A tie many thought could decide top spot before a ball was bowled in the IPL 22 is now a face-saving exercise for both teams. I have been looking at the online cricket satta bazar to come up with the best CSK vs MI betting tips in my full match preview!

The MI are almost certain to finish with the wooden spoon this season, with just two wins in 11, while the CSK need a minor miracle to make the playoff places. Essentially, this is a battle to avoid bottom.

The MI are the competition’s most successful side of all time with five IPL titles, while the CSK are in hot pursuit with four. Team management from both franchises will need to take a long hard look at what went wrong this campaign and how to remedy it quickly for IPL 23.

To get my IPL betting breakdown ahead of two fallen giants meeting at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from 7.30 pm (IST) on Thursday 12th April, check out my full game breakdown below.

CSK vs MI Betting Odds

After back-to-back wins, the Mumbai Indians returned to the status quo with a defeat to the Kolkata Knight Riders on Monday.

CSK vs MI Betting Winner Prediction

Recommended Bet: Back CSK to win @ 1.74 with Pure Win.

Let’s start with my premium CSK vs MI betting tips – I am going with the Chennai Super Kings to get the job done against a flat and uninspiring Mumbai Indians side that deserve to be rock bottom after 11 games.

A Devon Conway-inspired CSK demolished the Delhi Capitals by 91 runs on Sunday to keep the slimmest of all playoff hopes alive. It would be a sort of miracle only MS Dhoni could cultivate – but still think there is too much to do for the Super Kings.

However, I believe they will keep the top four race alive with a win over a Mumbai Indians outfit that cannot get the job done – no matter how dominant their position.

You can back the CSK to win at 1.74 – I am placing my bet with Pure Win. They tend to offer the best match winner odds. Read our full Pure Win review to find out more.

CSK vs MI Hot Bet

Recommended Bet: Back Moeen Ali to be CSK’s top CSK bowler @ 8.0 with 10CRIC

Get this – Moeen Ali, who claimed three wickets in the CSK’s win over the Delhi Capitals on Sunday, is the longest odds of all the bowlers on his side’s roster to land be top wicket-taker for his team against the Mumbai Indians.

I think 8.0 represents astonishing value for punters. He is by no means a favourite, but his performance on Sunday shows his value to the team as a spinner.

He claimed three wickets for 13 runs from four overs – taking the key scalps of Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant, and Axar Patel in a golden-arm spell.

I think 10CRIC have got the odds too long, but they are an Indian betting site that regularly surprises me with their positions on individual player markets. They always offer hyper-competitive markets on bets such as top team batsman and top team bowler. Find out more by reading our 10CRIC review here.

CSK Recent Form

A Devon Conway innings of 87 from just 49 balls set the Super Kings on their way to a resounding win over the Delhi Capitals. The Kiwi hit seven 4s and five 6s at a strike rate of 177.55 to continue his fine form in this year’s IPL.

It’s all a little too late for the CSK now. They have to win all of their remaining three games and hope the RCB lose both of theirs to stand a chance of making the playoffs.

CSK have already beaten MI once this season, when miraculous finishing from MS Dhoni dragged his team over the line from a seemingly impossible situation. How many times have we seen the mercurial Indian legend do that?

There may be more MS miracles to come this campaign – but the biggest trick (to achieve a spot in the playoffs) is surely beyond him.

Team News

Out of sorts all-rounder Ravi Jadeja missed the game against the Capitals with an arm injury.  He hurt it in attempting a catch against the RCB and was able to carry on. However, the knock has taken its toll, and it remains to be seen if he’ll be fit come coin toss.

There are no further injury issues for the Chennai Super Kings.

Player to Watch: Devon Conway

What would I be typing about CSK’s chances had Conway been available throughout the whole tournament?

He is in stellar form at the moment and boasts an average of 77 and a strike rate of 155.03 across just four innings.

Indeed, since he returned to the side after taking a break from the tournament to get married, the CSK have been getting off to flying starts. Conway and partner Ruturaj Gaikwad have now hit one half-century opening stand and two century opening stands between them.

I will be placing a bet on Conway to be man of the match, such is the form he is in. You can back him at 8.00 with Betway. 

Chennai Super Kings’ Likely XI

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Robin Uthappa, Moeen Ali, Ambati Rayudu, Shivram Dube, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (c, wk), Dwayne Bravo, Rajvardhan Hangargekar, Tushar Deshpande.

MI Recent Form

Before the defeat to the Kolkata Knight Riders, the Mumbai Indians had begun to put some respectability on their final league standings.

Back-to-back victories had meant they avoided the worst-ever points tally in the IPL. With four points, they now sit level alongside the Deccan Chargers (2008) and the Delhi Capitals (2014).

They looked set to make it three wins in a row at one point – one of the best bowling spells of the season by Jasprit Bumrah (5/10 from just four overs) helped restrict the KKR to 165/9. However, yet another batting collapse saw them fold from 69/2 to 113 all out.

Other than flashes of brilliance from the odd talent, the MI have been average all season long.

Team News

If things weren’t already bad enough, their one consistent performer, Suryakumar Yafav, has ben ruled out for the rest of the tournament. The middle-order batter has a forearm muscle injury to his left arm, sustained in the game against the Gujarat Titans.

Ramandeep Singh came into the side to replace him and is expected to retain his place in the starting XI.

Player to Watch: Jasprit Bumrah

Finally – a performance worthy of the talent that Jasprit Bumrah possesses. The Indian pacer was irrepressible in taking five wickets for 10 runs from four overs – the best figures of the tournament so far.

Has he found his groove? You can never rule him out – I am backing him to take 2+ wickets at 2.0 with Betway. 

MI’s Likely XI

Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Dewald Brevis, Ramandeep Singh, Tilak Varma, Kieron Pollard, Daniel Sams, Murugan Ashwin, Kumar Kartikeya, Riley Meredith, Jasprit Bumrah.

The trend in this tournament has been to bowl first if you win the toss – but the skipper gets the flip of the coin may think twice when they consider the recent record at the Wankhede stadium.

In each of the last five matches at this venue, the team batting first has won. What is more – they all follow quite a distinct pattern. The team batting first across those same five matches average 177, while the chasing team average 107.6

To put that into context – the aggregate victory margin between the team batting first and second stands at 347 runs.

It seems to be a bat-first wicket down in Wankhede.

Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians Head-to-Head

There is a reason this is such a hotly anticipated clash at the beginning of every IPL season! These two are the most successful sides in the IPL and have therefore played each other the most.

As it stands, the Mumbai Indians have a 20-15 head to head advantage – I’m backing the CSK to close that gap here.

Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians Toss Prediction

Rohit Sharma has at least got his guessing game in order – the Mumbai Indians skipper has called correctly in three of the last four coin flips.

I have a feeling the CSK will get the rub of the green, though. I’m going to back MS Dhoni to call heads and for it to come in. You can back the CSK to win the toss at 1.9 with Betway.
