CSK vs PBKS Fantasy XI: Best Players to Pick for IPL 2025 Match 49

The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Punjab Kings (PBKS) will face off in the 49th match of Tata IPL 2025 on April 30th at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai.

Punjab and PBKS are both struggling in the Indian cricket league. Punjab won the 22nd match of the season by 18 runs, but has only won one out of their last five matches at home. They are currently at the bottom of the table and have only managed to win two times in the season. With five games remaining, they are unlikely to finish in the top four. Meanwhile, PBKS has won five out of nine matches and is currently in fifth position with 11 points. The Shreyas Iyer-led team needs to give an extra push to secure a spot in the top four, as competition increases in the final month of the tournament.
