The final match of the ongoing 12th season of the Indian Premier League will be played between Mumbai Indians and Chennai Super Kings at Hyderabad tomorrow. In what will be the fourth encounter between the two giant IPL teams this season, Indians will be banking on them remaining unbeaten against Super Kings in the previous three matches.
The fact that MI are the only IPL team to have a better Head-to-Head record against CSK also goes in their favour. While Mumbai have bettered Chennai at both Wankhede (7-5) and Chepauk (6-2), it is the defending champions who surpass MI while playing at neutral venues (5-4).
What incredible game by both the teams @ChennaiIPL & @DelhiCapitals.
It’s so special to be in the finals again. Let’s do it again #CSK 🙌 #WhistlePodu pic.twitter.com/CdKFuKj0ZZ— Suresh Raina🇮🇳 (@ImRaina) May 10, 2019

In the two matches which Indians and Super Kings played against each other during the league phase, Indians defeated Super Kings at both home and away. After CSK captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni won the toss and put the opposition in to bat on both occasions, MI successfully defended 170 and 155 runs in Mumbai and Chennai respectively.
During their face-off in Qualifier 1 at Chennai earlier this week, Dhoni once again won the toss but elected to bat first. Despite an unbeaten 66-run partnership for the fifth wicket between Dhoni (42) and Ambati Rayudu (37), Chennai Super Kings could only post 131/4 in 20 overs.
On the back of Suryakumar Yadav’s 54-ball 71* in the second innings, Mumbai Indians sealed the chase in the penultimate over with six wickets remaining.
