Kieron Pollard played one of the most memorable innings in the history of the IPL as Mumbai Indians defeated Chennai Super Kings (CSK) by four wickets here at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday.

MI and CSK head into the match after identical seven-wicket wins over Rajasthan Royals and Sunrisers Hyderabad respectively and both teams would be keen to continue their winning streak

With 10 points from six games, CSK are level on points with second-placed Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) and lead third-placed Delhi Capitals by two points. They, however, have a far superior net run rate (NRR) than RCB.

CSK had an underwhelming 2020 season but the team, packed with seasoned players, is now displaying the efficiency it is known for

Big on paper, KKR, led by England's World Cup winning skipper Eoin Morgan, have so far failed to come together as a unit and slipped to sixth in the table

At one stage, KKR was left reeling at 31/5 but Andre Russell and Pat Cummins played knocks of 54 and 66 to keep Eoin Morgan's side in the hunt, but CSK managed to hold their nerve to register a thrilling victory.

Faf du Plessis, Chahar star in CSK’s close win

After their abject campaign in UAE last year, the CSK started the season in an ominous fashion, losing to Delhi Capitals by seven wickets in a one-sided affair

After posting 188/9 in stipulated 20 overs, Super Kings restricted Sanju Samson-led side to 143/9 in 20 overs

The two sides bounced back after losing their opening fixtures with wins, albeit in contrasting styles

He has been absolutely the heartbeat of CSK, there's no doubt about it. Whether it's performances, guidance or leadership... you run out of things to say about him.

Speaking on Star Sports show Cricket Live, Rahman dedicated songs to CSK stars Dhoni and Raina, "I would like to dedicate the song 'Chale Chalo' from the movie Lagaan to MS Dhoni, as it motivates people to play cricket together.

"As it was his team's first offence of the season under the IPL's Code of Conduct relating to minimum over-rate offences, Dhoni was fined Rs 12 lakh," the IPL statement read.

Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw delivered magnificent performances as they powered Delhi Capitals to a commanding seven-wicket win over CSK in the Indian Premier League (IPL) here at the Wankhede Stadium on Saturday.

The Delhi franchise ended runners-up last season in the UAE and would be aiming to go one better this time and a good start would be what they will be looking for

"My first match as captain will be against Mahi (MS Dhoni) bhai. It will be a good experience for me as I have learned a lot from him," said the Delhi Capitals skipper

On Thursday, CSK posted a video on Twitter in which Dhoni can be seen hammering the ball out of the park during the net session.

He since then missed India’s Test series against England which the hosts won 3-1 to book a berth in the World Test Championship final which will be held in June in Southampton.
