IPL 2025 CSK vs KKR Match Prediction: Who will win Today's match? Top Picks to Look Out for, Best Fantasy 11 and more

IPL 2025 CSK vs KKR Match Prediction: Chennai Super Kings, the most ideal franchise in the history of the IPL, as they are the franchise with the greatest fanbase as well as the best record starring in 10 IPL playoffs and finals. 

CSK will play their 6th match of the season against arch-rivals Kolkata Knight Riders, the rivalry began with KKR winning their first title back in 2012 against the Chennai Super Kings which denied them their third consecutive title in the IPL. 

The greatest rivalry intensified over the years, the 2012 IPL final, the return of CSK at Chepauk against the side in IPL 2018, CSK’s stunning resurgence in the IPL 2021 final and lastly some breathtaking player performances from Manvinder Bisla, and Devon Conway to the showman Andre Russell. 

This match will be played at Chepauk with MS Dhoni leading the side for the first time in the 18th edition of the IPL. The Men in Yellow have already lost 4 matches and are looking forward to a strong comeback, while Knight Riders lost their previous game by just 4-runs as they clipped from the edge of a win in a very high-scoring game.

IPL 2025 CSK vs KKR Match Prediction: Who Will Win Today's Match?

The Chennai Super Kings are currently placed in the last position of the IPL points table as they have lost 4 of their 5 games in the season and have managed just one point. 

On the other hand, the Kolkata Knight Riders have performed well on several occasions, however, the defending champions have missed a huge opportunity to secure one of the biggest chases in the history of the IPL in the last game at the Eden Gardens against LSG. 

Likely considering CSK’s bunch of spinners and playing at Chepauk the weakness of the KKR batters to spinners might be exposed. CSK despite their bad form are the likely favourites in the contest. 

IPL 2025: CSK vs KKR Dream11 Prediction: Pitch report and Weather report

The match between Chennai Super Kings and Kolkata Knight Riders is going to be played at the Chidambaram Stadium. This track is known to be one of the few spin-favouring tracks remaining in India, the venue is very average scoring ground. 

Chennai weather does not support very pleasant playing conditions, as the temperature is soaring high most of the time in the year.   

IPL 2025: CSK vs KKR: Top Picks

Ajinkya Rahane - The KKR captain almost revived his career during his playing days in the CSK camp. Rahane has been in good touch with the Kolkata Knight Riders as well dominating in the middle-overs. He will be crucial to handle spin at the Chidambaram Stadium. 

Varun Chakravarthy - KKR’s most effective spinner Varun Chakravarthy will be a highlight in the match at Chepauk, under the spin-friendly tracks. 

Rachin Ravindra - Rachin Ravindra has been CSK’s most inform batter, though he has not been promising in the recent games, the left-hander will be vital for his team alongside opening partner Devon Conway, especially in the absence of Ruturaj Gaikwad. 

Noor Ahmed - Purple cap holder and leading-wicket taker in the IPL, Noor Ahmed can again look to dominate in the tracks of MA. Chidambaram Stadium.
