Five-time champions MI had a terrible campaign last year. They finished bottom of the table with just four victories in 14 league matches, and this season too, they have begun poorly. Rohit Sharma's side faced defeat at the hands of Royal Challengers Bangalore by a margin of 8 wickets in Bangalore. Their bowling looked toothless, even with the inclusion of speedster Jofra Archer. On the other hand, four-time winner CSK began their current season with a loss against defending champions Gujarat Titans but claimed their first win against Lucknow Super Giants in their second game. The two powerhouses will go toe to toe in yet another exciting clash on a super weekend.

MI vs CSK, Match 12: Top Five Picks
- Ruturaj Gaiwkad (CSK): Opening batter Ruturaj Gaikwad has sensationally begun the season as he has struck half-centuries (92 and 57) in both the opening matches. As of game no.9, he is the leading run-getter in IPL 2023 with 149 runs.
- Devon Conway (CSK): Gaikwad's opening partner Devon Conway struck 47 in the last match after getting out for just one run in the opening clash. Overall, the left-handed Kiwi has racked up 300 runs in 9 innings at an average of 37.50 with three fifties.
- Ben Stokes (CSK): Star England all-rounder Ben Stokes is yet to fire in the tournament. The left-handed batter has scores of just 7 and 8 as the big-money signing will finally look to deliver the goods in this fixture.
- Suryakumar Yadav (MI): Suryakumar Yadav scored 15 off 16 in MI's first match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). The right-handed batter has been out of form recently across formats but is a quality and proven performer and could be picked for this tie. Suryakumar has amassed 2051 runs in 68 innings at an average of 33.08 with 15 half-centuries for MI.
- Tilak Varma (MI): Youngster Tilak Varma started the new season where he left off last time. The 20-year-old slammed 84 off just 46 with nine fours and four fours in a losing cause against RCB. He was MI's leading run-getter in IPL 2022, with 397 runs in 14 innings at an average of 36.09.
