This is a new ground having hosted only six matches so far with no such advantage to any inning. Before the last match, teams batting second had the advantage of winning one extra match while there is no such advantage now as both teams have won three matches each. The average score is a solid 174 runs suggesting a good batting track.
PBKS vs CSK head to head records show a closely contested rivalry, with both teams having faced each other 30 times in the IPL. Chennai Super Kings hold a slight edge with 16 wins, while Punjab Kings have emerged victorious in 14 encounters. However, this match presents the best opportunity for Punjab to narrow the gap, as Chennai Super Kings are currently experiencing the worst form in their IPL history.

Shreyas Iyer has scored 25 runs in 20 balls against Khaleel Ahmed and got out twice. His strike rate is 125. He has hit 2 fours and 1 six. Khaleel has been able to trouble Iyer a bit, keeping his average to just 12.5.
Ruturaj has scored 57 runs off 46 balls against Arshdeep and has been dismissed 3 times. His strike rate is around 124. He has hit 10 fours but no sixes. Arshdeep has been quite effective against him with regular dot balls and wickets.
Maxwell has scored 70 runs from 51 balls off Jadeja but has been out 6 times. His average is only 11.7. Even though his strike rate is decent (137), Jadeja has clearly had the upper hand in this battle.
Shreyas Iyer, leading Punjab Kings in IPL 2025, and leading from the front in his batting. He already has scored an unbeaten 97 off 42 balls against Gujarat Titans this season and is looking dangerous. Iyer has a good record against Chennai Super Kings scoring 290 runs in 13 innings with an average of 26.36.
Arshdeep Singh, retained by Punjab Kings for ₹18 crore, and he is showing why in this season. He performed well against Lucknow Super Giants, picking up three wickets for 43 runs. He has not been wicket less in his last ten innings in T20s. Arshdeep Singh has troubled Chennai’s captain Ruturaj Gaikwad, dismissing him thrice in 46 balls. He is a must have in your fantasy teams.
Ruturaj Gaikwad, captaining Chennai Super Kings has been good with the bat in this season but his leadership is under circles. However he is a big match player and Chennai Can definitely make a comeback from this match itself. He has a hundred against Punjab Kings. He has scored a total of 241 runs with an average of 34.43 runs per match in 8 innings.
Noor Ahmad, the Afghan spinner playing for Chennai Super Kings has delivered in each and every match so far for Chennai Super Kings, picking up 10 wickets in four matches so far. This includes a four-fer against Mumbai Indians in the very first match.
Shivam Dube has shown versatility in the middle order for Chennai Super Kings. Dube has scored quick runs but is quiet in this season so far, however he needs one match to bring the form and this could be the match for him. Shivam Dube has a half century against Punjab Kings playing for Chennai Super Kings.
Nehal Wadhera has emerged as a promising talent of Mumbai Indians in the last year and for Punjab Kings for this year. He has scored two back to back half centuries, one in a winning cause and other in a losing cause. But he has performed well in both games he gets to bat.
Praveen Dubey and Kamlesh Nagarkoti are both substitute players listed in the impact player list and are not used yet by the teams. The chances of them making it to the playing 11 is very bleak so, you can avoid them in your Dream11 team.
