CSK`s MS Dhoni returned as captain in a crucial IPL match against KKR, while KL Rahul excelled for Delhi Capitals.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) faced Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in a crucial IPL 2025 clash on April 11. With Ruturaj Gaikwad sidelined due to injury, MS Dhoni stepped back into the captaincy role for CSK. The match was pivotal for both teams, as CSK struggled with four losses in five matches, while KKR, the defending champions, managed only two wins.

KKR won the toss and opted to bowl first, a decision influenced by the Chepauk pitch, which was expected to benefit their spinners, Sunil Narine and Varun Chakaravarthy. CSK`s batting lineup has shown inconsistency this season, and under Dhoni`s leadership, they were eager to turn their fortunes around.

In another match, KL Rahul`s stellar performance for Delhi Capitals against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, scoring 93 off 53 balls, highlighted the ongoing excitement of the IPL. RCB expressed concerns about the home pitch conditions, which they felt hampered their batting efforts. As the IPL 2025 season progresses, teams are keen to improve their standings and make a mark in this competitive tournament. For more cricket updates, visit cricket and cricket.
