The Chennai Super Kings (CSK) suffered their fourth consecutive loss in IPL 2025 as the Punjab Kings (PBKS) beat them by 18 runs on Tuesday, April 8, at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur. As a result, they are languishing in the ninth position in the table with two points from five games.

The Yellow Brigade commenced their campaign with a four-wicket win against the Mumbai Indians (MI). However, things went south for them, losing four games on the trot. It also highlighted several weaknesses in CSK's team. Chennai's batting has lacked firepower, fielding has been lackluster, and the bowling unit has been inconsistent, which has led to their dismal performances.

Fans observed CSK's poor performance across all departments in IPL 2025 so far and trolled them by sharing memes on X. One of the sarcastic posts about the team's captain, Ruturaj Gaikwad, read:

"Don't blame Dhoni, blame the others for the way they are batting" - Aakash Chopra on CSK after their loss vs PBKS in IPL 2025

Former Indian cricketer Aakash Chopra recently reviewed CSK's batting performance against PBKS in a video shared on his YouTube channel. He pointed out that Super Kings became the first team to suffer a defeat after not losing a wicket in powerplay. He also criticized Devon Conway for his sedate half-century during the high-scoring run chase.

The cricketer-turned-commentator said:

"Chennai became the first team to lose a match despite not losing a wicket in the powerplay. This hadn't happened this year, but this is what they have done. However, when a wicket fell, the second fell after the first. Rachin (Ravindra) got out first, and then Rutu (Ruturaj Gaikwad) got out. Then, there was a question about Devon Conway. He was retired out in the end."

Chopra elaborated:

"If you are chasing 11 runs per over from the first over, you can't play at a strike rate of 150. They might have made a match of it had they retired him out earlier. Dhoni came and hit sixes as well, but he came too late. It wasn't his fault this time. He would only come when a wicket would fall. However, the match had gone too far by then. So don't blame Dhoni, blame the others for the way they are batting."
