Today's IPL 2026 match: Who are the players to watch out for?
CSK vs MI, Chennai, 7.30pm local time
Both Rohit Sharma and MS Dhoni are likely to remain out of action due to hamstring and calf injuries respectively. Ryan Rickelton and Will Jacks provided MI with a solid start in their last game, and will likely hold the key against CSK as well, with most of their middle order misfiring. MI have also entered must-win territory and will hope Jasprit Bumrah, who was taken to the cleaners against SRH, finally finds his rhythm.
Akeal Hosein had taken four wickets when the two sides last met in the IPL in Mumbai, while Sanju Samson had slammed a ton. Dewald Brevis, so far, has barely played one impactful innings, and with CSK trying to continue their push for a playoff spot, they will want the South African batter to begin firing.
