CSK vs MI: MI eye revenge in El Classico battle against confident MS Dhoni-led CSK at Chepauk
CSK have slightly floundered after briefly topping the points table last week. The MS Dhoni-led side lost to PBKS while failing to defend a score over 200. In their previous match against LSG, CSK bowlers could not pick the bottom five wickets after they had LSG reeling at 44 for 5. Deepak Chahar’s return to the squad should solve the bowling woes of the side.
MI are on a roll after chasing two 200-plus scores against RR and PBKS. The batting has started to fire with Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav back amongst runs. Tim David and Tilak Varma have also finished games well for the side. Like CSK, MI’s bowling is slightly weak. Jofra Archer is yet to hit his straps, and MI would be hoping he gets back to his menacing ways.
