IPL 2019, Match 44 – CSK vs MI: Dream11 Cricket Tips – Playing XI, Pitch Report And Injury Update
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) won their last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Chepauk and almost sealed a berth in the playoffs for this edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). MS Dhoni & Co. lost two games in a row but came out firing on all cylinders to thump the Orange Army at their home where they were unbeaten this season before that. The table-toppers will next play Mumbai Indians (MI) tomorrow.
On the contrary, Mumbai is placed third on the points table with six victories from 10 matches, however, defeating CSK in Chennai won’t be a cakewalk by any means. Nevertheless, having lost to MI in their previous meeting, the Super Kings would be well aware that Rohit Sharma’s men would come hard at them once again. In fact, CSK last defeated Mumbai at the Chepauk way back in April 2010.

Pitch Condition/Report:
A couple of days ago, the Chepauk hosted its first game in two weeks and it turned out to be a belter. In the first few games, the track assisted the spinners and run-making was an arduous task. The deck in the next game is expected to be better for batting.
