Mumbai Indians

It is not often that we have seen Mumbai Indians in a situation like this that they find themselves in and many times when they have been in dire straits they have managed to get back into the fray and qualify. At this point, a spot in the next round seems a long way off. They would need to win all remaining games to have a fair chance of qualifying and given their form not many would want to bet on that possibility at the moment.

As it currently stands on the points table, the Mumbai Indians are at the bottom and still looking for their first win. Not only that, they have a pretty bad net run rate of -1.048 which they're looking to improve along with some points on the board.

It's not like the Mumbai Indians were completely outplayed by their opponents. It's just that the Indians of Mumbai failed to take the final leap to face the critical moments. The fact that Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan didn't do well for them didn't help their cause either. Dewald Brevis, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Verma have done well for them in the middle class and that's perhaps the only thing that has kept their hopes alive despite a disastrous start.

Also on the bowling front we saw that they made a number of mistakes which is not normally a trait of the Mumbai Indians. Aside from Jasprit Bumrah, none of their bowlers have looked sharp enough to cause any problems. This in turn has allowed the opposing batsmen to safely outplay him and attack the other batsmen. Largely because of the performance of their bowlers, the Mumbai Indians are in a bad position and some radical changes are needed to bounce back from here.

We expect Tymal Mills to sit out the next game and the same could happen with Murugan Ashwin to make way for Mayank Markande. Hitting hasn't performed as well as it's capable, but it looks done. The Mumbai Indians would have to play out of their skins in this upcoming game and if they are able to do so, the Chennai Super Kings will surely have their work cut out.

Chennai Super Kings

The Chennai Super Kings got off to a remarkably similar start to the Mumbai Indians, but on their breather they managed to clinch a win to stay slightly ahead of the Mumbai Indians in the pecking order. While they're still a long way from announcing their candidacy for a spot in the next round, a few more wins will get their campaign back on track and they will know it.

As the points table currently stands, Chennai Super Kings are second from bottom with just one win from six games. They have struggled in almost every game apart from one game and would need that final push to turn those losses into more wins. They have a net run rate of -0.638 and would definitely want to improve on that in the future.

Also in the previous game they were able to dictate conditions before Chris Jordan filled them with the ball. However, that was actually their story that season as they struggled to get good overs in the back end of the innings regardless of whether they batted first or bowled first.
