Top 3 captaincy picks for PBKS vs CHE Dream11 Prediction Today: IPL 2025 Match 22

The 22nd match of the IPL 2025, PBKS vs CHE, is scheduled to be played on Tuesday evening in Chandigarh.

Chennai Super Kings (CSK) started Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 as one of the favorites to win the title, but the start they have had so far has been totally contrasting. They are among the bottom two with three consecutive defeats under their belt. Can they break this unwanted streak?

CSK are scheduled to face Punjab Kings (PBKS) in their upcoming game at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur on Tuesday evening. PBKS are also coming off a defeat, but they had a pretty good start to the tournament.

The stakes will be high and fans will be looking up to this game to invest in fantasy cricket platforms. You can also do well with a good side with good captain.

For that, we’ve suggested three players who could be great choice to be picked as captain of Dream11 teams on various fantasy cricket platforms.

Top three Dream11 captaincy picks for PBKS vs CHE, Match 22, IPL 2025

1. Shreyas Iyer

Shreyas Iyer is the man in form. He missed out on scoring big in the last game but before that, he stuck unbeaten half-centuries. He has earned 329 fantasy points at an average of 109.67 per game. This is a great consistency. More than that, his form will be the key.

Iyer loves playing against spin and he will have plenty of CSK spinners to hit them out of the park. That makes him an ideal player to pick as captain of PBKS vs CHE Dream11 teams.

2. Noor Ahmad

Noor Ahmad has earned 344 fantasy points, and is the joint-highest wicket-taker of this season. The wrist spinner has operated very smartly and he has MS Dhoni behind the stumps to guide him. Although CSK have not done well, individually Noor has been superb.

On an average, he has earned 86 fantasy points per game and can add more in the upcoming game. Apart from Shreyas Iyer, there are not many recognized batters in PBKS against spin. That is where Noor Ahmad can make a mark.

3. Ruturaj Gaikwad

Ruturaj Gaikwad has been cold and hot this season. The CSK captain has two fifties and got out on single-digit scores twice. With this pattern, he is likely to get another big score in the upcoming game. But more than that, his team needs a win and this is the time for him to prove.

Gaikwad might look to come at the top as the opening partnership is not doing well for CSK. Gaikwad will like the surface in Chandigarh and even there is not much spice in the PBKS bowling attack. That can fall in his favor. Hence, he can be a safe pick as captain for PBKS vs CHE Dream11 teams.
