Well, hello and welcome back to my blog, SlogVlog! In today’s post, we’re diving into the anticipation surrounding the much-awaited clash between two IPL giants, MI and CSK. This match not only marks another chapter in their historic rivalry but also signals the beginning of a new era. For the first time in 17 years, neither Mahendra Singh Dhoni nor Rohit Sharma will be leading their teams.

Weather Report:
Well, it seems the weather gods are in a cheerful mood, blessing the Wankhede Stadium with scorching heat for this much-anticipated clash. However, as the match progresses into the second innings, dew is expected to make its presence felt. Now, shifting our focus to the pitch report…
Pitch Report:
Well, the Wankhede Stadium has earned its reputation as a fortress for chasing teams, and this season has reaffirmed that trend. In two out of the three matches played here so far, the chasing team emerged victorious. Notably, in their last encounter at this venue against RCB, MI chased down a target of 196 in a mere 15.3 overs. Hence, opting to chase seems to be the logical choice given the historical performance of the ground.
Both teams have showcased moments of brilliance and occasional struggles in this IPL season. While Chennai has clinched more victories overall, their away record remains unimpressive. On the flip side, Mumbai has found success in their recent matches, particularly at their home ground, where they secured convincing wins in their last two outings. Given their recent form and home advantage, we’re leaning towards the Mumbai Indians to triumph in this highly anticipated El Clásico encounter. Who will win this match, who will win the Marine Drive VS Marina Beach clash, the details are below…
If you want to see the El-Classico of the IPL and possibly MS Dhoni’s last one, then please tune into Jio Cinema at 7:30 PM IST.
Until Next Time!
Thank you.
