CSK vs DC Live Updates: What happened to Gaikwad?

Ruturaj Gaikwad is currently dealing with an elbow injury sustained in the recent match against Rajasthan Royals, making him doubtful for this afternoon clash. This situation sets the stage for CSK's five-time IPL champion, Dhoni, to step in and take charge for the Yellow Army. 

CSK vs DC Live Updates: Team News!!!!

Chennai Super Kings: Ruturaj Gaikwad, who took a blow to his elbow in the last game against Rajasthan Royals, is a doubtful starter for the match against Delhi Capitals at home. Michael Hussey hinted that if Gaikwad fails to recover in time, a young wicketkeeper could step in, referring to MS Dhoni.

Delhi Capitals: T Natarajan has recovered from his shoulder injury. However, Kuldeep Yadav, on the eve of the game, suggested that the team doesn't want to rush him in and he is unlikely to feature in the game against CSK.

CSK vs DC Live Updates: Come On CSK!!!! 

CSK vs DC Live Updates: Pitch & Weather Report! ☁️☀️🌧️

The pitch at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai won't likely offer significant seam movement to the fast bowlers. However, the swing bowlers could get the new ball move a little bit in the air. 

As it's an afternoon game, the pitch could be slightly on the drier side, with the sun beating down. Also, considering the spinners have bagged more than 50 per cent of the total wickets in two matches at this venue, expect the likes of Kuldeep Yadav and Noor Ahmad to play a significant role in this match.

CSK vs DC Score Update: Match Prediction?? 🥇

Chennai Super Kings hold a significant advantage over Delhi Capitals based on comprehensive analysis of historical performances at MA Chidambaram Stadium and key player matchups.

CSK's exceptional record at Chepauk (10 wins in 14 matches) combined with their ability to exploit home conditions gives them a clear edge. Ruturaj Gaikwad's dominance against DC's spin option Kuldeep Yadav (254.55 strike rate) could prove decisive in setting a competitive total........

CSK vs DC Score Update: Fantasy Predictions! 🔥 

Chennai Super Kings

Ruturaj Gaikwad

IPL 2025 Form: 116 Runs in 3 Matches

 The CSK skipper is one of the two batters in consistent form for the Chennai Super Kings. Ruturaj Gaikwad has scored two half-centuries already and is in good form. He will be a hot pick for this match.

Rachin Ravindra

IPL 2025 Form: 106 Runs in 3 Matches

The Kiwi opener has been the other batter who has shown a bit of resistance with the bat for CSK. Rachin Ravindra made a good start to the tournament and would be a prime pick for the fantasy contests of this match.

Noor Ahmad

IPL 2025 Form: 9 Wickets in 3 Matches

 The Afghan spinner has been one of the biggest trump cards for the Chennai Super Kings in the tournament. Noor Ahmad is going through great period as far as picking up wickets is concerned. He will be one of the hot picks for the game.

CSK vs DC Live: Preview Time! 📖

Ruturaj Gaikwad and his men kicked off their IPL 2025 campaign on a high by outgunning the mighty Mumbai Indians. But since then, the Super Kings have been caught in a storm, suffering back-to-back defeats . With pressure mounting and critics sharpening their knives, CSK will be itching to bounce back in front of their home crowd.

On the other hand, Delhi Capitals have hit the ground running. Under the leadership of Axar Patel, DC have made a strong statement this season, steamrolling Lucknow Super Giants in their opener and following it up with a clinical seven-wicket win over Sunrisers Hyderabad. With two wins in their pocket, they will be eyeing a hat-trick.
