Catch the LIVE score and updates from the Chennai Super Kings Vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, Indian Premier League 2025 match, taking place at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, right here
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) captain Rajat Patidar is playing a gem of a knock here. He is 36(23 balls) and another few big shots could hand his team a big total come at the end of their first innings. However, there’s still a lot of batting to come with the likes of Jitesh Sharma and Tim David waiting in the wings.
Score after 15 overs
RCB 138/3
As when you were thinking that former captain Virat Kohli was getting in the groove, the star batter was sent back off Noor Ahmad’s bowling. The Afghanistan spinner entices Kohli to bring out the slog sweep, and the former RCB captain picks out the fielder at deep midwicket.
Virat Kohli and skipper Rajat Patidar have decided to go after the CSK bowlers with Patidar being dropped by Deepak Hooda off Ravindra Jadeja’s bowling. Have Chennai Super Kings made a mistake in dropping Patidar’s wicket?
Score after 12 overs
RCB 116/2
Ouch! Matheesha Pathirana bowls a short delivery to Virat Kohli but the latter does not judge it that well and ends up hitting his helmet. Out comes the physio and we have a concussion break.
A brief cameo of Devdutt Padikkal 27(14) has come to an end for the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) as the southpaw was sent back by Ravi Ashwin, caught by CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad.
Score after 9 overs
RCB 83/2
Virat Kohli, who has had a quiet start, is joined at the crease by Devdutt Padikkal as RCB look to get back on track after the fall of Phil Salt. Virat Is 11(15) and will depend on him to steady the RCB ship at the Chepauk.
Phil Salt started off well but was dismissed on 32(16) by Afghani spinner Noor Ahmad after giving his side a fast start. He was stumped by MS Dhoni as RCB lost their first wicket on the evening.
Score after 6 overs
RCB 56/1
Phil Salt has started off on a blistering note for RCB as the men from Bengaluru have started off well despite Virat Kohli being in the quiet zone. Salt has five fours and one maximum.
RCB openers Phil Salt and Virat Kohli are at the crease and CSK bowler Khaleel Ahmed has the new ball. All set to go for the action.
Rajat Patidar: We had decided to bowl first. It will not make much difference, the surface looks hard, we will try to put up a total and keep them under pressure. The boys did well in the last game. We have to be at our best in every game and we will try to do that today also. The bowling unit after 13 overs.. the way they came back was amazing to see, the intent shown by the batting side was good. It is one of the biggest games in the league because of the fans it makes it fun and exciting. One change – Bhuvi comes in for Rasikh.
Ruturaj Gaikwad: We are going to bowl first. I think it will play slightly better than the last game. So far there hasn’t been any dew, we don’t know when the dew will arrive and it is not in our control. There are areas; we were sitting behind in the field and would like to be more aggressive, batting wise we can be more clinical. We have just got one change – Pathirana comes back for Ellis.

Chennai Super Kings have won the toss and elected to bowl in match 8 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match.
With both teams in top form, the conditions in Chennai could play a decisive role. The Chepauk pitch is traditionally known to assist spinners, and as the game progresses, it tends to slow down significantly, making batting increasingly difficult in the second innings. CSK have historically enjoyed success against RCB at this venue, owing to their strong spin attack and an impressive home record.
As the two powerhouses of the league collide, fans can expect a riveting battle between RCB’s aggressive batting lineup and CSK’s crafty spin attack. With the weather forecast indicating clear skies and no rain interruptions, the stage is perfectly set for an electrifying contest in Chennai. As per AccuWeather, the temperature is likely to be around 30-37 degrees Celsius.

Seems like Ambati Rayudu isn’t a fan of those frenzy folks who cheer loudly for MSD at the Chepauk. This comes after few fans of Chennai Super Kings were furious at Rachin Ravindra despite his unbeaten half-century that led the team to a victory over Mumbai Indians in their IPL 2025 opener. The reason: “He did he not let MS Dhoni hit the winning runs?”
“It is quite strange, and I don’t think it actually serves the game well. It is quite daunting if you’re a newcomer. It’s quite loud. The support is phenomenal. But, as you go on and play, then you realise they are MS Dhoni fans before they are CSK fans. It is quite evident, and rightly so, because that’s the way the team has been set up and built over the years,” Rayudu was quoted in ESPNCricinfo.
Chennai Super Kings Squad: Rachin Ravindra, Ruturaj Gaikwad(c), Rahul Tripathi, Deepak Hooda, Shivam Dube, Sam Curran, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni(w), Ravichandran Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, Nathan Ellis, Khaleel Ahmed, Vijay Shankar, Jamie Overton, Shreyas Gopal, Devon Conway, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Mukesh Choudhary, Anshul Kamboj, Matheesha Pathirana, Gurjapneet Singh, Shaik Rasheed, Ramakrishna Ghosh, Andre Siddarth C, Vansh Bedi
Royal Challengers Bengaluru Squad: Philip Salt, Virat Kohli, Devdutt Padikkal, Rajat Patidar(c), Liam Livingstone, Jitesh Sharma(w), Tim David, Krunal Pandya, Rasikh Dar Salam, Suyash Sharma, Josh Hazlewood, Yash Dayal, Abhinandan Singh, Manoj Bhandage, Romario Shepherd, Swapnil Singh, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Lungi Ngidi, Nuwan Thushara, Jacob Bethell, Mohit Rathee, Swastik Chikara
