Chennai Super Kings (CSK), one of the most celebrated teams in IPL history, faced a humiliating setback in their latest match at the iconic M.A. Chidambaram Stadium, popularly known as Chepauk.
In a stunning turn of events, CSK crumbled to their all-time lowest IPL total of 103/9 in 20 overs, surpassing their previous record low of 109/10 set against Mumbai Indians in 2018. The dramatic batting collapse has left fans reeling and sparked widespread concern about the team’s form this season.
The nightmare began early for CSK, with their top order crumbling under pressure from a relentless bowling attack. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, along with key batsmen like Shivam Dube, struggled to find rhythm, falling to precise pace bowling that exploited Chepauk’s conditions.
Despite a valiant effort from Ravindra Jadeja, who fought hard to anchor the innings, the rest of the lineup faltered, unable to counter the opposition’s disciplined strategy. The rival pacers, with their fiery spells, stole the show, leaving CSK’s star-studded batting unit in disarray.
