CSK And SRH ends IPL 2025 with big wins

CSK and SRH failed to make it to the knockout stage in IPL 2025, but both teams ended their season on a high. These two teams earned big-margin wins over their opponents in the final group game.

CSK played against the top of the table team, Gujarat Titans, in the afternoon game. Later, SRH went up against KKR in the evening game. Gujarat was the only team among these four that made it to the last four.

Mahendra Singh Dhoni led CSK for the final time in his career. This might have been his last game for the team in yellow. His team batted first and posted a huge total on the board. Ayush Mhatre started the innings well. He smashed 28 runs in the second over to give his side a fast start. His opening partner, Devon Conway, went to hit a half-century.

Urvil Patel came down to play a quickfire innings of 37 in 19 balls. Dewald Brevis stole the show towards the end with a 57-run knock in just 23 balls.

Buttler and Rutherford followed him, leaving Gujarat in a spot of bother.

Noor Ahmed and Anshul Kamboj took three wickets each and helped CSK to an 83-run win. The team in yellow ended their season at the bottom of the table. GT won’t be ending their campaign at the top.

Travis Head scored 76 runs, but Klaasen stole the show with his 105-run knock in just 39 balls. There were contributions from Abhishek and Kishan. This whole innings comprised 22 fours and 19 sixes.
