Mumbai Indians vs Chennai Super Kings prediction

After four successive defeats, the Mumbai Indians managed to hammer the Gujarat Titans by 99 runs the other day with an excellent bowling performance led by Ashwani Kumar, hitting 4-24 after an unbeaten century hit by Tilak Varma.

The Chennai Super Kings had enjoyed back-to-back victories before they then succumbed to a slender defeat to the Sunrisers Hyderabad, with CSK slowing down in their chase towards the end with frustrating innings from Dewald Brevis and Jamie Overton.

CSK have some firepower at the top but MI remain a more well-rounded side with an attack that consists of Jasprit Bumrah, the aforementioned Kumar as well as Allah Ghazanfar. With that confidence boosting hammering, too, Mumbai will fancy themselves again here.
