n a commanding farewell to a forgettable season, the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) delivered an 83-run thrashing to Gujarat Titans (GT) in their final match of IPL 2025 at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Sunday.
Winning the toss and electing to bat first, CSK unleashed an aggressive display of power-hitting. Devon Conway (52) and Dewald Brevis (57) laid a solid foundation, guiding their side to a formidable total of 230 for 5 in 20 overs — their highest score this season.
GT, in return, faltered early and never recovered. Wickets fell at regular intervals as CSK’s bowlers maintained tight lines and relentless pressure. The Titans were bundled out for just 147 in 18.3 overs, sealing a morale-boosting win for Chennai.
While the victory was emphatic, it couldn’t reverse the damage of a disappointing campaign. CSK, for the first time in IPL history, finished at the bottom of the points table — a bitter pill for one of the league’s most iconic franchises.
Despite the standings, Sunday’s performance was a reminder of CSK’s fighting spirit, offering a glimpse of what could’ve been — and perhaps what could return next season.
