Gujarat Titans vs Rajasthan Royals, IPL Match

April 09, 2025· 17:27 IST

PBKS vs CSK, IPL Match Highlights: Rookie opener Priyansh Arya delivered on his high promise with a sensational hundred before the bowlers survived MS Dhoni's late onslaught to script an 18-run win for Punjab Kings over Chennai Super Kings in the IPL in Chandigarh on Tuesday. Priyansh (103 off 42) powered Punjab Kings to 219 for six, the highest total at the venue, after the hosts lost half their side inside the first eight overs. CSK batters have not been good enough thus far in the season but the likes of Devon Conway (69 off 49 retired out), Rachin Ravindra (36 off 23) and Shivam Dube (42 off 27) were able to take the game deep on this occasion. However, CSK fell short and ended at 201 for five. It was CSK's fourth loss in five games while Punjab Kings recorded their third win in four matches.

Drinks break, but the tension is palpable! The fall of Sanju Samson has really put the cat amongst the pigeons for RR. They're down to their last recognised batting pair, and a long, vulnerable tail wags precariously behind them. 99 runs needed from just 7 overs – a mountain to climb! Did they cough up too many wickets earlier in this chase? Now it's all on Shimron Hetmyer to be the cool head and guide them home, a herculean task indeed. Rashid Khan (3-0-29-1) returns to the fray – can he turn the screw even tighter?

That's a huge moment! The back of Sanju Samson! This strategic break couldn't have come at a better time for the bowling side. RR are now down to their last recognised batting pair with a long, vulnerable tail wagging behind them. 99 runs are still needed from just 7 overs – a mountain to climb! You have to wonder if they're ruing those earlier wickets they gifted away in the chase.

Strategic timeout, folks! A massive blow for Rajasthan as Sanju Samson departs! That wicket could be the turning point. This is now officially the last recognized batting pair for RR, and a long, long tail stretches out behind them. The equation? A daunting 99 runs required from the final 7 overs. Rajasthan might be kicking themselves, feeling they squandered too many wickets early on – can they pull off this miraculous chase?
