 "IPL 2025: Irfan Pathan Trolls CSK, PBKS Players With Savage 'Legends League' Jab" "In addition to being a high-scoring contest, the match between Punjab Kings and Chennai Super Kings was marred by poor fielding performances." The IPL 2025 clash between Punjab Kings and Chennai Super Kings turned into a thrilling run-fest in Mullanpur, with both teams crossing the 200-run mark.
