THE LOWDOWN

MUMBAI INDIANS

  • Mumbai Indians remain rooted to the bottom of the IPL table and without in a win after six matches played, an alarming statistic to say the least for the most successful franchise in IPL history.
  • Key players out of form in regards to both runs and wickets has to be considered one of the biggest factors for their struggles such as skipper Rohit Sharma with the bat and pacer Jasprit Bumrah with the ball although his economy rate against Lucknow this past Saturday was impressive, however, 18-year-old Dewald Brevis has impressed with his power hitting.

CHENNAI SUPER KINGS

  • Chennai Super Kings failed to back up their win over Royal Challengers Bangalore, although they put in an admirable effort against the high-flying Gujarat Titans, ultimately losing by just three wickets with one ball remaining in the match.
  • It has been evident how much CSK have improved across their last couple of games and opener Ruturaj Gaikwad scoring 73 last time out, his first meaningful innings for Chennai this year bodes well for them going forward.

THE PREDICTION

For Mumbai Indians, it’s hard to put your finger on where the next win is coming from. Confidence within their camp is clearly low as is momentum, whilst they clearly don’t know their best starting line-up. Add that to such reliable international players like Rohit and Kieron Pollard not making the impact they would normally hope and it has led to this awful run of results. Chennai Super Kings however, have shown significant signs of improvement even in spite of losing against Gujarat and provided they can maintain the level of performance shown across their last two matches, then a victory for Ravindra Jadeja’s side may well be on the cards here.
