Match Overview
Mumbai Indians (MI) will look to avenge their defeat to arch-rivals Chennai Super Kings (CSK) from earlier in the Indian Premier League 2025 when the two teams clash at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday, April 20.
Mumbai started their campaign with four defeats from their first five games in IPL 2025. However, Hardik Pandya and Co. have been able to muster a comeback, having won their last two matches. In their most recent fixture, the five-time champions eased past Sunrisers Hyderabad at the Wankhede Stadium. After restricting Pat Cummins and Co. to 162/5, MI reached the target with four wickets and 11 balls to spare.
Meanwhile, Chennai Super Kings ended their five-match losing streak in the last game when they defeated Lucknow Super Giants at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium. CSK bowlers kept Lucknow down to 166/7 in their 20 overs before Shivam Dube and MS Dhoni’s unbeaten partnership of 57 runs off 28 balls to them home in 19.3 overs with five wickets to spare. Dhoni rolled back the years as he scored an unbeaten 26 off 11 balls, also winning the Player of the Match award. The 43-year-old will look to guide his team to another win on Sunday, as they are still languishing at the bottom of the points table.
