MA Chidambaram Stadium is all set to host the CSK vs KKR IPL 2025 match on Friday, April 11. The match starts at 7.30 pm IST. Both teams are in a must-win situation heading into this game.
CSK has lost four consecutive games. KKR, on the other hand, lost to LSG by just four runs in their last game after the match saw almost 500 runs being scored.
CSK will be led by MS Dhoni for the remainder of the season with Ruturaj Gaikwad ruled out due to injury. Ajinkya Rahane will continue to lead KKR. The Knight Riders have not yet won back-to-back games. They just lost three games in their overall season last year. In 2025, they have already lost three games in the first half of the tournament. Thus, this is a crucial match for both teams with two points up for grabs.

CSK vs KKR Pitch Report at Chepauk
The pitch at the Chepauk stadium has always been a spin-friendly wicket. So far, the venue has hosted three games. CSK won the first game against MI, chasing 155 runs to win. Against RCB and DC, they lost their games chasing. Thus, this is a very good indication that chasing is a tough gig at the Chepauk. Ideally, the captain who wins the toss should look to bat first and defend the total. Spinners will have a bigger role to play than the pacers. How much impact the dew will have will be an interesting observation.
