Divya Delhi:  CSK's great spinner Ravichandran Ashwin has expressed worry about the difficulties the bowlers are having in the 2025 IPL, speculating that they would soon require personal psychiatrists to handle the stress. His comments stem from the fact that the event uses batting-friendly surfaces, which make it harder for bowlers to keep runs under check. Ashwin feels bowling is getting almost difficult as four of the six games have turned into high-scoring affairs, including a startling 243-run total. According to the CSK spinner, bowlers face challenges in a competition dominated by strong batting performances. Ashwin has voiced his frustration with the bowlers' extreme struggles in IPL matches, saying that bowling has become "impossible" on certain grounds. He talked about how some locations nearly make it difficult to keep the stumps in use in a YouTube video. Using a recent match as an example, he pointed out that despite Chahal mixing full-tosses with Gujarat Titans' Sai Sudharsan, he only avoided singles. According to Ashwin, the odds are heavily in favor of the hitters, making it harder for bowlers to be efficient.
