MI VS CSK: 3 Best Player Battles to Watch Out for in the El Classico of TATA IPL 2023.

The MI VS CSK games are bound to be high-intensity matches. Both teams have the best players and have a legacy associated with them. Over the years, we have seen both teams lock horns and have some of the most memorable matches. We have seen interesting player battles like Jasprit Bumrah VS MS Dhoni, and we have also seen Kieron Pollard VS Dwayne Bravo. Not to forget Suresh Raina VS Lasith Malinga and Hardik Pandya VS Ravindra Jadeja. These are players that have bought the brand value of the IPL. So, which are the key battles this time around in the MI VS CSK game? Here is an in-depth look:

Jofra Archer VS Ruturaj Gaikwad will be on Display in the MI VS CSK game:

Jofra Archer will test the young blood of Ruturaj Gaikwad. It will be great to see Gaikwad handle the express pace that he hasn?t seen in the domestic circuit. The Indian domestic bowlers' bowl at 135 kmph at the maximum. But Archer is clocking 145 to 150 clicks and this will test Gaikwad. Gaikwad on the other hand is in the form of his life.

He has had a great start to the TATA IPL. He has scored 149 runs so far. He has got the fifties in both the games that he has played. Jofra had a poor first game but will be keen to make a comeback. Ruturaj will be rooting to drive Archer through the covers in the MI VS CSK game on Sunday.

Rohit Sharma VS Moeen Ali will be on Display in the MI VS CSK Game:

It is a universal truth that Rohit Sharma struggles big time against spinners in the powerplay. Over the years, all the spinners have troubled him. Samuel Badree, Yuzi Chahal, and Kuldeep Yadav have dismissed him more than once in the powerplay. MS Dhoni, knowing this trick in the book, can certainly try Moeen Ali in the powerplay.

Moeen Ali has had two great games with the ball. He has grabbed 5 wickets so far. Ali is bowling in the right areas and the pitch will offer him help too. The game is going to be played at the Wankhede, the red soil pitch will offer turn and bounce to Ali. The MI VS CSK game will be great if we witness this conquest.

Suryakumar Yadav VS Deepak Chahar:

Suryakumar Yadav is not in the best phase of his career. After dominating the entire 2022 season, his trough has arrived. But Surya is a champion and he will certainly find a way out of this. Yadav generally doesn?t struggle against the Pacers as he likes it when the ball comes onto the bat. But the swing of Deepak Chahar can put him in a spot of bother.

Chahar dismissed him on a few occasions earlier. And with Chahar bowling at 130 to 135 kmph, Surya cannot play the ramp shots as they will end up in the hands of the third man or fine-leg. The way to get runs of Chahar is by driving him through the covers. But this gives them a chance for Chahar to earn his wicket by getting the edge. It will be a fierce contest between them in the MI VS CSK game.
