IPL 2025: CSK’s predicted playing XI for IPL 2025
Talking about the top order, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Devon Conway can be seen opening for them. Rachin Ravindra may get a chance at number three. This season he included Rahul Tripathi for number four and he can be seen performing well here. After this, Shivam Dubey, Ravindra Jadeja and MS Dhoni can give the finishing touch to the team in the last over.
Talking about bowling, they have two excellent fast bowlers in the form of Mathisa Pathirana and Khaleel Ahmed. In the spin department, they have excellent spinners like Noor Ahmed and Ravi Ashwin. If the team plays at its home ground in Chennai, then it can field with two fast bowlers and three spinners, whereas in away matches this combination can change. There the franchise can make changes in its playing XI considering the conditions.
CSK Probable Playing XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Rachin Ravindra, Rahul Tripathi, Shivam Dubey, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (wk), R Ashwin, Mathisa Pathirana, Khaleel Ahmed, Noor Ahmed.
