MI vs CSK, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 33

According to the IPL 2022 schedule, the Mumbai Indians (MI) will take on the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in match number 33 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai on Thursday.

The rivalry is dubbed as the El Clasico of the IPL as MI and CSK are two of the T20 league’s most successful franchises. The story, however, has been vastly different this season as both IPL teams are struggling.

Forced to revamp their sides at the IPL mega-auction, neither Mumbai nor Chennai have been able to recapture their old glory. MI, who have won the most IPL titles (5), have lost all the six matches they have played in this year’s edition.

CSK, who are the defending champions and have won only one of their six games, are second on the list of most titles won (4) and have also entered the list of IPL winners.

In the head-to-head battle, Mumbai have a significant 19-13 lead over Chennai. However, neither side will have the upper hand considering their below-par performances this season. Given the history between the teams, though, there will be plenty of pride at stake in the contest.

Chennai won the toss and have opted to field first. Speaking about the decision, skipper Ravindra Jadeja said:

“The wicket looks a bit damp so we want to take advantage. It might also spin a bit initially and the dew might come in the second half.”

Chennai have made two changes to their playing XI - Dwaine Pretorius and Mitchell Santner replace Moeen Ali and Chris Jordan. Mumbai have three changes - Riley Meredith, Hrithik Shokeen and Daniel Sams are all part of the playing XI.
