**Chennai, India:** The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) suffered a humiliating 8-wicket defeat against the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) at Chepauk in IPL 2025, marking their third consecutive home loss. The defeat casts a shadow over MS Dhoni’s captaincy, following disappointing performances under previous captain Ruturaj Gaikwad.
CSK’s batting crumbled spectacularly, managing a paltry 103 runs – their lowest ever total at Chepauk. Shivam Dube’s 31 and Vijay Shankar’s 29 were the only notable contributions, while Dhoni himself was dismissed for just 1 run. This performance represents a historic low for the team at their home ground.
In contrast, KKR’s chase was a comfortable one, spearheaded by Sunil Narine’s explosive 44 runs and a three-wicket haul, earning him the Player of the Match award. The one-sided victory underscores CSK’s current struggles and raises serious concerns about their performance in the ongoing IPL season. The team’s poor form continues to disappoint fans and leaves their campaign in jeopardy.
