Who could think of a better way of starting the second leg of IPL? IT IS CSK VS MI AGAIN!!!!!! The two greatest rivals in IPL history! This match will be a classic for sure. CSK and MI matches, in my view, produce the best matches. The first match between the two teams was one of the best matches I have seen in IPL history. MI looked like they had no hope, but Pollard came and saved MI like a superhero. Anyways let’s get on with the preview.
Probable 11 For CSK:
- Faf Du Plessis
- Ruthuraj Gaikwad
- Moeen Ali
- Raina
- Ambati Rayudu
- Dhoni (C) (WK)
- Jadeja
- Shardul Thakur
- Josh Hazlewood
- Deepak Chahar
- Lungi Ngidi
Josh Hazlewood will be available for the second leg of the IPL 2021. We are not that sure about Faf’s availability for the 1st match also. He got injured in the Semi-Finals of the CPL. So maybe if he won’t be able to play the opener then Robin Uthappa can replace him.
Probable 11 For MI:
- Rohit Sharma (C)
- Quinton De Cock (WK)
- Suryakumar Yadav
- Ishan Kishan
- Pollard
- Hardik Pandya
- Krunal Pandya
- Nathan Coulter-Nile
- Rahul Chahar
- Jasprit Bumrah
- Trent Boult
Pitch Report:
The Dubai pitch is a bowling pitch, but last year, the pitch became a batting pitch in the first half of the IPL. And the 2020 IPL started on September 19th also. So until the pitch gets slower, I suggest that the team that wins the Toss should elect to bat first.
Weather Report:
The weather in Dubai will be sunny on Sunday according to weather reports. So there will be no rain expected on Sunday.
