The eighteenth edition of the Indian Premier League will get its first encounter between five-time champions Chennai Super Kings and Punjab Kings at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in New Chandigarh. Both teams will be looking to get back to winning ways heading into their fifth matchday. Chennai Super Kings lost their last three consecutive fixtures against Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore. Punjab Kings lost their last fixture against Rajasthan Royals. CSK and Punjab Kings have clashed against each other on the previous 30 occasions. Chennai holds the bragging rights with 16 victories under their belt compared to Punjab’s 14. Both teams will be reliant on their bowlers to get a positive result at this venue which is known to support pacers.

Here is the list of three bowlers who can help their side claim victory.

3. Arshdeep Singh

The left-handed bowler from Punjab has been the pick of their bowling attack. The pacer has scalped 6 wickets in 3 matches for Punjab Kings this season so far. His ability to swing the ball both ways is sure to pose a threat to Chennai’s opening batters, who haven’t been in the best form.

2. Matheesha Pathirana

The right-arm sling pacer from Sri Lanka has been the go-to bowler for Chennai this season. His ability to bowl picture-perfect Yorkers in deathovers has earned him the nickname of ‘baby Malinga’. The pacer has been in fine form as he has scalped 5 wickets in 3 matches at an astonishingly low economy rate.

1. Noor Ahmad

The left-arm- chinaman from Afghanistan has been the best bowler in IPL 2025 so far. The current purple cap holder has scalped 10 wickets in 4 matches conceding runs at less than 7 runs an over. His ability to pick wickets in the middle overs is what sets him apart from others.
