Mumbai Indians Ensure Chennai Super Kings can't enter IPL 2022 Last 4

Whatever chances Chennai Super Kings had in qualifying for the last four were successfully extinguished by Mumbai Indians. By defeating CSK, Mumbai Indians have given themselves some hope they may not land up with the Wooden spoon. It is really a sorry state of affairs that two high proficient teams have ended up in the bottom rung in this IPL. While CSK can blame Jadeja's captaincy and some close matches going against them, Mumbai Indians game never rose with their Captain Rohit Sharma himself of not displaying his histrionics. CSK have also been guilty of letting go some of theiir match winners like Du Plessis and Josh Hazlewood. It would have been a different battle game had these two played for CSK! Any case, better luck to both in the next IPL!

Coming back to the match, CSK were done in by the seaming conditions and folded up for less than 100 runs. DRS not working due to a power cut didn't help CSK either. We were not sure as to why generators were not kept ready for such a crucial match and one that generates so much in revenue. The organizers would need to be blamed. In their reply, Mumbai Indians rattled up the score with 5 overs to spare. Some come back by Mumbai Indians but too late. Let's see who amongst these two end up with the wooden spoon this time.
