Five-time champion Mumbai Indians will face four-time champion Chennai Super Kings today in the 33rd match of IPL 2022. This match is also called \'El Clasico\' of IPL, as both are the most successful teams in the league. El Clasico is a Spanish word, which means excellent. In Spanish football, the Barcelona–Real Madrid match is called El Clásico, as both are La Liga\'s most successful clubs. However, the form of Mumbai and Chennai this season has not been special and both the teams are present at the bottom of the points table. Chennai is in the ninth position and Mumbai in the 10th position.
In such a situation, Mumbai is in danger of being out of season. Another defeat this season could create more problems for the team\'s future. Mumbai Indians have lost six of their six matches so far. At the same time, the difficulties are not less for Chennai too. The team may have won one match, but has also lost five matches. This team will also have to win all its matches from now on, or else it will be out of the playoff race for the second time after 2020.
A total of 34 matches have been played between the two teams so far. Out of this, Mumbai has won 20 matches and Chennai has won 14 matches. The last match between the two teams was played on 19 September 2021 in Dubai. Chennai won this match by 20 runs. CSK\'s team will go on to win the second consecutive match against Mumbai.
At the same time, out of the last five matches between the two teams, Chennai has won two and Mumbai has won three matches. However, till this season the captain of Chennai used to be Mahendra Singh Dhoni, while now the captain of the team is Ravindra Jadeja. Mumbai\'s team has also undergone many changes after the mega auction and the team is still looking for the right playing combination.
Talking about Chennai Super Kings, the bowling of the team has been very bad this season. The bowlers of the team either give a lot of runs from the beginning or lose their grip on the match by looting runs in the death overs. In the last match against Gujarat Titans, for a time, Chennai\'s team was leading in the match, but Rashid Khan overturned the match by scoring 25 runs in an over from Chris Jordan.
After this Gujarat won the match. Chennai\'s team could not even defend the target of 200 plus this season. In such a situation, captain Jadeja can make changes in the playing-11 today and give a chance to South African all-rounder Dwayne Pretorius in place of Jordan. Dwayne Bravo and Mukesh Chowdhary are bowling well. At the same time, the spin department of the team is strong in the form of Mahesh Teekshana and captain Jadeja.
Chennai\'s team\'s performance in batting has been excellent and the team has been able to touch the 200 plus mark twice. Robin Uthappa and Shivam Dubey are in excellent form. At the same time, in the last match, Rituraj Gaikwad and Ambati Rayudu also indicated their return to form. In such a situation, if the top four of the team bat well, then they can achieve any target. There are three explosive batsmen in the lower order the form of Jadeja, Dhoni, and Bravo. All of them have to bat well against Mumbai.
Probable Playing XI for Chennai: Rituraj Gaikwad, Robin Uthappa, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Shivam Dube, MS Dhoni (wk), Ravindra Jadeja (c), Dwayne Pretorius, Dwayne Bravo, Mahesh Teekshana, Mukesh Choudhary.
At the same time, if we talk about Mumbai\'s team, MI has not yet been able to selec the right playing-11. Sometimes the bowling of the team and sometimes the batting is getting weak. Both the openers Ishan Kishan and Rohit Sharma are running in poor form and have not been able to play any big innings so far. At the same time, the entire responsibility of the team falls on the shoulders of young Devald Brevis, Tilak Verma, and Suryakumar.
In the absence of any one of these, the Mumbai team is not able to score big or achieve big targets. Many former cricketers, including Shane Watson, have cited the poor selection of the team as a major reason for the defeat in the mega auction. The performance of the Mumbai bowlers has also not been special. Tymal Mills and Jasprit Bumrah have failed to take wickets. At the same time, the spin department of the team is also weak.
Mumbai\'s Probable Playing-11: Ishan Kishan (wk), Rohit Sharma (c), Deviled Brevis, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Verma, Kieron Pollard, Fabian Allen, Jaydev Unadkat, Murugan Ashwin, Jasprit Bumrah, Tymal Mills.
