The rivalry between the Chennai Super Kings and the Royal Challengers Bengaluru have been one of the most intense ones in IPL history. The intensity of the contest between the two teams was evident during the 53rd match of the IPL 2025.
RCB and CSK were facing off in the latest game of the IPL 2025 at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. It was a nail biter as the game went down to the final moments of the game.
Ravindra Jadeja Played A Brilliant Knock For CSK
Ravindra Jadeja played a brilliant hand for the visiting team and was the architect of constructing the run chase for CSK. During his impactful knock, Jadeja hit a six against Lungi Ngidi that broke records of the tournament.
The six came off the fifth delivery of 17th over. Lungi Ngidi bowled a full toss at the middle and leg stump line. Jadeja spotted the change in the speed and swatted it over the square leg fence for a maximum. The distance of the six was 109 metres, which stands as the longest of this edition of the tournament.
Jadeja went over Heinrich Klaasen, who hit a six of 107 m, which he hit against Mumbai Indians in the tournament.

CSK Lose Despite Jadeja-Mhatre's Heroics
CSK full capitalised on the platform Jadeja and Mhatre provided them and went very close to mammoth target set for them by RCB. However, the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, who have been brilliant in the tournament so far hled their nerves and bailed themselves out of the situation. In the end RCB defended their total by 2 runs.
