As Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) prepare to face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 57 of IPL 2025, all eyes will be on Sunil Narine—the mystery spinner who has tormented batters for over a decade. But in recent years, Sunil Narine has added another dimension to his game: explosive batting at the top of the order.
With the match set to take place at Eden Gardens, Narine's dual threat—both with bat and ball—could be the difference-maker. Let's break down his IPL stats and records against CSK ahead of this crucial encounter.
Narine is no longer just a bowler who can swing the bat—he's now a genuine power-hitter at the top of KKR's lineup. Against CSK, his numbers reflect his high-risk, high-reward approach:
Stat | Value |
---|---|
Matches | 21 |
Innings | 14 |
Runs | 167 |
Highest Score | 44 |
Average | 13.92 |
Strike Rate | 157.55 |
Not Outs | 2 |
50s/100s | 0/0 |
Sunil Narine's primary role remains containing runs and taking wickets in the middle overs. Against CSK, he has been exceptionally economical:
Stat | Value |
---|---|
Wickets Taken | 26 |
Best Bowling | 3/13 |
Economy Rate | 6.28 |
Narine has been a thorn in CSK's side for years. While his batting is hit-or-miss, his bowling is always a threat. If he fires in both departments, KKR could cruise to victory.
