CSK vs KKR Dream11 Prediction IPL 2025: Match 25 of the Indian Premier League 2025 will be between two IPL giants that are not having the best season so far.
The Chennai Super Kings have had a horrid start to IPL 2025. Having played five matches this season so far, they have lost four four in a row. It started well, with a solid win over arch-rivals the Mumbai Indians. But then, CSK first lost to RCB for the first time in Chennai since 2008, then they lost to DC at home for the first time since 2010. In between these two games came a defeat to RR. Now, most recently, they have been beaten by the PBKS. With one win and two points, coupled with a poor net run rate, the Super Kings are ninth on the points table.
As for the Kolkata Knight Riders, the defending champions kicked off IPL 2025 with a loss to RCB at home, which was followed by a win against RR. Then they lost massively to MI before handily beating SRH. Most recently, KKR lost a high-scoring thriller against LSG. This topsy-turvy season so far has yielded two wins and three losses for the Knight Riders. With four points in five games and a negative net run rate, they are sixth on the points table.

While big runs have been scored here in the past, this is one of the most controlled surfaces in this league which has retained its historic properties.

CSK vs KKR Todays Match Prediction: 3 Players To Watch Out For
The 3 players to watch out for in the CSK vs KKR Dream11 Prediction IPL 2025 are:
- Kolkata Knight Riders bowler Varun Chakravarthy will be playing this game in front of his hometown of Chennai. The mystery spinner came into this season as the most in-form bowler in the world after a stellar ICC Champions Trophy 2025. And while he has had a few games, he has not rocked the league like he was expected to. Playing on a spinning track in front of his own people might help.
- Chennai Super Kings wicketkeeper/batter MS Dhoni has been criticised a lot this season for coming out to bat late and not finishing matches for his team. But despite his age, it is mostly the fault of the upper batting order for leaving calculations beyond most batters for him towards the end. In recent games, Dhoni has looked in fine touch and in one of the matches this season, he will seal the deal in vintage Dhoni style.
- Kolkata Knight Riders batter Rinku Singh finally seems to have found some form in IPL 2025. After struggling the whole of last season, he was not getting chances this year. And now, in the last two games, he seems to have found his rhythm. In fact, many attribute KKR’s most recent loss against LSG to Rinku being sent too late out to bat.
