The third match of the Indian Premier League 2025 between the Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians is currently underway at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chepauk, Chennai.
The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad won the toss and chose to bowl first in the match. He said that the track in Chennai is spicy and they want to adapt to the conditions quickly. He said:
"The preparation has been good. Everyone has been a part of the camp from the first day. We have a number of talented young players coming into the side. We also have our young wicket-keeper coming back as well. We also had a good auction.
"It's always good to be back in yellow. I have been playing here since a long time and I'm enjoying it. We have three medium-pacers to go with three spinners. Our four overseas players are Noor, Ellis, Rachin Ravindra and Sam Curran."
