IPL 2022, CSK vs MI Live Cricket Score Streaming Online Today: Last time when the two sides met, a vintage Dhoni, ‘the best finisher’ sealed the game on the last ball of the game.
That's a six by David to start Moeen ali's second over. Mumbai almost home. Will this be the last over of the match? That's a single and the scores are tied. A six to do it. MI win by 5 wickets, CSK eliminated.
13th over starts and Mumbai batters are slowly chipping away at the total. And what do you know!!! That's bowled!!! Moeen Ali sends young Shokeen back. MI 81/5 after 12.4 overs.
In these days of athletic bodies and the philosophy of being ever-ready to steal extra runs, the cheeky walks of Arjuna Ranatunga have been binned to nostalgia. Luckily, Mumbai Indians’ Tilak Varma rewound the clock for us after tapping a ball to long-off. There was no attempt to push the fielder, of being ready in case there is a slip-up; Varma just walked. But without the assuredness of a Arjuna. Varma indulged in quick walking; Arjuna would have perhaps sighed at the lack of self-confidence but at least it was something in these days of running hard even when a simple walk would do.

Bravo in to bowl the 11th. 3 runs from the first 3 balls. Two more to follow from the fourth over. 7 off this over as these two MI batters are inching towards the finish line. MI 73/4 after 11 overs
Before the strategic time out, Bravo's 9th over yielded 9 runs including a boundary. 10th over now and Theekshana to bowl this one. 2 runs gfrom the first 3 balls. Oh dear dear dear!! What a bad misfield down near the boundary which goes for a 4!! Dhoni does not look impressed. That's another edge and runs away for a four!! MI 66/4 after 10 overs.
Simarjeet in to bowl to the 7th over and Varma hits a four!! Off his leg side and that's gone to the boundary. Just 4 runs from tis over. MI 46/4 after 8 overs.
The umpire Chirra Ravikanthreddy no doubt has walked into a viral Gif. He was shaping to extend his arms to signal a wide but such was the intensity in the appeal of the wicketkeeper MS Dhoni that he quickly aborted the wide plan, and pulled up his right arm to signal Hrithik Shokeen was out, caught down the leg side. Of course, Shokeen wasn’t amused and went for the DRS which showed that it wasn’t a wide allright but it missed the bat comfortably and went off the thigh pad. We have had a few instances like this in the past. Chris Gaffianey had once raised his finger to rule Cheteshwar Pujara out before at the last minute, preferring to scratch his hatted head. Moe famously, in 1997, the umpire Raman Sharma had begun to raise his finger to rule Ajay Jadeja caught behind but changed his mind to do a Gaffaney. Or rather Gaffaney did a Sharma. Reddy, merely, succumbed to the MS reputation.
Sriram Veera
Mukesh in to bowl the 7th which will finish his quota for the night. Hard luck for him as Tilak gets a fortunate boundary. That gets te inside edge and raced to the boundary. MI 42/4 after 7 overs
Last over in the powerplay now and Chennai are totally bossing Mumbai around as their bowlers are breathing fire. Simrajeet Singh to bowl this one. Is that another???? Yes!!! Onfield umpire says yes. MI review. Looks safe though. No bat involved for a caught behind. Shokeen survives. MI 36/4 after 6 overs.
What is going on here??? Mumbai are completely making a meal out of this run chase as debutant Stubbs departs for a duck. Mukesh is on a rampage!!!! MI 33/4 after 4.5 overs.
Mukesh to bowl the penultimate over of the powerplay. Starts with a wide. That's another gone!!!! What is happening here??? LBW review now. Onfield umpire thinks it's out. That's gone!!!! Sams has to go. MI 33/3 after 4.3 overs.
Rohit Sharma had just survived a lbw call against an in swinger from the left-handed seamer Mukesh Choudhary. In the past, the left-handed seamers have had their moments against him. So what does he do next ball? Just prior to delivery, he moved outside leg stump and waited. Choudhary kept the inswinger on the stumps and Sharma crashed it up and over mid-off on a bent knee. A most gorgeous straight delivery came next over off Simarjeet Singh; It was as straight as anything Sachin Tendulkar has produced. Good response, though, from Simarjeet who produced a cracking leg cutter next ball to beat the edge. Some comic relief came next ball. Seeing Rohit charge way too early, Simarjeet chose the bouncer but in his eagerness he had banged it way too short and it flew over MS Dhoni for four byes. Simarjeet composed himself to produce a lovey delivery next ball that shaped away from just outside off, sucking Rohit into an iffy prod. Edge and taken.

Beautiful shot by Rohit to start the 4th over by Simarjeet. That's absolutely driven down the ground for a four!!! Classic shot. What was that!! Huge bouncer and that has beaten both the batter as well as the keeper. Goes for a 4!!!! Next ball gets an edge and Rohit Sharma is gone next!! MI 30/2 after 3.3 overs.
Huge appeal for LBW but Chennai opts against the review as they just have just one left. Next ball Rohit smashes Mukesh for a four!!! Great shot. That's followed by another which is played straight and runs away to the boundary in no time. MI 21/1 after 3 overs.
In a rather curious decision, Daniel Sams has come in at number 3 to give Rohit company. Simarjeet in to bowl the 2nd over and that's a four by Rohit. MI 11/1 after 2 overs
MS Dhoni knew it was going to be a bouncer last ball of the over to prevent him from retaining the strike and had supposedly alerted his non-striker, the no 11 batsman Mukesh Choudhary. As soon as the ball flew over his head, Dhoni set off. And to be fair, Choudhary had started to run as soon the bowler Meridith released the ball. But the Mumbai wicketkeeper Ishan Kishen was quick and accurate. He hadn’t taken his right glove off - some ‘keepers might have taken the right glove off pre delivery, but released the ball quickly and got a direct hit, leaving Choudhary well stranded. Could Dhoni have done the other way around? We have sometimes see batsmen stand their ground on similar situations, allow the non-striker to reach their side, and then try dashing across to the other end. That nullifies any direct hit at striker’s end from the keeper and forces him to try get the throw to the bowler on his follow-through. Dhoni trudged off the ground, up the stairs, turned into the dressing room, caught the replay on the tv inside, and shook his head in disappointment.

Ishan Kishan and Rohit are at the crease. Ishan Kishan is on strike. Mukesh Choudhary will open the attack. Huge appeal for LBW and CSK take a review. Still not out. Beautiful shot by Kishan for a four!!! Two runs to follow. Next ball is edged and Kishan is gone!!! Gets a nick and MSD takes the catch. MI 6/1 after 0.5 overs.
Dhoni gets a boundary against Meredith toward the fine leg. That's a good shot!! He hits a six this time over a deep square leg!! Chennai are all out. CSK are 97/10 after 15.5 overs.
Ramandeep Singh takes the wicket of M Theekshana and an easy catch by Rohit does the rest. That's great bowling by Ramandeep Singh. CSK are 85/9 after 14 overs.
Dwayne Bravo starts the over with a huge six against Kumar Kartikeya. But CSK are losing wickets at regular intervals as Bravo departs. Tilak Varma takes a brilliant catch to dismiss Bravo. Kartikeya also takes the wicket of Simarjeet. CSK are 80/8 after 13 overs.
Dhoni hits a huge six against Hrithik Shokeen. He slogs it over the deep square leg and gets a maximum. That's a great shot!! Some relief for CSK as Dhoni is still there in the middle. CSK are 65/6 after 10 overs.
Shivam Dube pulls it this time and gets a boundary against Meredith. But then he departs now and a brilliant catch by Ishan Kishan does the rest. Mumbai are dominating. CSK are 45/6 after 8 overs.
Talk about walking into fire. Robin Uthappa, who walked into a semi-crisis, was stunned out by Jasprit Bumrah’s fiery leg cutters. The first ball shaved past the defensive prod and Uthappa pursed his lips, mimicked the leg cutter and the movement in respect. Not that it helped him in the next two balls, as they invited drives but kept whizzing past the edge. So far, it had been all outside off channel. Would the next one come in? That would be too cheap a trick for Bumrah, who went for another leg cutter but got to start this beauty from the middle and off line. Uthappa pushed forward, thrusting his bat in line, but it cut away viciously to ram the back leg right in front of the off stump. Uthappa signalled for the non-existing DRS - power cut at stadium had delayed its introduction, not that it would have saved him. Seldom has a IPL batsman recieved four quality deliveries right up, like this; Uthappa had no chance, really.

Meredith to bowl the last over of the powerplay. Rayudu hits a boundary here. What is happening!! Rayudu departs and Ishan Kishan takes an easy catch. CSK are 32/5 after 6 overs.
Daniel Sams starts the over with a wicket. He gets the wicket of Gaikwad and an easy catch by Ishan Kishan does the rest. Chennai are four down now. MS Dhoni hits a beautiful drive and fetches a boundary. What a shot!! CSK are 25/4 after 5 overs.
Gaikwad starts the over with a classic drive. He hits through covers and gets the boundary against Bumrah. Rayudu also hits a boundary. CSK are 17/3 after 4 overs.
Bumrah to bowl the second over for Mumbai. He takes the wicket of Uthappa. What a start for the Mumbai Indians!! Chennai are in huge trouble. CSK are 5/3 after 2 overs.
Gaikwad and Conway start the proceedings for Chennai. Daniel Sams bowls the first over for Mumbai. OMG!! Sams gets the wicket of Devon Conway. What a stunning start for Mumbai. He also takes the wicket of Moeen Ali. Two wickets in an over. CSK are 5/2 after 1 over.
MS Dhoni: It has worked for us, batting first. We are playing with the same team. Someone like a Jaddu, he is one of those who helps us try out different combinations. It's tough to replace him, don't think anyone can field better, no replacement in that aspect. When a lot of is at stake, you need to do the homework and focus on the process, irrespective of the opposition.
Rohit Sharma: We will field first. It's the nature of the ground, and what suits our team. Nothing has worked for us this season. Keeping an eye on the future, Pollard is out and Stubbs is in. Shokeen comes in for Ashwin. He (Pollard) was the one who came up to us and he was ready for it. We want to try out a few players, got to see what they have to offer. Looks a good track, hope it plays well throughout the 40 overs. It's brilliant to play against Chennai, it's always like that. We need to try and win the game.
Chennai Super Kings (Playing XI): Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Robin Uthappa, Ambati Rayudu, Moeen Ali, Shivam Dube, MS Dhoni(w/c), Dwayne Bravo, Maheesh Theekshana, Simarjeet Singh, Mukesh Choudhary.
Mumbai Indians (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma(c), Ishan Kishan(w), Tilak Varma, Tristan Stubbs, Ramandeep Singh, Tim David, Daniel Sams, Kumar Kartikeya, Hrithik Shokeen, Jasprit Bumrah, Riley Meredith.
Rohit Sharma gives the cap to Tristan Stubbs as he is set to make his debut today for Mumbai Indians.
Mumbai Indians win the toss and opt to bowl first.
There's nice live grass on the wicket, so the pacers will get seam movement. It won't turn a lot, so the spinners won't be able to take many wickets. It's a good batting wicket, 175-plus is quite achievable on this pitch, reckons Hayden.
Bumrah could become the first Indian pacer to bag 250 T20 wickets in his career, he is just two wickets away from the landmark.
Kieron Pollard turns 35 on 12th May and has won many games for Mumbai Indians.
"I am not a big fan of maths. Even in school I wasn't good at it. Thinking of the NRR doesn't help. You just want to enjoy the IPL. When two other teams are playing, you don't want to be under pressure and thinking. You just have to think about what to do in the next game. If we make the playoffs, great. But even if we don't it's not the end of the world."
"What worked well for me was, initially when I started the tournament, I wasn't over-thinking, I was just going and batting, like I used to do. My focus was on giving a good start to the team. But I think later on, somewhere I was trying to finish the game... maybe I lost my focus in the first six overs. I had a chat with the coach and captain also, and they just said, 'If you can give us a good start, it will be helpful for the team, so you don't have to think about finishing the game. If you are set there in the middle, you will anyway do that."
CSK bowlers were right on the money when they bundled DC for 117. Tweaker Moeen Ali picked three wickets, while young pacers Mukesh Choudhary and Simarjeet Singh also fared well. The trio will need to once again deliver along with key spinner Maheesh Theekshana, whose four overs can also change the game’s fate. Another important cog is Bravo, who has the knack of breaking partnerships.
Opener Devon Conway is in sublime form and has hit three back-to-back half centuries. He tore apart the Delhi Capitals attack with his whirlwind 87 and would need to provide an aggressive start with fellow opener Ruturaj Gaikwad, who too has found form but can be more consistent.
- MS Dhoni has scored 710 runs at a strike rate of 130.8 against MI in the tournament
- Rohit Sharma has near-identical numbers against CSK - 752 runs at a strike rate of 125.3, including seven half-centuries
The years may have rolled on, he may no longer be the threat he once was, he may even struggle to get bat to ball at times. But there is one thing he can still do: take it to the last over. And then, as it used to be in his pomp, it is once again his will against the bowler’s will. On Thursday night at DY Patil Stadium, his will triumphed against the odds. (READ MORE)
Chennai Super Kings have released Ravindra Jadeja, with the all-rounder heading back home. The franchise CEO Kasi Viswanathan told The Indian Express that this was done purely “on medical advice” after a rib injury ruled Jadeja out of the rest of the IPL. CSK, on eight points, still have three group league matches remaining in the tournament. (READ MORE)
MI 19 - 14 CSK. Mumbai has an edge over Chennai, having won 19 matches while Chennai have come up on top on 14 occasions. The last time these two sides met, Dhoni turned back the clock to add to the growing list of CSK-v-MI thrillers with a final-over heist.
CSK Probable XI: Ruturaj Gaikwad, Devon Conway, Robin Uthappa, Shivam Dube, Ambati Rayudu, MS Dhoni, Moeen Ali, Dwayne Bravo, Maheesh Theekshana, Simarjeet Singh, Mukesh Choudhary.
MI Probable XI: Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Tilak Varma, Ramandeep Singh/Anmolpreet Singh, Tim David, Kieron Pollard, Daniel Sams, Murugan Ashwin, Kumar Karthikeya, Jasprit Bumrah, Riley Meredith.
