Mumbai Indians vs Chennai Super Kings Live: The 2025 Indian Premier League (IPL) will serve a sunday evening blockbuster as Mumbai (MI) Indians host Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the second 'El Clasico' of the season after CSK defeated MI in the first match of the season for both teams in Chennai last month by four wickets in a low-scoring clash.MI started the season with four defeats in their last five matches but have made a strong comeback to register victories in their last outings and look set to be peaking at the right time again.On the other hand, CSK lost five games in a row for the first time in history which include an unprecendented hat-trick of defeat at home.
However, they are coming into this game on the back of a win over LSG. CSK have also signed Ayush Mhathre and Dewald Brevis as injury replacements and both are in contention for a debut tonight. Head-to-Head: The IPL's two most successful teams have played each other 40 times in history (all competitions) with 21 wins for MI and 19 victories for CSK.
They have played 12 matches at Wankhede in which Mubai have seven wins compared to Chennai's five victories.MI's last victory over CSK came in 2022. The Men in Yellow have since won four games in a row.
Can Hardik Pandya's Men end the streak? Toss: The Toss will take place at 7:00 PM IST Pitch Report: The Wankhede track was sluggish one against SRH but another such surface against CSK will be a suprise. A typical Mumbai track with good bounce with early movement for pacers is expected. A big scoring game should be on the cards.
Weather Report: There is no change of rain tonight in Mumbai. However, it is an extremely humid day with a maximum temperature of 33 and minimu of 27 degrees celcius.
