Punjab Kings are batting against CSK in the fight to go to number four in the points table. Punjab Kings need 25 runs off 15 balls to win.

Batting first against Punjab Kings, CSK managed to accumulate 200 runs for four wickets in the allotted 20 overs. In other words, CSK scored ten runs per over against Punjab Kings. The game is almost over. Since Punjab Kings need only 25 runs to win and there are two power hitting batsmen in the wicket, it can be said that the result of this match will go in favor of Punjab Kings. 
Considering the net run rate, Punjab Kings may not go to number four in the points table.

Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings. CSK batted first and scored 200 runs by taking 4 wickets in 20 overs. Conway batted brilliantly, scoring 92 not out from 52 balls, narrowly missing out on a century.
So far PBKS has scored 151 runs with 4 wickets in 16 overs.They need 52 runs from 24 balls to win, Today I think Punjab can win.

In the 41st match, Chennai Super Kings scored a 200. Ruturaj Gaikwad's batting was not very good but Conway and Dhoni took the match to a reliable stage. Conway's 52-ball innings of 92 provides enough support to push the match to 200 runs. With his good performance, captain Dhoni did not do less. He made a score of 14 runs off just 4 balls. Conway and Dhoni were unbeaten with a strike rate of 176 and 325. In this session a 200 score is very common for almost all teams in this tournament. By this match Punjab Kings might be able to show something different.

Gaikwad not too good with the bat and and score 37 runs with 31 balls but Conway did well job and smashed Punjab bowlers. he scored 92 off 52. Unfortunately he did not hit century and only 8 runs short to hit but team will really appreciate his today batting. Dhoni smashed 2 sixes and now Punjab have to score 201 to win this match.

This run chasing will be tough for Punjab batsmen. although They scored two hundred plus in previous game but situation here will be different because CSK bowler will try their best to pick up some wickets and restrict Punjab.

Today the 41st Match of Indian Premier League has already started. Chennai Super Kings vs Punjab Kings these two teams came to the field to play. Chennai Super Kings won the toss and came to bat. Scored 115 runs in 12.4 overs. Chennai Super Kings team batsman Ruturaj Gaikwad  Got out for 37 runs off 31 balls. Devon Conway scored 57 runs off 34 balls. Shivam Dube scored 22 runs off 13 balls. If Chennai Super Kings can bat like this then they can score like 180 runs. Punjab Kings are not doing well in bowling.  Chennai Super Kings batting is performing so well.

2008, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2018, 2023 were the highest run records of IPL in the matches in which more than 240 runs took place in these six years.

Most runs scored in IPL history. Especially the 240 plus runs in the matches where those matches were in great form eg. The number one position is the 2013 IPL score. Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Pune warriors india 2013 The runs scored in this match was the high score of 2013 and it is the most runs in the history of IPL. Where RCB scored 263 runs and the highest run in IPL history. Archibi scored a huge victory of 130 runs in this match.

Then the record of IPL with the highest runs is second in the IPL match of 2023. The highest runs of IPL 2023 was LSG vs PBKS in this game. Maybe this is the highest run of IPL 2023 because no other team has been able to collect such runs as LSG has collected. LSG is second in the IPL record with 257 runs and it was a huge win for LSG. This match had the most runs in IPL 2023 compared to the matches played so far. Maybe a team can collect more runs than this in the next matches but this number of runs in 2023 is at the second position in terms of all the IPL matches that have been played so far.

Then the 2016 IPL match is at the third place in terms of highest runs in IPL. In this match, Royal Challengers Bangalore Vs Gujarat lion, RCB scored the highest runs in the game, which was the third record in terms of runs in IPL. RCB comprehensively won this match in 2016 by scoring 248 runs which was the highest IPL score of 2016. RCB won this match by 144 runs.

Highest run scored in 2010 IPL match Chennai Super Kings vs Rajasthan Lions match CSK won. The highest run in this IPL 2010 was in this match and CSK scored 246 runs in the match.

They scored 245 runs in the match in the poison over and it was the highest run record of 2018. This run record in the IPL is the fifth in terms of runs. KKR won this batch by 31 runs in 2018.

Today there are two matches Chennai vs Punjab and Mumbai vs Rajasthan. Now toss for Chennai vs Punjab match.  The game will start now.  But here Chennai is always expected to be ahead with Punjab and in another match Mumbai will be ahead what do you think in your prediction. Regardless of the toss, if Chennai bat first, they will target 200+ runs.  And if Punjab bat first then maybe they can give a target of 180 runs.
Edit - Chennai super kings choise to bat and Batting first, Gaikwad & Conway

Gujarat Titans have been able to maintain their consistency. Like the previous matches, Gujarat's performance in this match was very good. Gujarat's bowlers managed to restrict the Kolkata team to just 179 runs. Josh Little and Noor Ahmed's bowling was excellent. These two bowlers gave 25 and 21 runs respectively and took two wickets each. Also, Mohammad Shami managed to pick up 3 wickets. Due to the controlled bowling of these three bowlers, Kolkata's innings stopped at 179 runs.

The Gujarat team reached the target of victory in 17.5 overs on the brilliant batting of Vijay Shankar and David Miller. Vijay was unbeaten on 51 runs and Miller on 32 runs. Also Shubman Gill managed to collect 49 runs and Hardik Pandya 26 runs.

Gujarat is now at the top of the points table after winning 6 out of 8 matches. Gujarat is likely to secure the next round from the top of the points table.

Gujrat Titans win by 7 wickets and 13 balls remaining. GT won because of Vijay Shankar outstanding 51-run innings in 25 balls and Joshua Little 2 wickets for just 25 runs. The player of the match is Joshua Little for his amazing match winner performance.GT are strong contenders for the IPL crown thanks to their remarkable season long play. From KKR R. Gurbaz made a powerful knock of 81 runs in just 39 balls in a thrilling match. congratulate GT on their well deserved victory and wish them luck in the forth coming matches.

We have two matches yesterday, in the first game ahmanullah Gurbaz 81 runs on 39 balls went in vein as GT beat KKR in an easy run chase. GT is very new to IPL but under the captaincy of Hardik Pandya they are doing good. GT were 2022 IPL winner and they are also at number one position so far.
The second game between SRH and DC has not much impact on IPL points table. As DC are at number last and retain the lost spot after this loss while SRH is at number 8.

Sunrisers Hyderabad won this match. They proved to be a better team than the Delhi Capitals. Sunrisers Hyderabad scored 197 run batting first and it was the highest total on this ground. The opener Abhishek Sharma scored 67 runs in only 36 balls. Later in the innings Heinrich Klaasen also scored quick 50+ runs which helped Sunrisers Hyderabad to get a good defendable score.

Delhi Capitals batted well to reach to 188 runs on this wicket but failed to chase the total of 198 runs. At one moment i thought  that Delhi Capitals may take this game but when Phil Salt and Mitchell Marsh was out, the chances were less for the DC.

Delhi Capitals' performance has been very disappointing this season. Their batsmen batting is very weak. Warner performed brilliantly in the first few matches. He has batted well in every match. But his strike rate was very low. But now Delhi's overall performance is very poor. Both the batting and bowling performance of their players is not good. Delhi was able to fight against Sunrisers Hyderabad only because of Mitchell Marsh's performance. He managed to pick up 4 wickets as well as batting well. He was able to collect 63 runs. Besides, no other batsmen on the team can play big innings.


This is an Indian Premier League thread. I don't know why you are writing here about Oman vs Kuwait ODI match. You can write it in ODI thread.

When Salt and Marsh were playing, I thought DC would win easily but their fall and dc gone. Literally useless batters except akshar and three foreign players (warner, salt, marsh). Same happens with RCB, even if they reach play-offs they won't be able to win trophy because of their dependency.

Gujarat batsmen did not face any problems to win this match. I knew Kolkata's bowling lineup was weak. Still, I expected Kolkata to win as Kolkata has some talented batsmen in their squad. But the team was defeated in this match due to the batsmen's performance not being good. While the two openers played reasonably well, the team's middle-order performance was abysmal. If any of the batsmen in the middle order performed well, Kolkata could have at least given the target of 200. A mere 179 against a strong team like Gujarat was not enough to win. Gujarat won this match quite easily.

I think it is almost impossible for KKR and Delhi Capitals to secure playoffs now. The performance of these two teams is very poor. The overall condition of their team is not very good. I consider Gujarat, Rajasthan, and Chennai as favorites for the playoffs. The performances of these three teams are now quite strong and consistent. They lost quite a few matches but by a very narrow margin. LSG is a strong team but I don't consider this team as favorite as this team's performance is very erratic.
Bengaluru and Punjab are still likely to be in the top four of the table. Then of course their performance needs consistency. If the performance is not stable they will not be able to climb to the top of the table.

179 was not enough for Kolkata to win against Gujarat Titans.  Gujarat Titans won this in just 17 overs. By winning this match, Kolkata had a chance to make it to the playoffs but Kolkata missed that opportunity and now it is very difficult for Kolkata to secure the playoffs. Because so far Kolkata have played maximum number of matches. nine matches already where they have won only three matches. They have only five matches left.  Out of five matches, four matches will be very challenging for them as their opponents for four matches are very strong. 

Punjab Kings, Rajasthan Royals, Lucknow Super Giants, Chennai Super Kings these four teams are in a very good position in the points table and their performances are also very good. Considering these statistics, it can be assumed that KKR's playoff is almost certain.

Apart from Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Russel, none of the batsmen in the team can play well. I think Venkatesh Iyer is one of the most experienced batsmen in the Kolkata team. He scored only 11 runs off 14 balls. Iyer's strike rate was probably less than 100 in the last match as well. We don't expect such a silly performance from an experienced batsman like Iyer.
Moreover, Gujarat's batting line-up is very strong. A target of at least 200 runs was required to win against them. It is almost impossible to beat Gujarat with a target of just 180 runs. Moreover, the performance of the Kolkata bowlers was also poor.

Undoubtedly, Kolkata Knight Riders is a good team and they have performed well in the past IPLs to become champions and runners-up. But one of the main reasons for their seven-wicket loss to Gujarat Titans in yesterday's match was Kolkata's failure to bat well towards the end.
One of the team's two batsmen Venkatesh Iyer 11 (14 ball) and Rinku Singh 19 (20 ball) they basically batted like six overs and collected only 30 runs. This is where one of the main reasons for Kolkata Knight Riders defeat can be considered. Moreover, the bowling performance of Kolkata Knight Riders in yesterday's match was not worth watching. Kolkata's bowling department could not create much pressure on Gujarat Titans' batsmen. This can also be considered as one of the main reasons for the defeat in tomorrow's match.

Gujarat played well and they won the match in a much comfortable way. The poor bowling from Kolkata Knight Riders is the reason. 179 runs is a good target, atleast KKR should've tried to end the match at the last over. The team is quite strong and every player used to contribute, even in the match against KKR it is possible to see the score coming from each an every player starting from the opener. Some fortune need to happen for other teams, if not this season of IPL is gonna be lifted by Gujarat Titans.

Simple mistake from DC today I think was sending Axar in too late. Axar Patel is the star player they have right now. He is one of the best all rounders of India right now let alone DC. I don't know what's the point sending him after Sarfaraz or Priyam Garg. You have to know what's the demand of the situation in every match, otherwise you'll end up making such decisions. I think he should become a permanent number 5 spot holder for DC unless there's a quick fall of the top order.
