The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025's Match No. 17 will pit the Delhi Capitals (DC) against the Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The game will take place on April 5 at Chennai's MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chepauk. The opening ball is scheduled to be bowled at 3:30 PM IST. The campaign started poorly for the Men in Yellow, who won one game and lost two. They were defeated by the Rajasthan Royals by six runs at Guwahati in their last match. Noor Ahmad, Ravindra Jadeja, and Matheesha Pathirana of CSK bowled first and combined for five for 66 in ten overs. Others, however, were pricey.
With 63 off 44 deliveries, captain Ruturaj Gaikwad kept them in the game as they chased 183. Even though they had too much work remaining for the last two overs, Ravindra Jadeja went on to knock 32 off 22. Despite winning their first two games, the Delhi Capitals have had a different start to the season. In their last match, Sunrisers Hyderabad lost by seven wickets to the team captained by Axar Patel. With a five-wicket haul, Mitchell Starc swept through the opposition batting order. Additionally, Kuldeep Yadav held SRH to 166 after taking three wickets for 22 in four overs. They had a strong start thanks to an 81-run partnership from the DC openers. With four overs remaining, they chased down the mark with a fifty off 27 deliveries from Faf du Plessis and a thirty-four* off 18 from Abishek Porel.
