CSK vs MI, Live Score: Pitch report

‘It’s a pretty big ground, but there is a short boundary at one side (61m), the other square boundary is at 70m and the straight boundary is 73m. The pitch is hard as a rock, the cracks are less this time around, it’s a high-scoring ground this year with a lot of 200+ scores. It’s a good batting pitch, but it’ll be a touch slow and a touch low, especially against the brand new ball. It’s sweaty and overcast, so the captain winning the toss would want to bat second,’ reckon Pommie Mbangwa and Aaron Finch, in his pitch report.

Here’s what we think could be Chennai Super Kings’ Playing XI against Mumbai Indians. Read here. 

CSK vs MI, Live Score: Archer will look for redemption

The return of Jofra Archer augurs well for Mumbai but he would need to pick wickets while the onus would be on the other bowlers to be economical.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: MI’s lethal form

Mumbai Indians, after a sluggish start, have slowly gathered momentum, chasing down tall scores. However, the bowlers’ inability to curtail opposition batters would be a cause of worry for skipper Rohit Sharma, who himself has been short of runs.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: Strong spin department

There have been calls for playing Mitchell Santner in the XI as he can be handy with the bat apart from his bowling exploits but it remains to be seen if the team would bring him in for either Moeen or Theekshana. Young pacer Matheesha Pathirana has been doing a good job and the MI batters would be wary of the Lankan slinger come Saturday.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: CSK’s bowling lineup

The bowling department has been boosted with the return of Deepak Chahar. However, bowlers like Tushar Deshpande (17 wickets, economy rate: 12.11 ) leaking runs despite picking up wickets has hurt the team’s cause. Jadeja, who has been brilliant with the ball though not so with the bat, like always would be key for CSK along with fellow spinners Maheesh Theekshana and Moeen Ali.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: Dhoni’s brilliance

The talismanic Dhoni, batting way too low down the order, has smacked a few out of the park to boost the score. However, as many wonder, it remains a mystery as to why the out of form Rayudu and Ravindra Jadeja bat ahead of him. Rahane was in brilliant form as CSK won the first game in Mumbai and would be raring to do an encore here.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: Brilliant middle order

While the experienced Ajinkya Rahane has pulled his weight as has Shivam Dube, CSK will be hope Ambati Rayudu and Moeen Ali can rise to the occasion as the tournament winds down towards the business end.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: Strong opening pair of CSK

Devon Conway (414 runs) and Ruturaj Gaikwad (354 runs) have provided strong starts but the middle-order has not been able to build on them on occasions, leaving the think-tank and fans flummoxed.

CSK vs MI, Live Score: CSK aim for comeback

Their confidence low after earning just a point from the last three games, Chennai Super Kings will look to get their campaign back on track. CSK head into Saturday’s game on the back of a rained off fixture (vs LSG) and two losses. Having endured a defeat at the hands of Punjab Kings in a last-ball thriller on April 30, CSK will hope their fortunes change in the second afternoon match at home.
