The 41st match of IPL 2020 has Chennai Super Kings taking on Mumbai Indians on Friday. Both the teams are placed at the opposite ends of the table. Chennai Super Kings are sitting at the bottom of the table with three wins in 10 games, while Mumbai Indians are placed at third spot with 7 wins in 10 matches.
Chennai Super Kings
With the defeat against Rajasthan Royals, Chennai Super Kings are seemingly out of the race for the playoffs. MS Dhoni at the post-match presentation stated that the team will give chances to the youngsters in the coming games. And, thus you could see a few changes in the next game against MI. CSK would hope to win the upcoming games and bring back smiles on the faces of their fans.
Key Players:
Their leading run-scorer, Faf du Plessis and Ambati Rayudu are two players we are backing to come good in the next game. Ravindra Jadeja has been outstanding in the tournament both with the bat as well as the ball. He should be a must-have in your side. Besides, both Rahul Chahal and Josh Hazlewood bowled beautifully in the last game. If the duo gets some swing in the next game, they could prove to be dangerous.
Mumbai Indians:
With the defeat in the last game against KXIP, Mumbai Indians have slipped to the third position in the table. They would be keen to win the game against CSK and make their position strong as we go into the business end of the tournament. Mumbai Indians are currently placed at third in the table with 6 wins in 9 matches.
Key Players:
Quinton de Kock has been scoring consistently for Mumbai this year. De Kock has scored 322 runs at an average of 40.25 and also scored a half-century in the last game against Kings XI Punjab. Also, it an important game against CSK, it’s important that Rohit Sharma must come good against CSK. Suryakumar Yadav hasn’t fired in the last couple of games and would be itching to add some runs under his back.
Both Jasprit Bumrah and Quinton de Kock has worked wonders for the team and would be hoping to keep up with the good run. Given that both of them bowls in the power-play and death overs, we have added them in our fantasy XI.
