Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will lock horns with Mumbai Indians (MI) in the 41st match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium on Friday.
While Rohit Sharma’s men will be out to consolidate their position in the top half, CSK will be eager to keep their hopes of making it to the playoffs alive. MS Dhoni & Co. will also be keen to secure their second win against MI in the ongoing season.
Pitch Report
Conditions in Sharjah continue to ease up for the bowlers. There’s room for pacers with variations up their sleeve to create problems for batsmen. But, the boundary dimensions are still the same.
180 should be a decent score at this venue, with captain opting to bat first upon winning the toss.
