Mumbai Indians (MI) will host Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in the 28th match of IPL (Indian Premier League) 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday, April 14.

Mumbai Indians will enter the game on the back of a six-wicket victory over Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB). The Hardik Pandya-led side opted to bowl first and restricted RCB to 196/8, thanks to Jasprit Bumrah’s five-for.

In reply, Ishan Kishan (68) and Rohit Sharma staged a 101-run partnership for the first wicket. However, following Kishan’s dismissal, Suryakumar Yadav came into action and struck a 17-ball fifty, and skipper Hardik Pandya’s six-ball 21 aided MI in hunting down the target in 15.3 overs.

Meanwhile, Chennai Super Kings secured their third victory in the previous match against Kolkata Knight Riders, further solidifying their control over their opponents at Chepauk. Bowling first, they limited KKR to a mere 137-run total with Ravindra Jadeja and Tushar Deshpande, picking up three wickets each.

In response, Ruturaj Gaikwad scored a fine 58-ball 67-run match-winning knock, comprising nine fours. Daryl Mitchell (25) and Shivam Dube (28) also made decent contributions with the bat to chase down the target with 2.2 overs to spare.

On that note, here are the three differential picks you can opt for in the upcoming MI vs CSK Dream11 match.
