Over the years, Mumbai and Chennai have been headlined by a number of superstars, including Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, Kieron Pollard, MS Dhoni, Suresh Raina and Ravindra Jadeja. The start of a new three-year cycle means that both franchises have ushered in a new era.
Rohit will turn 35 by the end of this month, while Dhoni has already handed over the reins to Jadeja. An inevitable transition beckons for both franchises and such a period usually comes with performances where teams blow hot and cold.
Both Mumbai and CSK have experienced more of the same thus far, but have also had a couple of young Indian players step to the fore. While Tilak Varma has shown maturity beyond his age for Mumbai, Shivam Dube has been Chennai’s best batter thus far in IPL 2022.
