MI vs CSK Match Preview

On Sunday night, the Mumbai Indians (MI) will face the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Wankhede Stadium in IPL 2025 match 38.

CSK, on the other hand, is near the bottom with only two wins from seven games and hasn't looked like one another this season. Having said that, they'll take whatever momentum they can get from their last victory. These two have endured some thrilling contests over the years, but based on current form, MI appear to be the stronger team this time.

Top Picks – Chennai Super Kings

• Shaik Rasheed – Shaik Rasheed opened against LSG and gave them the start they were looking for—27 off 19 balls in the powerplay.

MI vs CSK Probable Winners:

This one will come down on which team gets the most out of its batting lineup. Chennai Super Kings have the most dynamic batting order on paper, and they will be salivating at the prospect of batting at Wankhede. However, as IPL 2025 has demonstrated, they have also thrown it away with reckless shots and unexpected collapses. However, when it clicks—as it did in their previous outing—they can annihilate any attack under these batting-friendly conditions. Mumbai, however, has Bumrah and Boult in sync, making things difficult for CSK. MI's bowlers look sharp, and their hitters are also improving. Considering the team combination, Mumbai Indians is expected to win this match.
