#4 Historic Rivalry

CSK will be aiming to start their IPL 2018 campaign on a winning note against MI

Only two teams in the history of IPL have competed against each other maximum number of times (3) in the finals' day. It's not bizarre that these two teams are the most consistent team in the history of the competition - Mumbai Indians & Chennai Super Kings.

Cricketing rivalry between these two teams is well-known and the intensity among the fans when these two teams square off against each other can’t be explained in simpler terms. Social media will be blazing whenever these two teams step on to the field. MI is currently the only team to have the highest head-to-head win percentage against the CSK. MI also holds the unique distinction of defeating CSK in the finals maximum number of times (2).

With the suspension of CSK for 2 years, their epic rivalry was heavily missed in the past 2 editions of IPL (2016 & 2017). It's an icing on the cake moment for the fans that CSK will return to IPL with their comeback match scheduled against their beloved rivals MI on Apr 7, 2018 in Wankhede, Mumbai.
