PBKS vs CHE: Another game and another defeat for the five-time champion Chennai Super Kings in the TATA IPL 2025. They have now suffered a fourth consecutive defeat in the tournament as Punjab Kings beat them by 18 runs in the 22nd game of the tournament at Maharaja Yadavindra International Stadium in Chandigarh.
It was another high-scoring clash. Shreyas Iyer won the toss and elected to bat first. PBKS had a poor start, losing two wickets within 3 overs. But the 24-year-old Priyansh Arya kept taking risks and went on to score a 19-ball fifty. PBKS were losing wickets at the other end and were reduced to 83/5 in 8 overs.
That was the time when Priyansh went into the final gear and registered a 39-ball ton in his fourth IPL game. He slammed the fastest IPL ton by an uncapped Indian batter and scored 103 off 42 balls. Once he got out, Shashank Singh (52* off 36) and Marco Jansen (34* off 19) took PBKS to a massive score of 219/6 in the first innings.
CSK also had a good opening stand of 61 runs, but they lost two wickets for one run. Devon Conway (69 off 49) and Shivam Dubey (42 off 27) kept CSK in the hunt with an 89-run stand in 8.3 overs. But once that partnership was broken, CSK lost the plot. MS Dhoni looked good for his 12-ball 27, but CSK only reached 201/5, losing by 18 runs. It was third win for PBKS this season.
Let’s take a look at the award winners of this nail-biting match.
