Why the CSK vs MI Rivalry Matters
Chennai Super Kings have won 5 IPL titles (2010, 2011, 2018, 2021, 2023) and finished runners-up in 2008, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2019. Mumbai Indians have won 5 IPL titles (2013, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2020) and finished runners-up in 2010.
This is the IPL’s El Clasico: the two most successful franchises, with ten titles between them. They have met in four finals (2010, 2013, 2015 and 2019), and Mumbai won three of those. The 2019 final in Hyderabad was settled by a single run on the last ball. For a decade the fixture pitted MS Dhoni’s calm against Rohit Sharma’s Mumbai machine, and the head-to-head has stayed within a couple of wins either way for most of that time.
Over 41 meetings spread across 17 seasons, the fixture has produced 9 playoff meetings, and its highest-scoring game (1 May 2021) produced 437 runs in total.
