Chennai Super Kings' Upcoming Matches
The IPL 2025 season is set to resume on May 17, featuring a match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. Unfortunately, the Chennai Super Kings have already been eliminated from playoff contention, leaving them with two remaining matches this season.
Under Dhoni's leadership, CSK will face off against Rajasthan Royals in Delhi on May 20, followed by their final league match against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad on May 25.
With their playoff hopes dashed, coach Fleming will evaluate which overseas players to bring back for the final matches. Players like Noor Ahmad and Matheesha Pathirana are confirmed to be available, while the participation of Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway remains uncertain. As they approach the end of the season, MS Dhoni and his team are determined to secure victories in both matches to finish on a positive note and avoid ending up at the bottom of the standings.
