The IPL 2025 league stage is reaching its final stages, with Match 67 featuring Gujarat Titans (GT) taking on Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on May 25, 2025, beginning at 3:30 PM IST. GT has already qualified for the playoffs and is currently first in the points table with 18 points from 13 matches, and in order to secure a top two finish and qualify directly for Qualifier 1. A victory is needed to prevent them from finding themselves in the Eliminator. For CSK, they find themselves at the bottom of the points table after only three wins in 13 matches and have already suffered their poorest IPL season. CSK has already been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention.

Ahmedabad's weather for May 25, 2025, is expected to be warm, with temperatures ranging from 32-38°C and humidity levels between 40-50%. While there is no forecast for rain, dew that may settle will affect the second innings, making it harder to bowl as the ball will skid on the dew. The Narendra Modi Stadium pitch has shown that it is a batting-friendly pitch, and five of the six matches so far this season have been won by the team batting first. Fast bowlers will find variable bounce on the pitch early, and spinners will find turn in the middle overs. Scores in the range of 180-220 are expected, with 200+ being a par score by teams batting first. If captains choose to bat first, they will want to set a big total that will make it a harder chase before the dew makes chasing easier.
Gujarat Titans, led by Shubman Gill, has had a consistent season. Sai Sudharsan has made a mark by scoring 638 runs at a marginally impressive average of 55.91 —to be recognized as a centurion against Delhi Capitals. Their bowlers, led by Rashid Khan and Mohammed Shami, have supported the side in staying clear of a run-scoring intuition from their opponents.
Chennai Super Kings: After a horrible season (form: LWLLL), the CSK has only three victories and recently lost to Rajasthan Royals by six wickets. The team's inexperienced batting order has found some younger stars like Ayush Mhatre and Dewald Brevis in a horrible batting order, with Ravi Jadeja and Shivam Dube providing experience. On the bowling side, spinners Ravichandran Ashwin and Noor Ahmad, and Matheesha Pathirana, will finish out on the team.
