The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 has entered its final stage and the four teams of the playoffs have been fixed. Royal Challengers Bangalore, Punjab Kings, Gujarat Titans and Mumbai Indians have made their place in the final four. Now the competition is going on to finish in the top-2. At the same time, the teams of Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) have been out of the playoff race and today the two teams will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
This match can prove to be very important
Although this match will not affect the picture of the playoffs, both teams would like to end the season with victory. This match can prove to be very important, especially for KKR’s experienced all -rounder Sunil Naren. In this match, he has a chance to name a big record of the Indian Premier League. Sunil Naren has so far taken 190 wickets in 188 matches in IPL. If he takes three wickets in today’s match, he will overtake veteran leg -spinner Piyush Chawla (192 wickets) to become the third highest wicket -taker in the league.
Yuzvendra Chahal’s name for the highest wicket taking
Currently, the record of taking the most wickets in IPL is in the name of Yuzvendra Chahal, who has taken 219 wickets in 172 matches. After him, Bhuvneshwar Kumar is second with 194 wickets. Chawla is third and Naren fourth. He is followed by R Ashwin (187), Dwayne Bravo (183) and Jaspreet Bumrah (181).
However, this season of IPL 2025 has not been more impressive than the ball for Naren. He has taken only 10 wickets in 11 matches. This season, KKR has been the most successful bowler Varun Chakraborty, who has taken 17 wickets in 12 matches. KKR fans will be expecting a strong performance from Naren today.
