Top 3 Dream11 Captain choices

Yuzvendra Chahal: The PBKS leg-spinner Yuzvendra Chahal has taken nine wickets in nine matches in the IPL 2025, including a heroic four-wicket haul against Kolkata Knight Riders to successfully defend 111 runs. Chennai produces a spin-friendly wicket, and Chahal can play a huge role in this game.

Prabhsimran Singh: Prabhsimran Singh is the second most run-scorer for PBKS this season by scoring 292 runs in nine innings with an average of 32.44 and a strike rate of 168.78, including two half-centuries. After three 30+ scores in four innings, Singh scored 83 runs in their last game.

Priyansh Arya: Uncapped Priyansh Arya is the leading run-scorer for PBKS with 323 runs in nine innings, with an average of 35.88 and a strike rate of 200.62. He has recorded one century and one half-century this season. In their last meeting against CSK, Arya inspired his franchise with his fiery batting performances, while his teammates were losing wickets cheaply. Also, in their last game against Kolkata Knight Riders, Arya scored 69 runs.

Shreyas Iyer: Punjab Kings' captain Shreyas Iyer's golden form with the bat has just gone off with the scores of 0, 7, 6, and 25 not out in the last four innings. However, on the slow Chennai pitch, Iyer's batting will be very important for his team.

Noor Ahmad: CSK' Afghan spinner Noor Ahmad is the leading wicket-taker as a spinner in the IPL 2025 with 14 wickets in nine matches. His economy rate is also very impressive, 8.03.

Ravindra Jadeja: CSK all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja needs to play more key roles for his team, which he is capable of. In the last three games, he played crucial roles as an all-rounder, including a half-century. Although he took only six wickets in nine matches this season, his bowling economy rate is 8.23.
