IPL 2021: Mumbai Indians (MI) are the odds-on favourite to win the IPL 2021 season. Again. This is an easy call, in every possible way.

They are the team with a solid and beefy aura of invincibility circling around them, something which Chennai Super Kings (CSK) used to have before troubles hit them hard last season.

“They are definitely qualifying,” Chopra said during a video posted on his YouTube channel.
“They (SRH) can also finish at either no-1 or n-2 in IPL 2021 standings. They are the only team that can challenge Mumbai Indians this season, if you compare both the teams on paper, player to player. I think this is going to be a great season for SRH.”
