Right then, that brings the curtains down on another high-stakes clash! Chennai Super Kings have officially been knocked out of the tournament, and from here on, it’s only pride they’ll be playing for. Punjab Kings, on the other hand, leap to second place on the points table and have a real shot at locking in a top-two finish. Up next, we usher in a brand-new month with a blockbuster clash in the Indian Premier League! On May 1st, 2025, Thursday, it's Match 50 at the iconic Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, where the Rajasthan Royals take on the Mumbai Indians in a high-stakes encounter with two crucial points up for grabs. The action kicks off at 7.30 pm IST (2 pm GMT), but as always, don’t miss a moment of the pre-match buzz and tune in early for all the build-up. Until then, it's goodbye and cheers.

Josh Inglis is the next man in.
Is that a clean grab from Dewald Brevis near the ropes? The replay shows that his first contact with the ball is inside the field. Then, as he goes over, he releases the ball while being in the air and then does it again. In the end, he takes the catch inside the field. A brilliant effort.
Ravindra Jadeja comes back into the attack. He has conceded 17 runs in his first 2 overs.
Shashank Singh comes out to bat.
STRATEGIC BREAK! Punjab Kings have this chase well in their hands now as they need 60 runs in the last six overs. Their skipper, Shreyas Iyer, is well set with a half century, and they still have eight wickets in their kitty. Though Prabhsimran Singh got out after a fifty but he did his job up the order and provided a much-needed base for this big chase for them. On the contrary, Chennai Super Kings need wickets and that too in clusters to make a comeback in this game. They lost their plot in the last couple of overs in the first inning, and they haven't done well in the bowling either. Matheesha Pathirana has proved to be a bit expensive in his first over, and the spin has also been ineffective today for them so far. There have been a couple of fielding lapses as well, and that is hurting them a big time. Can they make a comeback, or will PBKS go home with ease? Let's find out, and with that, Matheesha Pathirana comes back into the attack.

Strategic Break! This game is nicely poised at the moment, and it is really hard to predict which way it will go. Punjab Kings will be happy that Shreyas Iyer and Prabhsimran Singh are keeping up with the asking rate and finding a boundary every over, but continuing in the same way will not be that easy. Chennai Super Kings are looking for a wicket or two, as they know that PBKS' middle order is a bit shaky and with the pressure of chasing a target, can falter. They will hope that their spin twins can wave some magic and get control of this game. Also, Sam Curran is to bowl after the break.
