CSK faced another defeat in the 2025 IPL season, this time against RR. However, they can take comfort in their spot on the Purple Cap list. Let’s take a look at the current standings for top wicket-takers and highest run-scorers in this year’s tournament.
The table displays the recipient of the Purple Cap.
On Sunday, Prasidh Krishna from the Gujarat Titans (GT) claimed his 21st wicket, while CSK’s Noor Ahmad also reached that milestone with a return of 1 for 42 from three overs against RR. However, Noor’s higher economy rate and average kept him behind Prasidh on the table. While Prasidh holds an economy rate of 7.85 and an average of 17.57, Noor’s figures sit at 8.41 and 18.42 respectively.

Despite not participating in a match for Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) since April 27 due to a shoulder injury, Josh Hazlewood remains in third place with 18 wickets. Tonight’s game between Mumbai Indians (MI) and Delhi Capitals (DC), where Trent Boult has the opportunity to overtake Hazlewood and move closer to the top of the leaderboard, may be affected by rain.
Table of Orange Caps
Should the MI vs DC match proceed and continue for a significant duration, Suryakumar Yadav has the opportunity to narrow the gap towards the top three on the Orange Cap leaderboard. Currently ranked fourth with 510 runs, Suryakumar is still more than 100 runs behind table-topper B Sai Sudharsan of GT, who boasts 617 runs, while Shubman Gill in second place also has a considerable lead ahead of Suryakumar with 610 runs. In third place is Yashasvi Jaiswal of RR, who contributed 36 runs off just 19 balls in their victory against CSK and currently holds a total of 559 runs.
