Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians: Injured Lions Ready to Roar or Still Remain Soar?
CSK has had a very poor IPL 2025 so far. After winning their first match, they have lost five games in a row. Their score of 103/9 against KKR was their lowest ever at Chepauk and third-worst in IPL history. They have also lost three matches in a row at home for the first time. CSK struggled to score, going through many balls without hitting a boundary. KKR easily chased the target in just 10.1 overs. CSK’s form is not good, and they need to improve quickly to stay in the tournament.
Up till now, the only good thing for CSK is Noor Ahmad’s form. Young Afghani has clinched 12 wickets in the 5 matches with the purple cap in his name. Moreover, with MS Dhoni CSK again, the Kings will be hopeful to turn things around and secure a win finally.
On the other hand, Mumbai Indians have had a slow start to IPL 2025, winning just one of their first five matches and sitting eighth on the points table. Two of their four losses came by just 12 runs, showing how close they were to winning. The five-time champions believe a strong all-round performance can turn things around. Known for slow starts, MI is yet to hit peak form but remains hopeful for a big win ahead. Moreover, with Jasprit Bumrah back in the side, the Indians will regroup and start a chapter in the season.
