IPL 2025, MI vs CSK Live Score: It’s time for the big(gest) one in the Indian Premier League as Mumbai Indians host Chennai Super Kings at the Wankhede Stadium for Match 38 of the season. On paper, the two most successful franchises in the tournament history are struggling to tilt, thanks to injuries to crucial players and a lack of cohesive form from the rest, but that’s the beauty of this contest: on paper hardly matters.

The level of players on both sides, their experience and the size of the franchises for which even youngsters give their all without a second invitation means that their matches always tend to be full of quality moments. They played each other to start their seasons and in that match, CSK and Noor Ahmed’s spin came up with enough brilliant moments to seal a four-wicket win in the last over.

After that, CSK suffered five straight losses and only won their second match recently against Lucknow Super Giants. MI had a bad run of their own but are coming off two jail-break wins, giving them some momentum.

The odds are against Chennai because they don’t have Ruturaj Gaikwad and are playing at one of the most difficult away grounds in the country. But can Dhoni’s boys put up something special in what could be the legend’s last match of this rivalry? Or will Hardik Pandya and Co. continue their juggernaut? We shall find out!

MI vs CSK: Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report
Mumbai Indians made a surplus of the 200-run milestone in their win over the Lucknow Super Giants at the Wankhede the last time they played at home, and will look to utilise the high-scoring nature of the stadium to their advantage when CSK come visiting. That doesn’t mean there’s no help for bowlers here: a bit of grass + some turn in the middle-overs often keep bowlers interested despite the short boundaries.

Moreover, dew generally plays a big role here, though MI have been able to use the second old-ball rule (which is available after the 12th over) to their advantage before. CSK would want to learn from that, too.

MI vs CSK Probable Playing XIIs
Mumbai Indians: Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickelton (Wk), Will Jacks, Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (C), Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah and Karn Sharma

Chennai Super Kings: Shaikh Rasheed, Rachin Ravindra, Rahul Tripathi, Vijay Shankar, Dewald Brevis, Ravindra Jadeja, MS Dhoni (C/Wk), Jamie Overton, Matheesha Pathirana, Khaleel Ahmed, Anshul Kamboj and Shivam Dube
