Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) faced a narrow two-wicket defeat against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at Eden Gardens in Kolkata. The result delivered a major blow to KKR's playoff hopes in the ongoing IPL 2025. Despite the loss, the match featured several impactful batting cameos that kept the crowd entertained and the game alive.
Ajinkya Rahane and Andre Russell made strong contributions with the bat for KKR, while Dewald Brevis and Shivam Dube played crucial roles in CSK’s successful chase. However, none of these players managed to break into the top 10 of the Orange Cap standings.
The Orange Cap list continues to be led by Mumbai Indians’ (MI) star batter Suryakumar Yadav, who has scored 510 runs so far. Close behind him are Gujarat Titans' (GT) duo—Sai Sudharsan with 509 runs and Shubman Gill with 508 runs—holding the second and third spots respectively.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s (RCB) veteran, Virat Kohli, occupies the fourth spot with 505 runs, while GT’s Jos Buttler is just behind him in fifth with 500 runs. Rajasthan Royals’ (RR) opener Yashasvi Jaiswal is in sixth place with 473 runs.
Punjab Kings (PBKS) opener Prabhsimran Singh sits in the seventh spot with 437 runs, followed by Lucknow Super Giants’ (LSG) Nicholas Pooran at eighth with 410 runs. Pooran had a strong start but has faced some struggles recently.
PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer has been a consistent performer and currently holds the ninth spot with 405 runs. Meanwhile, Delhi Capitals’ (DC) KL Rahul rounds out the top 10 with 381 runs, though he is still searching for consistency in the latter half of the tournament.
