This has been a problem of MI this season - their middle order hasn't really stepped up and performed and there is no single half-century score in the last 3 games from any middle order batsman.

In at number 3 will be Suryakumar Yadav. Yadav looked good against KXIP when he hit his first two bowls for boundaries, but he wasn't able to go on and convert his start into a big score and that is something he will be looking to rectify against CSK.

In at number 4 will be Yuvraj Singh. Yuvraj has looked in good touch so far in this IPL, but he wasn't great against KXIP. CSK have a lot of spinners in their ranks and Yuvraj is brilliant against spin, so, he would be looking forward to Wednesday.

In at number 5 will be Ben Cutting. Kieron Pollard hasn't been performing for MI for quite some time now and this may the game where he will be dropped. Cutting is an able replacement for Pollard as he can also strike the ball very hard and the Australian can also ball a bit.
