Chennai Super Kings suffered their sixth defeat in the IPL 2025 season, putting them at the bottom of the points table and on the verge of being eliminated from the playoffs. Former CSK players Suresh Raina and Harbhajan Singh criticized the team’s auction strategy, pointing out that they missed out on talented players like Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer, and KL Rahul. Raina expressed disappointment in CSK’s performance and questioned their decision-making at the auction. Harbhajan agreed, attributing the team’s struggles to the talent scouts and their choices. To keep their playoffs hopes alive, Chennai must win their upcoming matches against Sunrisers Hyderabad and Punjab Kings, and improve their net run rate. The team needs to perform well in their remaining games to secure a spot in the playoffs.
