On that note, here are the three players you could pick as the captain/vice-captain for the MI vs CSK Dream11 match.
#3 Jasprit Bumrah (MI) - 9.0 credits
Jasprit Bumrah will enter the match on the back of a stellar performance in the last game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. He took a five-wicket haul, which included the key wickets of Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis.
With a total of 10 wickets under his belt this season, Bumrah will undoubtedly be aiming to add to his tally in the upcoming game as well.
#2 Hardik Pandya (MI) - 8.5 credits
Hardik Pandya has promoted himself to bat at No. 4 in the last two games and also bowled a few overs. He has been in decent form this season, having scored 129 runs in five matches at an average of 32.25 and a fine strike rate of 153.57.
Hardik has taken a wicket as well, making him a wise all-rounder option for the captain/vice-captain in your MI vs CSK Dream11 teams.
#1 Suryakumar Yadav (MI) - 9.0 credits
After a poor start in the first 2024 IPL game against Delhi Capitals, Suryakumar Yadav played a comeback knock in the previous game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru. He smashed 52 runs off just 19 deliveries, featuring five fours and four sixes, to register the second-fastest fifty for MI.
He has hammered 375 runs at Wankhede in the last seven matches, including three fifties and an unbeaten half-century. Hence, Suryakumar will be the best choice for captaincy in your MI vs CSK Dream11 teams.
