IPL 2025, Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians Live Score: Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) get their Indian Premier League (IPL) campaign underway with a highly anticipated clash at the Chepauk Stadium today.
Noor Ahmad spun trouble all through the Mumbai Indians’ batting ranks, wreaking havoc and ending his debut for the Chennai Super Kings with a four-fer, as MI were held to a total of 155 runs.
The signs were there for MI from the get-go, as veteran Rohit Sharma departed for a disappointing duck, falling victim to Khaleel Ahmed in the very first over.
Ahmed would only follow it up by removing debutante Ryan Rickleton in the following over to pile the early pressure on MI.
In the time of need, SKY and Tilak Varma helped MI navigate the early demise, as the duo added some valuable runs to keep the visitors in the hunt.
But, a menacing spin spell from the trio of Ashwin, Jadeja and Noor would undo all the work, with debutante Noor Ahmed ending his outing with figures of 4/18.
A last-minute knock of 28* from new recruit Deepak Chahar would be the difference maker, helping MI set a target of 156 runs.
