CSK vs MI Highlights IPL 2026: Two of the most well-supported and successful franchises in the Indian Premier League, with 10 combined titles to their name, both of whom are not having the seasons they would have liked to see. Mumbai Indians are struggling on four points after just two wins, while Chennai Super Kings are just ahead with three wins to their name....Read More
Already, it is looking like a situation where neither team can truly afford to lose. 14 points likely won't be enough to qualify from this stage, so a seventh loss tonight could well and truly end MI's campaign with five matches to spare. CSK could just about stay alive, on par with Delhi Capitals after their own win last night, and in position to take advantage of any slip ups higher up the table.
Two icons of each team, MS Dhoni and Rohit Sharma, aren't expected to feature in this match either as injury keeps them out for extended periods of time through this IPL season. Fans won't enjoy the wait of having to see these legendary players, but equally will be anxious for names like Ruturaj Gaikwad, Suryakumar Yadav, and Hardik Pandya to come good as they struggle for form themselves.
There are problems aplenty with both teams, but they will each want to focus on the strengths they possess – MI's batting finally seemed to come to the party as they hammered a big score against SRH, but it was the bowling which struggled to contain their opposition.
CSK finally seemed to have a combination that was working with their dual overseas spinners and a strong domestic batting, but it has been a story of hot and cold for the five-time champions. Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad hasn't been able to lead from the front, and will need to find a way to explode with the bat at the top and set the tone for the remainder of the team.
Shivam Dube and Dewald Brevis in particular are hunting for form in the middle order, not able to leave their mark on the tournament. The same applies for the MI middle order of Suryakumar Yadav and Hardik Pandya – while Tilak Varma finally seems to be finding some rhythm, he needs some support from the numbers around him.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: All over! CSK win and move up into sixth
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Kartik Sharma pulls out a reverse lap just to show he can, and gets to score the winning runs for his team! A good knock from him, supporting his captain in an excellent partnership.
CSK vault over DC into sixth, and you have to think that this will be it for MI's campaign this year.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Kartik Sharma's maiden IPL fifty!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Well-deserved fifty! Very patient and sensible from the young man. Still has some things to prove, but getting runs under his belt will do him a world of good.
4 needed off 12.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Kartik all but settles it – 14 off the over
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Really important innings for this youngster who earned so much money in the auction. Not a spectacular innings, but a safe and confident one where he has batted well with his captain. A couple of fours through the off-side and a big six over the on-side – only 8 needed off 18 now.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Gaikwad takes on Bumrah! Less than run-a-ball
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Too easy for Gaikwad! Expects the shorter one and is well set now. Sits up for him to smack to square leg.
33 needed off34 now.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Patient stuff; 53 needed off 48
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: That equation growing easier as these middle overs progress. Neitherof these batters having to take any risk to keep the runs moving.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 75 needed off 66
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: CSK in total control. MI need to find something special to force the pressure back onto them, but batting all a little too easy right now.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Ghazanfar strikes! Key wicket of Urvil
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Allah Ghazanfar with a wicket to end Urvil's charge! Much-needed. Skids through, beaten for pace and skid, and rattles his stumps.
Can MI use this to battle back?
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Now 18 run over! Urvil Patel's turn
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: CSK turning the heat on! Some batting – there were so many calls to see Urvil and this is why. A little bit of Prithvi Shaw in him – uses his crease well and wristy, with a flourish to follow. The last show is magnificent, clips it with real style over square leg for four!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: HUGE 17-run OVER! Gaikwad goes hard
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Great over for CSK! Ruturaj Gaikwad off to a quick start today. Gaikwad knows he can't afford to slow down and has to attack from the off. A couple of boundaries and a six – crucial few boundaries for CSK!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: DROPPED BUT THEN GONE! BUMRAH GETS SAMSON EARLY
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: KEY MOMENT EARLY ON!
Jasprit Bumrah takes the second over after chase begins. His first ball is a thick edge to first slip, where Jacks puts down a sitter.
Been that kind of night for MI – but HELLO! Bumrah has his man anyway! A little too close to Samson to cut, a little bit of extra bounce, no feet from Samson, thick edge, and extremely well taken by Rickelton!
Crucial wicket – MI are in this if they can get a couple more.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: MI stumble to 159/7
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 69 off the last 10 overs. The innings slowed to a crawl and ended up going nowhere. Something in the pitch or just a lack of form for MI?
Trent Boult swings one away to collect six – too little too late, but at least it's something. Every run can matter.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Third for Kamboj, Hardik's struggle ends!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: A nightmare innings for Hardik. 18(23) not what you expect from him. Finally gets one from Kamboj he can get under but gets under it too much – skied to midwicket, where Brevis is as safe as houses.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 146/6 with last over to play
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Hardik Pandya unable to get anything away at all. He's really struggling for runs. Needs a big over here to give his bowlers something to defend next innings.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Minz next to fall! Chops on
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Excellent from CSK. Slow into the surface from Kamboj, Minz can't generate any power. Off the inside edge and rickets into his leg-stump.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Naman Dhir falls on 57! Top catch from Sarfaraz
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Excellent catch! Wickets keep coming. Dhir tries to make room to clear Sarfaraz at cover inside the ring, but the pace off delivery means he can't quite get enough on it. Sarfaraz scuttles across and has to time his jump well to grab it, and does well to hold on.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 120/4 with 5 overs to play
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: MI running out of steam in their innings, down to 8rpo.
Suddenly it's looking really tough to even get to 180. Can they find some firepower?
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Beautifully bowled! Noor removes Tilak Varma
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Another wicket for Noor Ahmad! Tossed up outside Tilak's off-stump, he takes the invitation without ever quite getting to the pitch. As a result, no control, sliced straight up. Ruturaj and Urvil nearly get into a tangle at cover, but the skipper holds on.
CSK on top now!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 106/3 after 12
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: CSK doing well to keep MI's rate under 9. Dhir is joined by Tilak Varma – both need to get going quickly to try and push 210-220. Looking a fair way off at the moment.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: SKY hits it down the throat of point! Ghosh has a big wicket on debut
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: WHAT A MOMENT! Ghosh has been impressive, and forces an error out of Suryakumar there! On a length, not wide enough – SKY can't manufacture it into the gap, so ends up firing it down the throat of Brevis at point! Safe hands, and he has to walk back!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 4, 6! SKY connects with a couple off Noor
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: That will make him feel much better! Suryakumar Yadav has been a shadow of his best self but taking on the top spinners in the opposition is what he is all about – picks up the lenght quickly a couple of times and makes full use.
90/2 after 10.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 77/2 after 9 overs
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Excellent control from CSK – Ramakrishna Ghosh comes on and delivers a great over, no loose balls, keeping it tight. They will be very happy with this, keeping MI uncomfortable.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: NOOR STRIKES! Removes Rickelton
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Big wicket! Rickelton tries to play the big sweep again, but can't get it fine of the man at square leg. Goes to him, and no mistakes in the field this time – Noor Ahmad does have a wicket in this over!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: PUT DOWN! Dube drops a sitter
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Have to take those! Naman Dhir slices at one wide of his stumps, floats to Dube at short third, and he somehow puts it down! Never stable enough to take it.
Can Dhir punish CSK?
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: 18 off Prashant Veer – Rickelton takes youngster for three sixes!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Always risky to bowl a left-arm orthodox to a lefty batter in the powerplay! Rickelton simply waits for the balls he thinks he can swing away at, and hammers three sixes – one swept square, a couple hammered over long on!
47/1 now after 5, MI making up.
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Rickelton survives run-out attempt!
CSK vs MI LIVE Score: Suicidal from Rickelton and he gets very lucky! Knocks it back to Kamboj and sets off for a single – the bowler hops across and does well to field it with one hand. He has all three stumps to aim at and more time to fire at them than he realises. Rushes his throw and fires wide – but Rickelton was cooked! Got away with one there, the South African.
