Mumbai, Apr 19 (UNI) After a sluggish start to their IPL 2025 campaign, Mumbai Indians have bounced back with consecutive victories, while Chennai Super Kings are struggling near the bottom of the points table with just two wins from seven outings.
As the two most successful franchises in IPL history lock horns at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday night, the form disparity between them sets the tone for a high-stakes clash with contrasting ambitions.
Match 38 of the season brings together two storied rivals in vastly different moods. Mumbai, five-time champions, appear to have hit their stride with allround performances against Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad. Their bowlers restricted SRH to 162-5 in the last outing, which MI chased down with four wickets in hand.
