Chennai Super Kings (CSK) Chennai Stephen Fleming He has expressed his disappointment after his side reduced to his fourth consecutive defeat at IPL 2025, falling into a dominant Punjab Kings (PBKS) dress in Mullanpur. Fleming pointed out a poor camp and a shake of the Battle of Superior Order as the main reasons for CSK struggles this season.
CSK’s last loss occurred on the back of a record of a record by PBKs Batter Priyansh Aryawhich turned around 103 of only 42 balls, the fastest that a player has had without any kind of history of the IPL. His blow helped PBKs to publish an unpleasant 220 Run target, which CSK failed to pursue, ending 201/5 at 20 points.
At a post-party press conference, Fleming did not diminish words about CSK performance. “So far it has been a frustrating season. The capture has been poor, but tonight it has been poor on both sides. Whether it was something in the light, I’m not sure, but certainly for us it was a field of concern.” he said.
He admitted that the surroundings of CSK handed the key moments of PBKs, especially during Arya entries, where the possibilities were expensive. “The game was really lost in the field. I thought we were neglected, and we only lacked precision under pressure at certain times.” Fleming noted, adding that these problems have been a recurring theme throughout the season.
Fleming also pointed to the fingers in inconsistent performances of the upper order of CSK, which have left the average and lower order with mass. In previous parties, including their loss to RCB in Chepauk, a similar concern was evidenced. Fleming described his field as “clumsy”, with lost opportunities that allow opponents to take control.
Despite having a stable nucleus submitted Loture Gaikwad, Devon conwayRavindra jadja and Ms womanCSK has not achieved consistent results. Gaikwad, who took over Dhoni’s captaincy last season, has not yet found the right pace to lead the side of his current fall.
With four trotes, CSK is now in the obligatory territory if it is contained in the Playoffs. The pressure increases both the fans and the punctures, as the five times champions look away from their best championship.
Super Kings need a quick turn as they prepare to face Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on Friday, April 11, in their Chennai home field.
With the season in a crucial phase, CSK will have to rediscover their shape, and quickly, if they expect to save their IPL 2025 campaign.
