Prediction No. 1: Shubman Gill to score 70-plus
Gujarat skipper Shubman Gill has been in exceptional form with the willow in IPL 2025. In 13 innings, he has amassed 636 runs at an average of 57.82 and a strike rate of 156.65, with the aid of six half-centuries.

Gill could hammer 70-75 off 30-35 balls against CSK on Sunday.
Prediction No. 2: MS Dhoni to chip in with a quick-fire cameo
CSK captain MS Dhoni has played a number of impressive cameos in IPL 2025. Batting lower down the order, he has chipped in with 196 runs in 13 innings at a strike rate of 135.17, with a best of 30*.
If Dhoni gets a chance to bat on Sunday, expect him to score a quick-fire 20-25 runs off 10-12 balls.
Prediction No. 3: GT to beat CSK by a decent margin
While Chennai would be keen to end IPL 2025 on a high, that might not happen considering their poor form. They have been below par in all departments. As for Gujarat, they would be highly motivated to win since it would confirm a top two berth for them. Expect Gujarat to beat Chennai by either 15-20 runs or 3-4 wickets.
