Chennai Super Kings (Csk) will face Delhi Capitals (DC) in the 17th of 2025 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Saturday, April 4th. The first double header game will be challenged at the Ma Chidambaram stadium in Chennai.
Super Kings have badly started a new campaign, with just one win in three so far. Currently there are also worries about fitness, with a captain Ruturaj gaikwad Allegedly confronted with a race against time to be throwing for this meeting.
Given their weaknesses and a bad form of several players, CSK is likely to think about a few changes.
CSK -OV team for IPL 2025: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Rahul Tripathi, Shaik Rasheed, Deepak Hood, Andre Siddarth, Devon Conway, MS Dhoni, Vansh Bedi, Ravandra Jadeja, Shiumam Dube, R Ashwin, Sam Sam Rachin RavidraVijay Shankar, Anshul KambojJamie Overton, Ramakrishna Ghosh, Noor Ahmad, Shreyas Gopal, Matheesha Passion, Khaleel Ahmed, Kamlesh Nagarkoti, Mukesh Choudhary, Gurjapneet Singh, Nathan Ellis.
On this note, here is the scheduled CSK, playing XI, except for several Impact Player options for Match 17 of IPL 2025.
Openers: Rachin Ravidra and Devon Conway

Rahul Tripathi was at sea against swing and heavy lengths in PowerPlay, and moving to the middle row could be an option for CSK. They obviously need some firmness and could decide to bring themselves to Devon Conway, who was a consistent runner at the top of the row. Conway could replace Jamie Overton, who was buried for races in two powerplay, he bought himself against Rajasthan Royals (RR).
Rachin Ravandra failed in the last game, but he seems to be in good Nick, and perseverance with him at the top of the order makes sense. If CSK wants, they could also use its vortex through a medium accessory.
Middle Order: Ruturaj Gaikwad (C), Rahul Tripathi, ShiVamo Dube, Ravandra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (WK)

Gaikwad, if Fit, you should continue to hit the number 3. If CSK Captain does not make a grade, he could be replaced by Vijay Shankar or even Shaik Rasheed, who was part of the Impact Subs in the first three matches.
Tripathi could be used in the middle order to take over DC Spinners, against which there is a good head record to head. It will be followed by Shimam Duba, who needs to come to a party if Super Kings wants to turn the season turn.
Ravandra Jadeja and Mrs. Dhoni do not add great value in the middle turn, and former poor starts caught him to death. The senior retained duo must enhance their game and contribute more to the team.
Lower line: Ravicharndran Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, Matheesha Passion, Khaleel Ahmed

The return of the Ravirchandran Ashwin housing did not go to plan, and the veterans of the extraordinary must find his best form on the eve of CSK’s conflict against his former franchise. It will be paired with Noor Ahmad in the Spin Department.
Matheesha Passion slowly shows the signs of his best shape and should keep his place in Bok, and Khaleel Ahmed served as an option of Indian Pace Frontline.
Player Options – Vijay Shankar, Shaik Rasheed, Anshul Camboat
Without overton, CSK will need a third pacer. Anshul Kamboat is probably a leader, thanks to his ability to take Wikets with a new ball and resort to heavy lengths through a medium accessory.
They are unlikely to have the freedom to do it if Gaikwad plays, but Shakar or Rasheed could be brought as a banging base.
