Mumbai Indians Vs Chennai Super Kings, Live Streaming: Likely XIs, Head-to-head, How To Watch IPL 2021 Match

Check match and telecast details of IPL 2021 match 27, between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings

This is it. The clash of titans. The meeting of the two most successful sides in the history of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Brace yourself for a wild ride. Well, nothing less than an epic will do for cricket fans when defending champions Mumbai Indians take on Chennai Super Kings in the 27th match of the 2021 edition of the world's richest T20 cricket league. And both the teams have the riches, in terms of everything, that few could rival.

Rohit Sharma's Mumbai Indians have seemingly gained an upper hand in this famed rivalry, but this season, MS Dhoni's Chennai Super Kings have emerged as the proverbial phoenix -- losing only once in six outings so far. And they are the team to beat.

MI, traditionally the worst starters, are fourth, four points behind pace-setters CSK (10 points), with six points from six matches. But they can hit the reset bottom anytime they want, as witnessed in their last outing against Rajasthan Royals. But again, against this CSK side, the five-time champions will need to play some cricket for a win.

Both the sides are studded with star players. Besides the captains, there are Keiron Pollard, Hardik Pandya, Quinton de Kock, Jasprit Bumrah, Trent Boult, etc in the Mumbai camp; and Faf du Plessis, Moeen Ali, Suresh Raina, Ravindra Jadeja, Sam Curran, Shardul Thakur, Ruturaj Gaikwad, Moeen Ali, etc in the Chennai camp. The richness!

Head-to-head: This will be their 31st meeting. Mumbai Indians lead the head-to-head record 18-12. They shared the honours last season, but Mumbai have won six out of the eight games played.
