Chennai has plummeted early in the innings. Some tight bowling from Boult as he forced an outside edge from Faf and wicketkeeper Quinton de Kock took his second catch behind the stumps. What a start for Mumbai Indians.
2 on: CSK 3/3
What a start from Jasprit Bumrah too – a double wicket on the pacemaker as he gave up just three runs.
1.5 about: OUT! Two out of two for Jasprit Bumrah, fired N Jagadeesan (0). CSK 3/3

0.5 overs: OUT! Trent Boult attacks early to send off Ruturaj Gaikwad (0). CSK 0/1
Successful review of Mumbai low birth weight decision when the ball hit the stump of Gaikwad’s leg. Brilliantly arranged by Boult, before the left arm swiftly righted one from the porthole.

TOSS | Mumbai Indians alternate captain Kieron Pollard wins the draw Super Kings of Chennai in Sharjah
Captains in the draw:
MS Dhoni:“The last game we played here, wicket played a little bit better in the second inning, so it wasn’t a big deal. Once we landed here, we had a 14-day break and before that we had a seven-day camp at Chennai and once ‘Here it got a bit difficult with the quarantine and there were some phases where the game got out of hand and the hitting didn’t measure up either. It happens in cricket and there are quite a few reasons why it doesn’t. we’ve been up to the task. Three changes for us. Kedar Jadhav, Shane Watson, Piyush Chawla out and Jagadeesan, Gaikwad and Tahir are in. “
Kieron Pollard:“We’re going bowling first. Don’t expect the wicket to change much and hopefully there will be some dew. We want to qualify for the playoffs first and we still have to go out and play cricket well. We’ve talked about areas that we need to improve and we want to run them in the middle tonight, Rohit is struggling with his left hamstring and hopefully he’ll be in shape soon and take the captaincy. The only change we have is that Saurabh Tiwary is coming for Rohit.“

Launch report:
“I have never been a blade of grass in the 20 years I have seen this pitch, so hitting becomes easy and bowling becomes difficult. With the new ball, fast players will have to throw those 8 meters away and not at the wicket. You have to slide it low and get that quick glide so that it is difficult for the batter to get under the ball. For spinners, it’s a lot like fast players. Death bowling becomes really important in this Portillo and Mumbai, it is very strange that they have not thrown as many yorkers as CSK and they will be very sure to execute those straight yorkers and for CSK, he is concentrating on his strength: the wide yorkers have gone for very few races and they really need to execute it well. The team that wins the toss will want to hit first. “ – Kumar Sangakkara and Murali Kartik
