Match Preview
The IPL 2024 promises a blockbuster Sunday for cricket fanatics as the two best franchises are set to lock horns in the next fixture of the tournament. In the 29th encounter of the season, Mumbai Indians will host arch-rivals Chennai Super Kings in what is known as the ‘El-Clasico’ of the tournament. The match is set to take place on April 14, at the Wankhede Stadium. Mumbai Indians have had a disappointing start to the season, where they registered their first win after losing three back-to-back games.
Chennai, on the other hand, started on a great note and won two successive matches at home. However, the winning streak ended when they played their away matches. Ruturaj Gaikwad-led side was quick enough to regain their lost form and defeated KKR in their last match.
Toss Prediction
Mumbai Indians have played 36 games against Chennai Super Kings in the past editions of the Indian Premier League. If we talk about their last five matches, Chennai’s former skipper MS Dhoni emerged victorious in three tosses, while MI’s former skipper Rohit Sharma got lucky in two. Not only this, but the past five matches between CSK and MI followed an interesting pattern where the toss-winning team ended up winning the game.
However, considering the stats, it can be said that CSK captain Ruturaj Gaikwad would win the toss over Hardik Pandya.
Win Possibility
The clashes between MI and CSK have always been exciting and full of intense cricketing action. Both CSK and MI are the strongest teams in the IPL, considering they are the joint-most winners of the tournament, having won the trophy five times each. However, if we look at their head-to-head records, the teams have faced each other in 36 matches, where Mumbai have a slight edge over their counterparts with 20 wins .
In the current season, MI lost the first three matches but announced their arrival by winning two back-to-back matches. Apart from this, one cannot ignore the fact that MI are indomitable at the Wankhede. All the data and statistics make the Mumbai-based franchise favourites to win the upcoming game and extend their win tally.
Predicted Powerplay Score and Average First Inning Score
The upcoming match between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings is the fourth game of the IPL 2024 that the Wankhede Stadium will host. The stadium has hosted a total of 114 IPL matches in the past and has a first-inning average of 170 runs. In the upcoming match, the first-inning score is expected to be around 185-195. The powerplay score is likely to hover around 55-60.
