Cricket Match Preview:
Chennai Super Kings (CSK), led by MS Dhoni, will take on their archrivals Mumbai Indians (MI), led by Rohit Sharma, for the second time in this year’s Indian Premier League (IPL). CSK have already reached the playoff spot and have their eyes set on the top two finish after the group stage. MI, on the other hand, look set to reach the playoff as well but are not there yet.
All of CSK’s pieces seem to be coming together just at the right time. While it was skipper MS Dhoni who carried the team on his shoulder till the last cricket game, their out of form opener Shane Watson got back to his best and hammered Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) bowlers in Chennai in the last cricket game. Now, with almost all of their batsmen back in form, they are looking like a well-oiled machine.
MI are just two wins away from sealing the playoff spot. They have four cricket games still left in the kitty and are real favourites to reach the top two spots as well. They have had an upper hand over CSK for quite a while now. In fact, in the last five cricket games, they have won four cricket games against them. They will now be taking them on in Chennai and it will not be easy to win the game of cricket there.
The main reason behind the poor performance of CSK against MI has been the bowling performances of the latter. MI have bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, who is known to hit the hard lengths that prove to be difficult for the batsmen of CSK to get away. Apart from Watson and Faf du Plessis, all other CSK batsmen are not great against short bowling and this has been hurting CSK in their games against MI.
It is going to be another exciting cricket game between the two sides. While the first half of this competition was ruled by CSK, the latter half of these battles have been one-sided towards MI. With passionate fans, both sides will look to be at top of their game and come out trump.
Cricket Match Information:
CSK will take on MI for the second time in this year’s IPL. While CSK are at the number one position on the points table, MI are at the third position. CSK have already sealed the playoff spot and will be looking to finish in top two spot, whereas MI’s focus will be to reach the playoff spot at this stage.
