Predicting the Match

Who will win the CSK vs. MI IPL match today?

To begin their IPL 2025 campaign, the two most successful IPL teams will square off.

Preview of the Match

On Sunday, March 23, the 18th Indian Premier League (IPL 2025) will feature Match 3 between the well-known teams Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians. The famous MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai will host the match.

Hardik Pandya and Ruturaj Gaikwad will be leading their respective franchises for the second season. However, Pandya will not play in MI's opening match, and Suryakumar Yadav will serve as the team's acting captain for the tournament debut. Notably, Pandya will be suspended for one match in the upcoming season after breaking the over-rate rule in the previous year's IPL.

In contrast, CSK and MI placed fifth and tenth in the previous edition, respectively. Both parties made significant investments in the mega auction and are keen to start their IPL 2025 campaign strong. Both teams will have high expectations for the season. Over the years, the bitter rivals have faced off in a number of memorable matches, and this matchup looks to carry on that tradition.

Pitch Report for MA Chidambaram Stadium

In Chennai, the pitch has typically been a game-changer. Pacers did, however, get a lot of carry with the new ball the previous season. It should be a little harder to bat than at other locations.

MI vs. CSK Probable Top Performers

Best Batter: Ruturaj Gaikwad

Ruturaj Gaikwad, the captain of CSK, hasn't been playing well lately. He had a poor performance in the 2024–25 Vijay Hazare Trophy. The full-time captain might, however, be expected to take a new turn and lead from the front as the new season begins. He might also be a contender for the IPL 2025 Orange Cap if he puts on good performances.

Best Bowler: Ravindra Jadeja

Ravindra Jadeja, the star all-rounder, just finished a Champions Trophy 2025 campaign that gave him more confidence. It is reasonable to assume that the spin-bowling all-rounder will capitalize on his current form and put on another outstanding showing with the ball. Because of his ability to take wickets, he might also be considered for the IPL 2025 Purple Cap.
