CSK vs MI Live Score Updates, IPL 2023: MI Look To Settle Score Against CSK | Cricket News

CSK vs MI, Live Score: Strong spin department

There have been calls for playing Mitchell Santner in the XI as he can be handy with the bat apart from his bowling exploits but it remains to be seen if the team would bring him in for either Moeen or Theekshana. Young pacer Matheesha Pathirana has been doing a good job and the MI batters would be wary of the Lankan slinger come Saturday.

The bowling department has been boosted with the return of Deepak Chahar. However, bowlers like Tushar Deshpande (17 wickets, economy rate: 12.11 ) leaking runs despite picking up wickets has hurt the team’s cause. Jadeja, who has been brilliant with the ball though not so with the bat, like always would be key for CSK along with fellow spinners Maheesh Theekshana and Moeen Ali.

The talismanic Dhoni, batting way too low down the order, has smacked a few out of the park to boost the score. However, as many wonder, it remains a mystery as to why the out of form Rayudu and Ravindra Jadeja bat ahead of him. Rahane was in brilliant form as CSK won the first game in Mumbai and would be raring to do an encore here.

Their confidence low after earning just a point from the last three games, Chennai Super Kings will look to get their campaign back on track. CSK head into Saturday’s game on the back of a rained off fixture (vs LSG) and two losses. Having endured a defeat at the hands of Punjab Kings in a last-ball thriller on April 30, CSK will hope their fortunes change in the second afternoon match at home.
