With both teams holding five IPL titles each, the rivalry between CSK and MI is fierce and enduring. However, this time, there’s a twist as both teams have undergone leadership changes. Hardik Pandya now leads MI, while Ruturaj Gaikwad has taken over the reins from Dhoni at CSK.
In the highly anticipated clash between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI), all eyes are on Mahendra Singh Dhoni as he inches closer to a significant milestone. Just 25 runs away from becoming the leading run-scorer in the CSK vs MI rivalry in IPL history, Dhoni’s bat holds the potential to rewrite the record books.

CSK vs MI rivalry intensifies
The match promises to be a thrilling encounter, with CSK’s bowlers facing a tough challenge against MI’s formidable batting lineup. MI’s batters have been in exceptional form, posting massive scores, including a stunning 230 against Delhi Capitals and a near-200 chase against Royal Challengers Bangalore.
MI, after a shaky start, seems to have found their groove, with players like Suryakumar Yadav delivering blistering performances. For CSK’s bowling unit, accustomed to slower, spin-friendly tracks, adapting to the flat, high-scoring surfaces at Wankhede will be a test.
