Who are the 5 most anticipated players in today’s match between Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians?
Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians play in the 33rd league match of the IPL cricket series today. The Chennai Super Kings, led by Ravindra Jadeja, have won just one of their last six matches. Meanwhile, the Mumbai Indians, led by Rohit Sharma, have lost all six of their matches so far. The 5-time champions are waiting for their first victory.
If the Mumbai team loses today’s match, they will be eliminated from the series. It would be correct to say that this match was a life-and-death confrontation for both teams.
There is a lot of anticipation over this match between the two teams who are facing a series of defeats. So let’s see who are the 5 players who have the most anticipation in the tournament.
Rudraj Kejriwal
CSK opener Rudraj Kejriwal has returned to form. He had scored 73 runs in the last match against Gujarat Titans. Rudraj is expected to be unbeaten in today’s match as well. And fans expect another big score from him. In the IPL 2021 series, Rudrak Kejriwal scored 635 runs in 16 matches with one hundred and four half-centuries to capture the orange cap.
Rohit Sharma
The biggest flaw in the Mumbai team is the batting form of captain Rohit Sharma. If it’s right, half of that team’s problem will be over. The runs scored by Rohit Sharma in this series are 41, 10, 3, 26, 28, 6. Also, he is very experienced and has been stumbling to lead the team in this series. Thus the team is languishing in the last place in the standings without even getting the first win. So the contribution of Rohit Sharma is going to be very important if we want to beat Chennai in today’s match and win first.
Ishan Kishan
Ishant Kishan’s ‘form’ bought for Rs 15.25 crore for Mumbai is worrying. He scored two fifties in the opening games of the series and is largely unbeaten in the subsequent games. Ishan Kishan can be expected to return to his old form in today’s match.
Jaspreet Bhumra
No other fast bowler in the Mumbai Indians squad except Bumra has saved the team. He is the only one fighting to maintain the team’s dignity. He crawls as a magician in distorting a strong batting line-up. The Chennai batsmen can be expected to show the style by the yorkers of Bumrah. As a bowler, you can count on the team to win.
Ravindra Jadeja
Chennai Super Kings captain Ravindra Jadeja is the most watched player in the current IPL series. But he seems to be suffering from the pressure of the captaincy. Thus we have seen in the matches played so far that his batting and bowling in this series has been affected due to the captaincy burden. Under these circumstances, if Chennai are to win today’s match, Jadeja will have to bat better. And the fact that Jadeja is not revealing his structured bowling is a setback.
