CSK Predicted XI vs MI: CSK are hoping to keep their playoff hopes alive.

Both the Chennai Super Kings and the Mumbai Indians have had such bad seasons that their playoff chances appeared to be over even before they met this season. MI are now officially out of the race, leaving CSK with the slimmest of mathematical chances.

However, all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was ruled out for the same reason, which may have dealt a blow to the team. Jadeja hasn’t been at his best with the ball or bat this season, but he is still an important part of the team. He had also missed the previous match, but the M S Dhoni-led side will take heart from their 91-run win over the Delhi Capitals in their last outing and hope the batters can build on their outstanding performance.

Devon Conway, the opening batsman, has hit three consecutive half centuries. With his whirlwind 87, he tore apart the Delhi Capitals attack and will need to provide an aggressive start alongside fellow opener Ruturaj Gaikwad, who has found form as well but can be more consistent. The last time these two sides met, Dhoni, dubbed “the best finisher,” sealed the game on the final ball.

Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway are the starters.

Changes in the playing XI: CSK are known for trying to avoid making as many changes as possible, so it’s unlikely that they’ll make any changes after their dominant win in their last match.

Gambhir acknowledges that his “sole regret in seven years of captaincy” is Suryakumar Yadav: “KKR failed to recognise his potential.”

Throughout his incredible career with the Mumbai Indians since 2018, Suryakumar Yadav has become a household name. He has established himself as a vital member of the batting lineup and is seen as the team’s future leader. He was able to establish himself in the Indian white-ball team and get to the top of the IC batting rankings in the format because to his valiant efforts at MI. But before he was let away, Suryakumar was a member of the Kolkata Knight Riders lineup from 2014 to 2017. When former captain Gautam Gambhir reflects on the two IPL titles won by KKR during that time, he named the star player from India his greatest regret.

KKR featured Suryakumar Yadav from 2014 to 2017.

In 2012, Suryakumar began his IPL career with the Mumbai Indians, appearing in just one match before being cut loose the following year. He was signed by KKR in 2014, and he won the championship in his first campaign there. The right-handed batter scored 608 runs in 54 games during his four-year tenure with the team, although the majority of those runs were scored as a lower middle order hitter.

In an interview with Sportskeeda on Monday, Gambhir said that his biggest regret as KKR captain is that he failed to recognise Suryakumar’s ability or his ideal batting position in the lineup.

Finding and showcasing the greatest potential is the responsibility of a leader. If there’s one thing I regret from my seven years as captain, it’s that neither I nor the squad were able to fully utilise Suryakumar Yadav. And combinations were the key to the cause. At No. 3, you may only play one person. As a leader, you also need to consider the other ten players in the starting lineup. Although he was just as excellent at No. 7, he would have been far more effective at No. 3, he said.

Gambhir went on to praise Suruyakumar for being a team player, citing the reason behind his appointment as the team’s vice-captain in 2015.

He was a team player as well. A good player may be anyone, but becoming a team player takes skill. Playing him at No. 6 or 7 or benching him, he was constantly grinning and eager to contribute to the squad. He went on, “That’s why we named him vice captain.”
