- Match: Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians, Match 3, IPL 2025
- Date & Time: March 23, 2025, 19:30 IST
- Venue: MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai
- Head-to-Head: CSK 17-20 MI (MI lead but CSK has won the last three meetings)
- MI at Chepauk: 5-3 in favor of Mumbai Indians
Pitch and Conditions: MA Chidambaram Stadium
The Chepauk pitch is traditionally spin-friendly, but recent seasons have seen good batting tracks. Dew is expected to play a factor, with chasing teams winning 5 of 7 matches here in 2024. The average scores at this venue are 151 in the first innings and 127 in the second innings.
Important details: CSK vs MI
CSK’s strategy will revolve around countering MI’s spin attack, potentially fielding up to four left-handers in their top six. Ruturaj Gaikwad will need to be wary of Trent Boult, who has dismissed him three times in 26 balls.
MI will rely on Tilak Varma’s good form and Mitchell Santner’s expertise to counter CSK’s spinners. Suryakumar Yadav will need to be cautious against Ravindra Jadeja, who has dismissed him three times in IPL.
