IPL 5 – Match 1 – Chennai Super Kings Versus Mumbai Indians – Who Will Win?

Chennai Has The Home Advantage:

The Super Kings have got the home advantage and this will be a big boost for them as they clash with the most dangerous team in the IPL, the Mumbai Indians. The Mumbai Indians have got the talent of surprising any team in this IPL and they will be looking to do just the same. But the host advantage doesn’t seem to favor the Mumbai Indians as they are the visitors in this first summit clash against the Chennai Super Kings. This home advantage will make Chennai a difficult team to deal with.

Mumbai Has The Advantage Because Of The Bench Strength Of Their Foreigners:

I think the Mumbai Indians have got the maximum chance of winning this match because of their bench strength as far as the foreigners are concerned. Their captain Harbhajan Singh will have a strong discussion in selecting his four foreigners because there are strong lists of players who have proved their talent in various departments of this game. To name a few, Richard Levi, Herschelle Gibbs, Mitchell Johnson, Clint McKay, Lasith Malinga, Kieron Pollard, Thissara Perera, Robin Peterson and so on. But Malinga and Pollard will be an automatic chance in the eleven and which means the captain has got the freedom to choose only two from the above list.

Jadeja Needs To Prove His Worth In This IPL:

Jadeja, who has been purchased for a big price money of nearly 10 crores, needs to prove his worth in this IPL. Everyone considers that this 10 crore is useless for Jadeja and he should have been picked for just 1 or 2 crores. But we can’t predict his form in the Ipl season because he has already won many a matches for the now-banned Kochi Tuskers Kerala in the previous season. But anyway he needs to continue his good form in the IPL and prove that his tag name his worth a ten crore rupees.

Sachin Is Relieved From Century Of Centuries As Well As Captaincy:

Sachin Tendulkar has been relieved from his captaincy pressure as well his elusive hundred hundreds. He got relieved from the century of centuries on March 16, 2012 against Bangladesh where he scored 114 off 147 deliveries. This proved to be a major turning point in his career as he can play like a 16 year old kid hereafter. So, I think this will be a major turning point for the Indians and my prediction is that the Indians will triumph in this encounter.

Chennai Will Miss Hussey:

Chennai Super Kings will miss star batsmen Mike Hussey for the initial stages of the IPL which means that the opening slot is vacant and MSD will be thinking hard to fix a player in the opening slot till the arrival of Mike Hussey. But they have got depth in their batting in their names of Raina, Badrinath and Dhoni and so on…

Tremendous Entertainment To The Fans All Over The World:

I hope that this IPL will provide a tremendous entertainment to all the fans. The nine teams will try their best to take the IPL Cup but only one best team can win this Cup. But it will be interesting to see which team wins the IPL because it’s the most popular Premier League in the World. Good Luck to all the teams! Play well and provide your fans a great entertainment. All the best.
