSK are three down.

CSK 41/3 (5.3)

CSK vs DC Live: Delhi Capitals on top!

Delhi Capitals have controlled this innings so far. Their fast bowlers Mukesh Kumar and Mitchell Starc have been right on the money. Despite an 11-run over from Mohit Sharma, the asking rate has gone to 9.87 for CSK. Chennai Super Kings need 148 runs in 90 balls. 

CSK 36/2 (5)

CSK vs DC Live: Massive blunder from DC!

On fifth ball of the 3rd over, a fuller ball from Mitchell Starc hit Vijay Shankar on the front foot. There was an appeal for an LBW but DC were not that confident with it. As a result, they didn’t review it. Later, replays revealed that the ball hit Shankar’s toe and he was plumb.

CSK vs DC Live: Brilliant bowling!

Mitchell Starc is breathing fire! He conceded just five runs in the over and picked the wicket of CSK captain Gaikwad in it. Chennai Super Kings need 164 runs in 102 balls. The asking rate is 9.65 for them. They need to play the remaining three overs of powerplay well.

CSK 20/2 (3)

CSK vs DC Live: WICKET!

Massive blow for CSK! Mitchell Starc has dismissed Ruturaj Gaikwad and CSK are in some real trouble now. They are two down inside three overs.

CSK 20/2 (2.3)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

Rachin Ravindra is OUT! Mukesh Kumar provides Delhi Capitals the first wicket. Ravindra edged the ball into the hands of Mukesh, who took a good catch on the follow through. CSK are one down in the second over and inside walks CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad to bat at number 3. 

CSK 14/1 (1.5)

CSK vs DC Live: Poor ball!

That was a poor start from Mitchell Starc! He conceded 10 runs in the first over. On the final delivery, Starc sprayed it on the legs of Devon Conway. The ball hit the batter’s pad and ran away to the fine leg fence for a four.

CSK 10/0 (1)

CSK vs DC Live: Chase begins!

Mitchell Starc starts with a dot delivery to Rachin Ravindra outside off stump. Devon Conway is at the other end.

CSK vs DC Live: Good comeback from CSK!

End of 20 overs and DC have posted 183 for 6. At one point, they were looking to score something close to 200 but CSK bounced back beautifully and a lot of credit goes to Matheesha Pathirana for that. The pacer conceded just 13 runs in his last two overs with one wicket in it.

DC 183/6 (20)

CSK vs DC Live: Run-out!

Ashutosh Sharma is run-out! He mistimed the Prathirana delivery on the leg side and tried to take a couple but got run out while coming for the second run. Ravindra Jadeja fielded the ball at square leg and fired in a superb throw and MS Dhoni whipped off the bails.

DC 180/6 (19.3)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

KL Rahul is gone!

DC 179/5 (19.2)

CSK vs DC Live: Catch dropped!

18.3 – Mukesh Choudhary has dropped the catch of KL Rahul. How big a blunder this is going to be for CSK? KL Rahul hit it high in the air but Mukesh failed to take the catch. The ball popped out of his hands. MS Dhoni gave a stare to the bowler after the dropped catch. 

CSK vs DC Live: Superb bowling!

This was a really good over from Matheesha Pathirana. Just six singles came off it, no boundary. He mixed his pace really well and kept both KL Rahul and Tristan Stubbs guessing. Pathirana has one more over left and he will bowl the final one of the innings. Mukesh Choudhary is set to bowl the 4th over.

DC 161/4 (18)

CSK vs DC Live: Brilliant spell!

Khaleel Ahmed ends his brilliant spell with figures of 2 for 25 in four overs. He looked in control from the first over itself and managed to maintain it throughout his bowling. Matheesha Pathirana is set to bowl the 18th over.

DC 155/4 (17)

CSK vs DC Live: WICKET!

Khaleel Ahmed strikes! He provided CSK a much-needed breakthrough as the 56-run partnership between KL Rahul and Sameer Rizvi is finally broken. Rizvi departs for 20 off 15 balls. Delhi Capitals are four down vs Chennai Super Kings.

DC 146/4 (16.1)

CSK vs DC Live: SIX!

Sameer Rizvi has slammed Noor Ahmad’s final delivery over the long-on for a biggie. This turned out to be an expensive over from the star CSK spinner. A total of 17 runs came off the over. Noor has given away 36 runs in his three overs so far with just one wicket.

DC 138/3 (15)

CSK vs DC Live: FOUR!

14.1 – This is a really good shot from KL Rahul. Noor Ahmad tried to bowl it away from Rahul but the right-handed batter still managed to fetch the fuller delivery from near the tramline and slammed it down the ground for a four.

CSK vs DC Live: Fifty for KL Rahul!

KL Rahul raced to his fifty in 33 balls. He got there with a single. This was an economical over from Matheesha Pathirana as only 8 runs came off it. Rahul could now try to accelerate a bit more as only 6 overs remain in the DC innings.

DC 121/3 (14)

CSK vs DC Live: SIX!

12.2 – Ravindra Jadeja bowled it around good length but KL Rahul jumped out of his crease and slammed it down the ground for a six. This is brilliant batting from the DC opener. He is only two runs away from his fifty.

CSK vs DC Live: FOUR!

A fuller ball from Matheesha Pathirana and outside off stump and KL Rahul has driven it away for a four. With the shot, Rahul moves to 42 off 29 balls. A total of 11 runs came off Pathirana’s first over. This is not what CSK wanted! 

DC 103/3 (12)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

Axar Patel is gone! Noor Ahmad does the trick for CSK with a googly and continues his terrific form in IPL 2025. Axar went for a big hit and missed it completely. He departs for 21 off 14 balls. That is the end of a good cameo from the DC captain.

DC 90/3 (10.4)

CSK vs DC Live: SIX!

KL Rahul finally manages to get a boundary. He had been trying for it, but here he connects it beautifully. The Noor Ahmad delivery was slog-swept over the deep mid-wicket for a biggie. With it, Rahul moves to 35 off 24 balls.

DC 89/2 (10.2)

CSK vs DC Live: FOUR!

Axar Patel gets an outside edge as he tries to cut away the Noor Ahmad delivery. It goes very fine for a four. A dot ball follows and that is the end of the over. Nine runs came off Noor’s first over. Delhi Capitals are placed well as they are scoring at 8.44 per over.

DC 76/2 (9)

CSK vs DC Live: Another good over!

Ravichandran Ashwin has bowled another economical over. He gave only 7 runs in it despite getting hit for a four on the final ball of the over. Noor Ahmad will bowl the 9th over. The Afghan spinner currently holds the Purple Cap with 9 wickets in 3 matches.

DC 67/2 (8)

CSK vs DC Live: SIX!

What a start from Axar Patel! He got an overpitched delivery on the first ball he faced and smacked it down the ground for a six.

DC 60/2 (7)

CSK vs DC Live: OUT!

Abhishek Porel is OUT! Ravindra Jadeja has provided Chennai Super Kings the breakthrough! It was bowled at good length outside off stump and Porel played it into the hands of Pathirana at short third man. Porel departs for 33 off 20 balls.

DC 54/2 (6.5)

CSK vs DC Live: End of powerplay!

Good start from Ravichandran Ashwin! Despite bowling the last over of powerplay, he conceded only 8 runs in it.

DC 51/1 (6)

CSK vs DC Live: 11-run over!

Khaleel Ahmed also went for runs in his third over. KL Rahul slammed him for a six over the long-leg on the second ball and then stole a couple before taking a single. A total of 11 runs came off the over. R Ashwin will bowl the final over of powerplay.

DC 43/1 (5)

CSK vs DC Live: FOUR!

Fuller ball from Mukesh Choudhary and KL Rahul has slammed it down the ground for a four. He takes a single off the very next ball. This is smart batting from the DC opener. This is not a flat deck and anything around 180 could be a really good total it seems. Maybe some more overs could give a better idea of the surface.

DC 31/1 (3.4)

CSK vs DC Live: Good bowling!

Khaleel Ahmed continues to keep it tight from one end. He has bowled a four-run over. No boundary came in it, just four singles. Mukesh Choudhary is back to bowl another over. Can Porel attack him again? Let’s see.

DC 24/1 (3)

CSK vs DC Live: Expensive over!

Poor bowling from Mukesh Choudhary and superb batting from Abishek Porel. Mukesh leaked 19 runs in his first over as Porel slammed him for three fours and one six in it. That will take some pressure off DC, who suffered an early blow.

DC 20/1 (2)

CSK vs DC Live: What an over!

Khaleel Ahmed has started Chennai Super Kings’ bowling with a one-run over that also included the wicket of Jake Fraser-McGurk. It was hit high in the air by the DC opener before R Ashwin ran back from mid-on to take the catch.

DC 1/1 (1)
