IPL 2023: Mumbai Indians vs Chennai Super Kings, 12th Match IPL 2023

ipl-2023-mumbai-indians-vs-chennai-super-kings-12th-match-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:



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Jofra Archer VS Ruturaj Gaikwad will be on Display in the MI VS CSK game:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Jofra-Archer.jpg" alt="MI VS CSK Jofra Archer" class="wp-image-98138" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Archer did make a comeback, but he was nowhere near the Archer of 2019. IMG SRC: Mumbai Indians.</figcaption></figure>



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.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Rohit Sharma VS Moeen Ali will be on Display in the MI VS CSK Game:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/Moeen-Ali-CSK-1.jpg" alt="MI VS CSK TATA IPL 2023 Moeen Ali" class="wp-image-87141" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Moeen Ali Spun a web against the Lucknow Super Giants. He bagged 4 wickets. IMG SRC: CSK</figcaption></figure>



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.



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Suryakumar Yadav VS Deepak Chahar:</h2>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="http://www.icccricketschedule.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/Suryakumar-Yadav_11zon-2-1024x576.jpeg" alt="Suryakumar Yadav MI VS CSK" class="wp-image-105712" /><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Post a string of ducks in the recently concluded India VS Australia ODI series, Surya is looking to get back in the groove. IMG SRC: BCCI</figcaption></figure>



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.

IPL 2024 Points Table: Five time IPL winners Mumbai Indians on Thursday, 11th April, defeated the Royal Challengers Bengaluru by seven wickets and registered their second victory of the 2024 Tata Indian Premier League. Chasing a big total of 197 runs, the Mumbai-based team rode on the back of some quick half centuries of Ishan Kishan and Suryakumar Yadav as they helped MI end the match in less than 16 overs. Ishan brought up his half century in 23 balls and stiched a 101-run opening partnership with skipper Rohit Sharma for the first wicket.



RCB seamer Akash Deep broke the partnership by dismissing Ishan Kishan for 69 runs. Rohit got dismissed as well after scoring 38 runs but the World's number one T20i batter Suryakumar Yadav took the responsibility in his own hands and scored 52 runs in 19 balls before Vijaukumat Vyshak got the better of him. The duo of Tilak Verma and Hardik Pandya helped Mumbai defeat RCB in just&nbsp;15.3&nbsp;overs.



Earlier in the match, fifties from captain Faf Du Plessis, Dinesh Karthik and Rajat Patidar helped the Bengaluru based team recover from a very poor start and post an excellent total of 196-8 on the board.



Having been put to bat first by Hardik Pandya, Bengaluru were struggling at 23-2 in the first five overs as they lost Virat Kohli and Will Jacks in quick succession. Rajat Patidar and Faf steading things up for the visitors as they got involved in an 82 runs partnership for the third wicket. But Gerald Coetzee broke the partnership as he dismissed Rajat Patidar for 50 runs and Shreyas Gopal sent Glenn Maxwell back to the pavilion for a duck which reduced Bengaluru to 108-4.

Faf Du Plessis was the next man to depart, as Jasprit Bumrah dismissed him for 61 runs, but he shared a key stand of 45 runs with Dinesh Karthik.



But DK remained at the crease till the 20th over and played a brilliant unbeaten knock of 53 runs in 23 deliveries and helped his side post 196 runs on the board.



Mumbai's lead bowler Jasprit Bumrah played an important role with the ball as he took a five wicket haul and gave away just 21 runs in his quota of four overs.

IPL 2024 Points Table: RCB got its sixth defeat of the season

ipl-2024-points-table-rcb-got-its-sixth-defeat-of-the-season

Reigning champions Chennai Super Kings secured an easy 20 runs victory in a high scoring game against arch rivals Mumbai Indians in the 29th match of the 2024 Tata Indian Premier League on 14th April.



The game took place at the iconic Wankhede Stadium of Mumbai and the duo of skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad (69 runs in 40 balls) and Shivam Dube (66*runs in 38 balls)&nbsp; played brilliant knocks before the legendary MS Dhoni entertained the completely packed Wankhede crowd with three consecutive maximums off the bowling of Hardik Pandya in the final over of the CSK inning as the visitors posted a competitive total of 206-4.



In reply, Rohit Sharma (105*runs in 63 balls) brought up his second IPL century and shared a couple of good partnerships with wicket - keeper batter Ishan Kishan (23 runs 15 balls) and Tilak Verma (31 runs in 20 balls). But, the Mumbai based franchise fell short by 20 runs as they failed to find an answer to the brilliance of CSK pacer Matheesha Pathirana (4-28).



Interestingly, the El Clasico between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings on 14th April was the only match the two rivals were scheduled to play against each other for now as no other matches are scheduled to take place between them in the league phase.



<h6 class="wp-block-heading">Why are CSK and MI going to play against each other just once in IPL 2024? Explanation of the IPL 2024 format.</h6>

Reigning champions Chennai Super Kings (Group B) and Mumbai Indians (Group A) have been allotted different groups in IPL 2024. According to the scheduling format, each team will play a total of eight matches against the other teams of their group (Home and Away).



On the other hand, teams will play just one game in the league phase against four teams of the other group and two matches against the fifth team of that particular group. In the case of the Mumbai Indians, they are scheduled to play two games against the IPL 2016 winners Sunrisers Hyderabad.



Keeping in mind the regulations of the format, fierce rivals Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians are not going to play any other match against each other at least in the league phase. We might get an opportunity to witness yet another clash between the two rivals if they qualify for the playoffs.

Why MI and CSK are playing only one game against each other in IPL 2024?

why-mi-and-csk-are-playing-only-one-game-against-each-other-in-ipl-2024

Just three months are left for the start of The 2025 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) and many teams are still searching for their new captains. Three time runners-up Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) is one of them and they had taken the big call of releasing their skipper Faf Du Plessis ahead of the Mega-Auction. 
They didn't even buy him in the auction and this means that they are in search of a new captain. A captain who can potentially help them win their maiden IPL Trophy. 
Ahead of the upcoming IPL season, a new update has come out regarding the next captain of the franchise. According to some news reports, hard hitting Indian batter Rajat Patidar is likely to become the next skipper of the Bengaluru based team. Before this update, some rumours were suggesting that the RCB team management want Virat Kohli to lead the team again but the franchise has not given any official update yet regarding the same. 
<h2>Patidar was captaining this team in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy tournament</h2>
Rajat Patidar was recently seen leading the team of Madhya Pradesh (MP) in India's Domestic T20 league, Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy. He led his team in a fantastic way and helped them reach the final of the tournament. However, he wasn't able to help MP lift the trophy. 
In the previous edition of the SMAT, the 31-year-old performed in a brilliant manner with the bat, scoring three quickfire fifties. He's in good form at present and he will be expected to once again show his aggressive batting nature in the IPL and possibly help RCB lift their maiden IPL Trophy. 
Ahead of the Mega-Auction, a lot of websites were claiming that Kohli will be seen donning the captain's hat once again for Bengaluru but since no action has been taken by the franchise, a new rumour is being spread that Patidar will become the new skipper of the franchise. It will be interesting to see who ends up becoming the next captain of the three-time runner's up in the 18th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL).

The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have still not announced their new skipper yet for IPL 2025 and as the tournament approaches closer and closer, the franchise will have to act on a quick note

IPL: This player might become the new captain of RCB, was seen captaining in Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy

After the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, the focus of the cricket world will shift to the ICC Champions Trophy. India had a horrible last few months, where they lost a home series to New Zealand and now lost the BGT trophy as well.
Hence, India can erase all the bad memories by winning the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. But most of the Indian players are not in good form, which will be a big headache for the management. That can be one reason that we might see some surprise pick in the Indian squad.
India's premier ODI tournament, the Vijay Hazare Trophy, is underway, where some brilliant performances have been recorded until now. Hence, we might see some inclusions on the basis of that form. Below, we will talk about three potential names that can make it into the Indian squad after doing well in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25.
<h2>Three players who can join the ICC Champions Trophy squad on their good performances in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25</h2>
3. Varun Chakravarthy
India will play their matches in Dubai, where spinners do pretty well. Kuldeep Yadav is not completely fit, and India will need some mystery in their spin. That's where they can add Varun Chakravarthy. The 33-year-old recently made his comeback in T20Is after doing well in the IPL.
Since his return, he has taken 17 wickets in seven T20Is. Even in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25, he is doing pretty well. Varun has taken 13 wickets in five games at an economy rate of 4.05. Hence, if India don't have the option of Kuldeep, they can look for Varun with his mystery spin.
2. Arshdeep Singh
There is news that India might add Arshdeep Singh to the squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The left-arm pacer is India's premier bowler in the T20I format but has played only 8 ODIs since his debut in November 22. But he has been performing pretty well in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25.
Arshdeep has taken more wickets in the tournament so far. He has 17 wickets in just six games with two four-wicket hauls and one fifer. He can swing the ball and also bowl in the final overs. There is already concern over the availability of Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami. That's why Arshdeep can be a perfect guy for the team.
1. Abhishek Sharma
The Punjab opener Abhishek Sharma has been on fire in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. The left-handed opener, who is part of India's T20I setup, is known for his aggressive skills and has capitalized on them in the ongoing tournament.
He has scored 448 runs in seven innings at an average of 64 and an incredible strike rate of 130.99. He is also a pretty handy spinner and can be useful in the UAE. India can look at him as a possible backup opener and add him into the squad.

India will play their first game of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 on February 20 against Bangladesh at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai.

3 Surprise players who can be picked for India's Champions Trophy 2025 squad after doing well in Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25

India fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah's fitness is one of the trending topics in Indian cricket. The speedster experienced back spasms during the last Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25, which took place at the Sydney Cricket Ground in Sydney. 
After bowling just 10 overs in the first innings in Sydney, Jasprit Bumrah walked off the field and underwent scans. He didn't take the field again as India was without their captain in the last innings of the match. This no doubt cost India but also sent a sense of scare among the Indian fans. 
Jasprit Bumrah didn't look in great shape either, and now his fitness has raised massive concerns over his availability for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. This is because there is no clarity over the seriousness of the injury that the premier fast bowler has faced in his back during the match. 
As per the reports in Sports Tak, it is learned that Jasprit Bumrah will be consulting a personal doctor as well along with the BCCI medical team. The fast bowler will be having a chat with the doctor in New Zealand who operated on him during the back surgery he faced in 2022. 
It is learned once Jasprit Bumrah meets that doctor, there will be a lot of clarity over his injury. It will be the doctor only who will be deciding what the fast bowler has to do to return to action. This raises a lot of concern over his fitness, especially with big events like the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. 
<h2>Jasprit Bumrah is all set to be rested for the three-match ODI series against England.</h2>
Bumrah is all set to be rested for the three-match ODI series against England. This is because BCCI wanted the fast bowler to be fit and be at 100% for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. If the pacer remains unfit for the tournament, it will turn out to be a big blow for the team. 
The pain in the back for Jasprit Bumrah arises due to his workload in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The fast bowler bowled 151 overs in the five games and picked 32 wickets. He gave his best for the side but ended up on the wrong side of the result. However, more than that his fitness was the main concern. 
Bumrah is very unlikely to play any T20I game this year, meaning that he won't be part of the T20I series against England. Another section of the reports added that he might play one ODI against Three Lions to get into the rhythm for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

India spinner Varun Chakravarthy is in contention to be picked in the Indian squad for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. As per the reports in RevSportz, it is learned that the BCCI has asked the selectors to keep an eye on the Kolkata Knight Riders spinner. 
Varun Chakravarthy has impressed the selectors and the BCCI with the way he made his comeback in the Indian setup after the IPL 2024. The mystery spinner set the stage on fire with the ball in the T20Is against Bangladesh as well as South Africa. 
In both series, Varun Chakravarthy turned out to be the game-changer for India. The mystery spinner helped India win both the series and was the key performer for the team. He was applauded a lot by fans and pundits for the way he made a comeback to India. 
The BCCI reportedly has told one of the selectors to watch the fitness, moments and progress of Varun Chakravarthy, who is playing in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. The India spinner has been shining with the ball in the domestic tournament, making his case strong for the team. 
Varun Chakravarthy is making strong performances for Tamil Nadu in the ongoing Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. The spinner has taken 13 wickets at an average of 13.62 in the tournament so far, and with the way he is going strong, he surely would've taken the interest of selectors. 
<h2>The Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be announced next week</h2>
The Indian team for the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 is all set to be announced next week. Before the tournament, India will be taking on England in the three-match ODI series. There are chances that Varun might be picked for that series. 
The mystery spinner is yet to make his debut for India in the ODIs. But with the kind of form he is going through, there are high chances that he might be picked in the England series and might even play in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025.

ICC Champions Trophy 2025: BCCI orders selectors to keep an eye on this KKR spinner for CT

Jasprit Bumrah has become the biggest match-winner for Team India across all three formats. He has been at the peak of his skills, and he has taken the graph of his performance to a whole new level. After winning the Man of the Tournament award in India's successful campaign in the T20 World Cup 2024, he recently ended as the top wicket-taker for India in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.
Bumrah ended with a record 32 wickets in five tests at an exceptional average of 13.06. But his performance went in vain as Australia won the series 3-1, and Australia regained the BGT trophy. Bumrah sustained a back spasm and didn't bowl in the second innings. That has raised concern in the Indian camp. There is no official update on his injury, and India might look to give them a proper rest.
But the biggest question is on his availability in the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy 2025. The upcoming event will start in five weeks time on February 19, and Jasprit Bumrah will be India's key man. India can't afford to miss him. But with his career on the line, India won't take a risk to hurry him. So, who will be the bowlers who can replace him for India, if he gets ruled out?
<h2>Three bowlers whom India can pick as Jasprit Bumrah's replacement if he gets ruled out of the ICC Champions Trophy 2025</h2>
1. Arshdeep Singh
Arshdeep Singh has become India's go-to bowler in the T20I format, and he took the most wickets in the T20 World Cup 2024. He played a crucial role along with Bumrah in India's triumph. But since his ODI debut in November 2022, he has played only 8 ODIs. But with the way he is going, India will certainly want to cash in on his form and bring the freshness of his left-arm swing to the table for the coming event.
2. Prasidh Krishna
Prasidh Krishna is another good option to have. He played in the fifth and final test at the SCG and took six wickets in the match. He has good pace, and his tall figure helps him to get bounce from the surface. India will play their matches in Dubai, where you want a bowler like him that can bounce the batter out. Krishna has an incredible ODI record as well. He has played 17 matches and taken 29 wickets at an average of 25.28. He can also be a good replacement for Jasprit Bumrah.
3. Mayank Yadav
India have three group matches, and then there are two more if they qualify for the finals. That means there can be a maximum of five games with proper rest in between the games. That is where India can unleash the raw pace of Mayank Yadav. The 22-year-old superstar made his name in the IPL 2025 for his sheer pace, which earned him his T20I debut. He has four wickets in three T20Is for India. Though he has not played an ODI game for India, he can be a great asset for the side. He can add his extra pace to the bowling unit of India, which will add new dimensions to the Indian attack.

Jasprit Bumrah didn't bowl in the final innings of the fifth test at SCG due to a back spasm. He is likely to miss the England series as well.
