Chennai Super Kings (CSK) started their IPL 2025 campaign with a solid 4-wicket win over Mumbai Indians (MI) in the tournament’s opening match. Chasing a 156-run target, CSK secured victory with five balls to spare. Mumbai’s batting lineup struggled, with Rohit Sharma failing to make an impact, adding to the team’s disappointment. The most electrifying moment of the match came when MS Dhoni showcased his legendary wicketkeeping skills, stumping Suryakumar Yadav in just 0.12 seconds. His lightning-fast dismissal triggered Mumbai’s collapse, making it difficult for them to post a challenging total. This loss extended MI’s unfortunate streak of losing opening matches since 2012. Despite a competitive effort, their batting lineup lacked the resilience needed to counter CSK’s disciplined bowling attack. CSK’s chase was steady, ensuring a comfortable win and a strong start to their campaign.
