CSK vs MI Live Score: Mumbai Indians bank on Wankhede crowd to win El Clasico of IPL, avoid BOTTOM-PLACE finish – Follow IPL 2022 Live Updates

Opener Devon Conway is in sublime form and has hit three back-to-back half centuries. He tore apart the Delhi Capitals attack with his whirlwind 87 and would need to provide an aggressive start with fellow opener Ruturaj Gaikwad, who too has found form but can be more consistent.

The season got worse for Ravindra Jadeja who was left out for the last game against Delhi due to an injury after handing back the captaincy to Dhoni. It remains to be seen if he is back in action against Mumbai.

If CSK have to post a big score, like they did against DC, all batters will have to fire in unison. Last time when the two sides met, a vintage Dhoni, ‘the best finisher’ sealed the game on the last ball of the game.

CSK bowlers were right on the money when they bundled DC for 117. Tweaker Moeen Ali picked three wickets, while young pacers Mukesh Choudhary and Simarjeet Singh also fared well.

For Mumbai, all the remaining games are ‘dead rubbers’ and they would need to give a ‘complete performance’ with an improved batting show.

Skipper Rohit Sharma (200 runs) will need to lead from the front and Ishan Kishan (321 runs) can build on his half century in the last game. MI’s middle order batters, which crumbled against KKR, will also need to get the act right.
