The 17th game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 is being carried out between the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Delhi capitals (DC) In the iconic Ma Chidambaram Stadium of Chennai. However, just before the game, Delhi was a major blow as a veteran workshop FAF DU PLESSIS was ruled out due to fitness problems. This marks the first game that the South -African campaign is experiencing this season, and its absence is an important setback for Delhi, especially considering its rich experience of playing Chennai during its term with CSK.
Reason for the absence of FAF du Plessis
Captain of Delhi Axar PatelDuring the launch, he confirmed that FAF would not be available for this critical meeting. “FAF is not suitable for this game,” said Axar, talking to the launch “We introduced Sameer Rizvi to replace The news was especially disappointing for fans wanting to see that Du Plessis returned to Chepauk, his old home ground, where he has given many memorable performances during his time with CSK.
Axar also explained the decision to beat first after winning the launch. “We will first go to beat. It seems that there will be help for early bowls. As the game progresses, we hope that the pitch is slower. We are lucky to have several players with experience in our training that have captured other franchises before, this helps me greatly in the field.” Axar concluded.
In the absence of FAF, Delhi has become a promising young man Sameer Rizviwhich comes from Uttar Pradesh. Rizvi will now have a golden opportunity to impact, especially in a game of great participation like this. His selection suggests the growing emphasis of Delhi in encouraging young talent, especially in view of his recent concerns of injuries.

Changes in CSK line for IPL 2025 against DC
On the other hand, Chennai also made a couple of important changes in his initial eleven. Two key players, Rahul Tripthi and Jamie OvertonThey were out of the game. Replacing —the is Devon conwaythe constant blender of the new command of New Zealand and Mukesh ChudharyThe left arm pater known for its ability to swing the new ball. The decision to include Conway indicates CSK’s intention to strengthen his higher order, while Mukesh adds depth to his rhythm attack.
The clash between CSK and DC is crucial to both sides, as they aim to consolidate their position on the point table. Although Delhi’s line looks a little less experienced without Du Pessis, now all eyes will be in the way Rizvi climbs under pressure. In the meantime, CSK will try to take advantage of the advantage of the home and exploit the conditions that have traditionally worked in favor. With two strong alignments, tactical retouching and unexpected players omissions, the stage is established for a fast -paced contest in Chepauk.
