Player battles to watch out for in CSK vs PBKS, Match 49 in IPL 2025:

1. Rachin Ravindra vs Arshdeep Singh

The left-hander Rachin Ravindra is set to face left-arm seamer Arshdeep Singh, one of the best in T20 cricket, in a do-or-die match for CSK. Rachin will look to go on the attack during the powerplay, taking on the bowlers early, while Arshdeep aims to swing the ball both ways. The two youngsters have faced each other only once in T20 cricket, where Rachin scored 9 runs off 8 balls against Arshdeep without being dismissed.

2. Shreyas Iyer vs Noor Ahmed

Punjab captain Shreyas Iyer is set to face Afghanistan’s premier spinner Noor Ahmad on the turning tracks of Chepauk—conditions that could test Iyer’s skills against spin. The two have never faced each other in T20s before, but this matchup could play a crucial role in determining the outcome of the game.
