RCB vs CSK, IPL 2025: Kohli’s Battle Against CSK’s Spinners at Chepauk
As Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) prepares to face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in IPL 2025, the spotlight will be on Virat Kohli’s ability to tackle spin bowling. Historically, Kohli has excelled against pace but struggled against spin, with teams often slowing him down using spinners. However, Kohli has worked tirelessly on his game, improving his ability to counter spin, especially in high-pressure moments.
Coach Dinesh Karthik praised Kohli’s consistency and desire to improve, stating, “He has batted well against spin, especially in white-ball cricket, and has delivered in crucial matches like the T20 World Cup final and Champions Trophy.” Karthik also highlighted Kohli’s constant strive for perfection, saying, “Even now, at this stage of his career, he wants to add new shots to his game, showing his hunger for improvement.”
This will be crucial as RCB takes on CSK at the spin-friendly M.A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chepauk, where Kohli will face the likes of R Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja, and Noor Ahmad. CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad emphasized that playing against Kohli is always an exciting challenge. “Whenever he’s in the opposition, it’s always a match to look forward to,” Gaikwad said.
