IPL 2026: MI vs CSK playing 11, live toss and match time, streaming

Both MI and CSK have so far recorded similar numbers in IPL 2026 as they have played six games and won just two of them

Two of the most successful teams in Indian Premier League (IPL) history, Mumbai Indians (MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK), will be hoping to reignite their hopes for playoffs in IPL 2026 when they battle each other in match 33 of the season at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai tonight. MI skipper Hardik Pandya has won the toss and elected to field first on the night.

 

Both teams so far have recorded similar numbers as they have played six games and won just two of them. However, there will be a big difference when they face each other in Mumbai as MI are coming fresh off a big 99-run win over Gujarat Titans (GT) in their last game, while CSK lost their last game to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in a last-over thriller.

 

In terms of team combination, MI seem to have finally got their desired team set-up minus Rohit Sharma, who has been out of the team for the last two games due to hamstring troubles but is expected to join the side for the CSK game. Jasprit Bumrah has finally ended his dry run in the season and Tilak’s ton has rejuvenated their middle order. MI will fancy their chances of securing their second consecutive win on Thursday.

 

On the other hand, CSK is experiencing a phase that is very similar to Murphy’s law that states whatever can go wrong will go wrong. The five-time champions are suffering with inconsistency in form and on top of that they have been plagued with injuries throughout the season.

 

The latest casualty of the injury bug is their in-form and most successful batter of the season, Ayush Mhatre, who has been ruled out of the tournament due to a hamstring injury. MS Dhoni, who has been on the sidelines due to a calf strain, is also unlikely to return vs MI. CSK skipper Ruturaj Gaikwad, who is struggling with his own form, now has the daunting task of recalling the perfect playing combination to keep their playoffs hopes alive.
