MI vs CSK, Match 33 of IPL 2022 Team News

Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings are two of the most successful teams in IPL history, however, this season has been nothing but a nightmare for the two teams. MI is yet to get going on the points table, on the other hand, CSK has managed only a solitary win from 6 games so far. Both teams are in desperate need of a win.

CSK need to find balance in their bowling lineup. CSK is desperately missing the services of their most expensive buy of this season Deepak Chahar. Chahar won’t be available for the entire season due to a back injury and this news has dented CSK’s bowling for good. Ravindra Jadeja & Co need to find a perfect combination in the bowling unit if they want to go deep in the tournament.

Moeen Ali’s form is a big concern. Moeen Ali has been ineffective throughout the season. CSK spent 8 Crores in retaining the English all-rounder, but Ali is yet to reap dividends. Mitchell Santner is another spin bowling all-rounder in the ranks and a lackluster form of Ali might tempt the team management to go for Santner.

CSK Playing 11

Chris Jordan went for plenty in the last game. He was the main culprit in CSK’s defeat against GT in the last game. If Adam Milne is fit to feature, the Kiwi express pacer might replace the Englishmen in the eleven. Otherwise, Dwaine Pretorius, who didn’t do anything wrong to face the axe from the eleven for Jordan might replace the latter.
