MI vs CSK Dream11 Prediction: The El Classico of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023, Mumbai Indians (MI) are slated to face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Wankhede Stadium in an epic fight between the two perennial champions. MI vs CSK contest is scheduled to be held on 8th April (Saturday), starting at 7:30 PM IST.
MI has had a knack for losing their opening fixture since IPL 2013 and they extended their unwanted record in the ongoing IPL 2023 as well. Mumbai’s opening game against RCB couldn’t even get close to being an exciting match. RCB made it look one-sided with their classy performance.
MI’s top order failed to muster runs against the RCB lineup and all the work was done by young Tilak Verma, who took MI to a competitive total with his sublime 84 runs knock from 46 deliveries. On the bowling front too, Rohit Sharma’s team couldn’t even match the brilliance of the opposition and leaked runs at regular intervals.
On the other side, Chennai Super Kings (CSK) saw havoc stirring in their den, Chepauk Stadium, when they faced Lucknow Super Giants (LSG), a couple of nights ago. The near-perfect outing for the Yellow brigade saw their batters tormenting Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) for 217 runs in 20 overs.
The impeccable batting outcome was followed by a match-winning bowling show and CSK got their maiden win of the season. With two points in two matches, CSK currently stands in the 6th position. On the other side, MI remains in the penultimate position with just one game held in their campaign.
MI has a couple of loopholes in its lineup, which are certainly going to hamper its run in the IPL 2023. Out of every issue they have, bowling remains their core concern. The absence of Jasprit Bumrah leaves a huge hole in the lineup, which is quite impossible to fill in. Besides Jofra Archer and Piyush Chawla, no other bowlers are experienced enough to lead the attack.
However, it remains to be seen how MI performs in their upcoming fixture against CSK at the Wankhede Stadium. For now, let’s look at the MI vs CSK Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Team, Probable XIs, Pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details IPL 2023.
