In a blockbuster Sunday second match, the Mumbai Indians take on the Chennai Super Kings. The El-Clasico in IPL. Wankhede is ready for the clash. The national team won the World Cup at this Wankhede.
MS Dhoni returns to the Wankhede Stadium for the first time as a part of the CSK team, not captain.
Chennai Super Kings were the defending champions. Ruturaj Gaikwad is now leading the CSK team. The team’s morale is high following their victory over the Kolkata Knight Riders in their last encounter.
Rachin Ravindra, Ruturaj Gaikwad and Ravindra Jadeja are both in good form. The yellow brigade is looking for a massive win at Mumbai’s home field. They are now in third spot in the table. They are looking for a win to uplift their position.
Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, aim to continue their winning run at home. They did not start well in the initial matches. But they come back from Delhi Capitals (DC) matches.
In their previous game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB), they emerged victorious by seven wickets. They are now 7th spot in the table. A big-margin win lifts them to 6 or 5 spots.
