MI vs CSK, IPL 2023: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details

It’s time for the ultimate rivalry in the Indian Premier League. The 12th match of the 16th edition of the IPL will see the Mumbai Indians (MI) lock horns with their rivals Chennai Super Kings (CSK). The Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai will host this enthralling contest.

Mumbai Indians have gotten off to a terrible start to IPL 2023. They went down against the Royal Challengers Bangalore in their opening game of the competition.

After being asked to bat first, Tilak Varma played a brilliant knock of 84* off 46 balls to power his side to 171/7. The bowlers then managed to pick up only two wickets as the Royal Challengers chased down the total comfortably. The Mumbai Indians will be hoping to get their combination right and bring out their A-game against the Super Kings to grab their first win.

Chennai Super Kings didn’t have the perfect start either. They lost to the defending champions Gujarat Titans in their opening game but bounced back to win their next against the Lucknow Super Giants.

Contributions from Ruturaj Gaikwad (57) and Devon Conway (47) helped CSK post 217 on the board. Moeen Ali was the standout bowler for them with four wickets to help his side restrict the Super Giants to 205/7 for a 12-run victory. The Men in Yellow will be brimming with confidence and will look to carry forward the winning momentum.
