Can CSK still qualify for playoffs in IPL 2025?
Chennai Super Kings are at the cusp of losing out on the playoff berth in Indian Premier League 2025, after their recent loss against Sunrisers Hyderabad they find themselves at the bottom of the points table. Let’s take a look at can CSK still qualify for playoffs in IPL 2025.
What’s happening with CSK?
Chennai Super Kings have faced consistent struggles throughout IPL 2025, particularly with their batting. Frequent top-order collapses and a fragile middle order have left the team unable to post competitive totals. Despite changes to the lineup, including bringing in Dewald Brevis, CSK has failed to find winning momentum. Their inability to handle spin and capitalize on favorable pitch conditions has added to their woes.
Even when bowlers perform well, the lack of support from the batters has cost them matches. Captain MS Dhoni admitted that several players are underperforming at once, making it hard to maintain a stable playing XI. The team’s failure to assess conditions properly and adapt during games has left their campaign off track. With playoff hopes dimming, CSK’s struggle to find form and consistency continues to be their biggest challenge this season.
Will CSK still qualify for playoffs in IPL 2025?
Chennai Super Kings playoff hopes are hanging by a thread after suffering seven defeats in their first nine matches of IPL 2025. To stay in the hunt, CSK must win all their remaining five games, taking their tally to 14 points. However, even a perfect finish may not be enough, as their poor Net Run Rate could work against them.
Big-margin wins in their coming matches and favorable outcomes in other matches are essential. Teams like Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants must also lose key games. Another loss would mathematically eliminate CSK, leaving them with no room for error in their final stretch. Although this might seem impossible, there are viable chances there are chances they can get through for the playoff stage.
