MI vs CSK
The clash between the Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings has long been the most iconic game in the history of the IPL. It is no surprise that the two teams have won the most titles and would be looking to add a sixth trophy to their already rich history. In the upcoming season, the two teams will face off twice. They will first play against each other at the Wankhede Stadium on the 23rd April in a night game. For the return leg of this iconic rivalry, the two champion sides will clash at the MA Chidambaram Stadium with Ruturaj Gaikwad’s CSK playing the hosts on the 2nd of May.
MI vs RCB
The reigning champions, RCB, will be MI’s second home game of the year. The fans would get to see this high-stakes clash twice during the league stage. RCB has always been a crowd favorite because of Virat Kohli. They will undoubtedly be a formidable team on the field as well, given their championship-winning season from the previous year. MI has a 19-15 advantage over its rivals in 34 encounters between the two teams. The MI vs RCB clash on the 12th of April will certainly be a game where both teams will look to take the bragging rights over the other. But the losing team of that clash will get a chance to settle the scores on the 10th of May at the Shaheed Veer Narayan Singh International Stadium in Raipur.
MI vs KKR
The Mumbai Indians’ season will begin with a pivotal matchup against the KKR. In the league stage, they will play the three-time champions twice. Despite the one-sided head-to-head record, the MI vs KKR rivalry has provided the fans with many memorable moments. The Mumbai Indians have won 24 of the 35 games played between the two teams. But the three-time winners have also had some significant victories over MI in recent years. Mumbai Indians’ final game on the road in the league stage will be against KKR at the iconic Eden Gardens on the 20th of May.
