The middle order looks absolutely solid with the legends like Suresh Raina, Suryakumar Yadav, and Kieron Pollard. Raina was CSK's lynchpin when the side won the IPL title in 2010 and 2011. He was also a part of CSK's 2018-title winning team.
Meanwhile, Kieron Pollard has been a key part of all of Mumbai's IPL wins over the years. The big-hitting West Indian has made valuable contributions with the bat and also in the field. He is a big-match player who loves performing when it matters the most.
Strong lower order
Not only is Dhoni one of the greatest finishers, but he is also the joint-most successful IPL captain having led CSK to five title wins. Allrounder Ravindra Jadeja provides balance to this team with his overall skills. He can contribute with the bat, ball, and also in the field.
Lethal bowling attack
The bowling attack looks lethal with Lasith Malinga and Jasprit Bumrah being the two frontline pacers, and Harbhajan Singh the only specialist spinner. Both Bumrah and Malinga are experts in this format and have some excellent death bowling skills.
Both Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians will square off against each other at Chennai on March 23. It is the first match for both the teams and they will be aiming for a winning start.
