IPL 2025: MI vs CSK pitch report, highest score, stats at Wankhede Stadium

As they gear up to face Chennai Super Kings, MI will be hoping to once again capitalize on the batting-friendly conditions of their home ground.

The Mumbai Indians hosting arch rivals Chennai Super Kings at the iconic Wankhede Stadium tonight in what promises to be another thrilling chapter of the IPL’s fiercest rivalry. MI skipper Hardik Pandya won the toss and decided to bowl first against CSK in a very important game for both the sides.  Known as the 'Clasico' of the tournament, this clash features the two most decorated teams in IPL history. However, the 2025 season hasn’t been kind to either side. 

 

Mumbai currently sit in seventh place with six points from seven matches, while Chennai occupy the bottom spot with just four points from the same number of games. That said, both teams are coming off crucial victories and will be eager to build on that momentum in this high-stakes encounter.

 

 

Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai: Pitch report for MI vs CSK IPL 2025

 

The pitch report from Mumbai courtesy of Simon Doull and Michael Clarke - "We are back on pitch number 8. The dimensions are quite signficant - 60 meters on one side with a little breeze as well, 66 away to the Eastern side and 73 meters down town. 430 runs were produced last time a game was played on this pitch. It looks a little bit drier compared to what we saw on Thursday night, very similar grass covering in the middle of the wicket but these ends (near the fullish length) here are particularly drier. You might see little more spin. I thought it was a tiny bit tacky for the team batting first the other night, I don't think that is going to be the case today. It is a really good wicket. The perception here is you are going to get dew, so I would imagine both teams will look to chase. It is going to be a high-scoring pitch. Runs on the board are okay but dew does come in while batting second."
