IPL 2024: Exploring Both Teams Best Playing 11 for MI vs CSK

MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma face-off as we look at the best predicted playing 11 for MI vs CSK match 29 of IPL 2024. 

Its match 29 of the TATA IPL 2024, and we have the Mumbai Indians taking on the Chennai Super Kings in a classical El-Clasico clash at Mumbai Indians’ home den, Mumbai. It’s the match that brings the biggest TRP among all matches, and the 2024 clash will witness two teams, who aren’t too far in terms of points table. While CSK have three wins from 5 games, MI have 2 wins from 5 games. 

Chennai Super Kings started their 2024 campaign with two wins in two games in Chennai, but as soon as their away matches started, they lost back-to-back matches, and were squared at 4 points from 4 games. But again they reached Chennai, and got two wonderful points against KKR. They now once again face a big challenge by facing Mumbai Indians in their own backyard.

After a shocking trio of defeats, Mumbai Indians seem to have finally found their mojo with back-to-back wins. Wankhede has always been a fortress for MI, and playing at home has helped them with back-to-back wins. The next match is also scheduled at home, but against a champion side line Chennai Super Kings. But MI would want to continue with the winning momentum, and make it a hat-trick of wins.
