The rivalry week kick-starts on May 6th with one of the ‘Greatest Rivalries’ of TATA IPL as MS Dhoni’s CSK host Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai Indians at the Chepauk Stadium.
Of all the clashes in the history of the IPL, there has never been a match that draws as much attention and drama as the clash between the two undisputed heavyweights of the league.
Former India cricketer Mohammed Kaif reckons the contest between CSK and MI will be an exciting one as it will be a match between quality batters and bowlers.
Speaking on Star Sports’ Cricket Live, Md Kaif said, “One has better batsmen and the other team has better spinners. It will be very difficult for MI to beat CSK on the day. CSK’s spin trio is very strong and in such a situation, Rohit’s team will have to make a new strategy to defeat CSK.”
