Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians, IPL 2022, Today Match Prediction 12 May 2022

csk vs mi Match Prediction & Analysis

IPL2022 has come to business end with teams giving their tooth and nails to finish inside the top-4 of the points table to qualify for the play-offs. CSK and MI are the top two teams in the IPL history sharing 9 of the 13 trophies and twice apiece in the last 4 seasons. But they both are languishing ta the bottom of the points table this season with MI already out of play-offs while CSK are hanging by the barest of the margins albeit other results favoring them. Despite all these, there is never a dull moment when these two archrivals take the field, and we expect yet another thrilling action-packed contest in this match.

TEAMS PREVIEW

Chennai Super Kings Preview

CSK`s batting has found a rejuvenated energy with the arrival of Devon Conway who scored three fifties and has shared good partnerships with Ruturaj Gaikwad at the top. Shivam Dube, Ambati Rayudu, and Robin Uthappa have played good knocks but are not consistent across matches. MS Dhoni has been in good rhythm in the final overs and ids giving crucial runs with the bat.

Youngsters Mukesh Chowdary and Simranjeet Singh are taking care of the powerplay overs, and they both took 2 wickets each in the last game. Maheesh Theekshana has been CSK`s go-to bowler this season and Moeen Ali has claimed 5 wickets in last 2 matches making the ball talk. Dwayne Bravo returned after injury and was at his usual best with slower balls and variations.

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

Mumbai will have hot and humid climate with chances of dew settling down in the latter stages of the match. However, no weather interruptions in the match are expected.

Venue Details

Wankhede has been the best pitch with good carry and bounce among the 3 venues this season. We expect batters to take toll on bowlers if they well set. Spinners might play a big role in middle overs. We expect runs to be around 160-180 runs in this match.

Toss: To Bat

Pitches are starting to slow down owing to the wear and tear and teams batting first are winning matches recently with 7-3 win-loss record in last 10 matches. We expect both captains to bat first in this match.

CSK vs MI
Winning Prediction

CSK has a strong batting unit, but their inconsistency of the middle order is a big worry for them. They have an excellent bowling attack manned by the master MSD behind the stumps effectively. The fitness and form of their premier all-rounder Ravi Jadeja is a big worry for CSK. MI has been very pathetic this season with batter and bowlers not able to contribute as a team effectively. They will be looking to end CSK`s campaign with a win in this match. We expect CSK to win this match owing to their better team morale and form recently.
