What Have The Two Teams Done So Far?
Chennai Super Kings had begun well with two wins from two games but over the next three matches they have won just one – and that came against Kolkata Knight Riders in their previous encounter. That places them third on the IPL 2024 points table.
On the other hand, Mumbai Indians had begun on a somber note, having registered three defeats in a row.
Since then, however, they have clinched successive victories against Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore to earn themselves a respectable seventh spot for now.
Quick MI vs CSK Preview
This is a rivalry that has the fans salivating most times. And the reason for that is the history associated with these two teams – both have won the title five times over the 16 seasons of the IPL, making them two most successful sides in the competition.
That being said, it must be quickly added that in more recent times, Chennai Super Kings have done better in the IPL. Take the 2023 edition in which CSK had gone on to win the title while Mumbai Indians came third.
In 2022, both teams floundered very badly but even then, Chennai finished ninth to Mumbai’s 10th – edged out on the net run-rate. Chennai had won the 2021 title as well, even as Mumbai failed to make the playoffs.
This time around, it looked like things were headed in a similar direction before Mumbai won back to back matches and Chennai lost two in a row.
Mumbai still trail Chennai on the points table but these are early days in the tournament and when you have teams of this heritage going up against each other there’s not much to choose from between the two teams.
