Rajasthan Royals (RR) clinched a thrilling victory over Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by six wickets with 17 balls to spare in the 62nd match of IPL 2025. This win kept RR at the ninth spot, while CSK remained at the bottom of the points table.
CSK’s Batting Recovery
CSK found themselves in a precarious position at 78/5, but a remarkable recovery saw them post a competitive total of 187/8. Dewald Brevis and Shivam Dube were the architects of this comeback. Brevis smashed 42 off 25 balls, including three sixes, while Dube contributed a steady 39 off 32 balls, ensuring CSK had a fighting total.
Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s Explosive Innings
Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the young sensation of this IPL season, once again showcased his immense talent. He played a blistering knock of 57 off just 33 balls, striking at a rate of 172.72. His innings, peppered with four boundaries and four sixes, was a treat for the fans and a nightmare for the CSK bowlers.
Yashasvi Jaiswal’s Lucky Break
Yashasvi Jaiswal’s innings got off to a shaky start when he was dropped by MS Dhoni on the very first ball. Seizing this lifeline, Jaiswal went on to score a quickfire 36 off 19 balls, including five boundaries and two sixes. His aggressive start set the tone for RR’s successful chase.
