We can ask for nothing more than the CSK vs MI game on a Saturday night. The clash is big, and so are the expectations. Mumbai Indians couldn’t afford to win their first game even after the roller coaster innings of Tilak Varma. And this would have made waiting for the next game even harder for Mumbai Indians. At the same time, CSK had to struggle to register their first win of this tournament. Looking at the performances of both teams, they seem to be in the same boat. But the scenario of MI vs. CSK always brings out the best in both the team blokes.

Fantasy Picks for the MI vs CSK Match
Captain : B Stokes
Whenever bigger games arrive it will bring the Ben Stokes that lurks inside Ben Stokes. Big match player. We can expect his first breakthrough this season.
Vice captain : D Conway
Conway has found his rhythm in the last game and it has cost the opponents a huge loss. With this confidence, Conway is surely making a big innings in the next games.
Batsmen : S Yadav, R Gaikwad, T Varma
The in-form batters R Gaikwad and T Varma are the obvious additions to our teams.
S Yadav hasn’t got his blade speaking for more than four games in a row now. And for his kind of batting, he can bring in his A-Game at any time.
Wicketkeepers : I Kishan
The blasting nature of Ishan Kishan, accompanied by converting it into big innings always makes him special.
All-rounders : B Stokes, C Green, M Ali
When the all rounders play a vital role in a game, it will have a huge impact. So in a big game like this all these all rounders are precious.
Bowlers : P Chawla, D Chahar, R Hangargekar
D Chahar went expensive in the last game. But still he will be the strike bowler for CSK in this season.
Hangargekar is a kind of bowler who bowls to the stumps often. These kinds of bowlers are big time wicket takers. Undoubtedly, he will be a key for CSK.
P Chawla with his leg spin can be prolific when all his boxes are ticked right.
