CSK VS MI Dream11 Prediction Today Match 44: Fantasy Cricket Tips, Captain & Vice-Captain Choices, Playing XI  – Indian Premier League 2026

CSK VS MI Match 44 Dream11 Team Prediction for Indian Premier League 2026 Preview: It is time for round two of El Clásico in the Indian Premier League 2026. The two teams with ten IPL titles between each other will lock horns in the upcoming contest. Chennai Super Kings will host Mumbai Indians in match no. 44. This contest will begin at 7:30 PM IST on Saturday at Chepauk Stadium in Chennai. These two teams have played 8 matches each and have a difference of only two points on the points table. Hence, this game can end that gap also. 

In the previous game between these two sides, CSK recorded a massive win by 103 runs over Mumbai Indians. Sanju Samson scored a sparkling century, and CSK posted 207 runs on the board. Samson scored 101 off 54 balls. In reply, only two MI batters scored in the double-digit. MI have been poor this season and have lost six out of 8 matches played in the IPL 2026. 

They had an improved batting performance in the last game, and they scored 243, with a century from Ryan Rickleton, who scored an unbeaten 123 off 55 balls. But MI bowlers failed to defend the total against SRH, and this was the highest chase against MI in the IPL. For CSK, they had a poor batting display against GT, and they were bowled out for 158 runs. Runs from Captain Ruturaj Gaikwad were a big positive, but the other batters have been struggling.

CSK VS MI Dream11 Team Prediction – Who Will Win? 

Both teams are going through a rough phase. CSK have only Samson, who has scored runs consistently, who is also not in the top 10 scorers this season. None of their current batters have shown any form. Apart from Samson, Gaikwad is CSK’s next batter at the 35th spot, among the current lot. That tells the whole story about CSK’s struggle with the bat. 

Adding to that, the injuries to their bowling unit have dented the confidence as well. On the other hand, MI also have a similar issue. They have three individual centuries and four half-centuries in 8 matches, and most of them have come in a losing cause. Jasprit Bumrah is having his toughest IPL season, and if he is going for a run, you can think about what other MI bowlers are going through. But CSK at home are still better. Hence, CSK will start this game as favorites over MI.
