It’s do-or-die for Chennai, but the door’s already slammed shut.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru will host Chennai Super Kings in the 52nd match of IPL 2025 on May 3 at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium. RCB have been ruthless this season and currently sit at the top of the points table with 14 points from 10 games.
The home crowd will expect nothing less than another clinical performance as they look to tighten their grip on a playoff berth.
CSK, meanwhile, are out of the race. Their four-wicket loss to Punjab Kings sealed the deal—eight defeats from 10 matches, and they’ve become the first side to officially crash out of the tournament. A bitter pill for the five-time champions, who now head into Bengaluru with nothing but pride on the line.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, start times, and the latest lineup news.
