CSK vs DC Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket Tips, Player Stats For 17th Match of IPL 2025
Chennai Super Kings face Delhi Capitals at Chepauk with injury concerns and inconsistent form
Chennai Super Kings will face Delhi Capitals in the 17th match of IPL 2025 on 5 April 2025, at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. This article will guide you in making the perfect team for CSK vs DC match with expert Dream11 predictions and fantasy cricket tips.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) find themselves in unfamiliar territory early in IPL 2025, having lost two of their first three matches. Their bowling has been inconsistent—conceding nearly 200 runs against RCB on a sluggish pitch and leaking 129 in the first 12 overs against Rajasthan Royals.
CSK’s batting, too, looks vulnerable, heavily reliant on Ruturaj Gaikwad, whose availability remains uncertain. He only faced throwdowns in nets and avoided full-blooded practice, casting doubt on his inclusion. While Rachin Ravindra has impressed early, the middle order—featuring Rahul Tripathi and Shivam Dube—has underwhelmed. The franchise’s uncharacteristic constant tinkering with their XI reflects the lack of stability.
Delhi Capitals (DC), on the other hand, are riding high after two commanding wins. Their well-rounded bowling attack—led by Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and youngster Vipraj Nigam—could thrive on Chennai’s spin-friendly surface, especially with the match scheduled for the afternoon, amplifying assistance for spinners.
While CSK have a dominant home record over DC—winning their last seven matches at Chepauk—this might be their toughest test yet. If Gaikwad remains unavailable and the middle order fails to fire, a red-hot Delhi side could break that streak.
