Regarded as the El Clasico of cricket, the match between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) in the Indian Premier League (IPL) is often regarded as one of the most high-octane and action packed game.

The MS Dhoni led side have furthermore bolstered their side for IPL 2023 with the addition of English all-rounder Ben Stokes. Stokes is one of the best all-rounders in the world and he can simply breathe fire with the ball and with the ball.

It remains to be seen whether Ben Stokes will bowl in IPL 2023 as he is recovering from a knee injury. With the ICC ODI World Cup 2023 in mind, the English cricketer might play as a specialist batter for CSK.

Mukesh Chowdhary has been ruled out of IPL 2023 but CSK have enough replacements to cover up for him.

Mumbai Indians

5-time IPL winners Mumbai Indians finished with the wooden spoon in IPL 2022. They had a disastrous campaign and finished with only 4 wins in 14 games.
