In such a situation, this year both the teams have a chance to make the record of winning the most IPL trophies. Before this season, both the teams have got new captains. Ruturaj Gaikwad took over the command of Chennai from Dhoni, while Hardik Pandya was made the captain of Mumbai in place of Rohit Sharma. But the rivalry between both the teams is the same old. This is the El-Clasico match of IPL where two legendary teams come face to face. Aakash Chopra gave a big statement regarding this match Former India cricketer Aakash Chopra has shared some interesting information ahead of the much-awaited clash between Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday, April 14. Chopra has said that everyone should watch Shivam Dubey’s batting in today’s match, he believes that Dubey will wreak havoc against the spinners today. Dubey is eyeing a place in the Indian T20 World Cup team, so he will definitely be trying to give his best performance, especially in front of Hardik Pandya’s team. Regarding Shivam Dubey, Aakash Chopra said- “There is a kid in Chennai, his name is Shivam Dubey, who is actually a Mumbai kid. He has been hitting the ball very hard so far. “In today’s match, he will hit two or three balls towards Marine Drive, one towards Church Gate and one towards Air India Building.” “If you are talking about high-scoring games, you have to go with your six-hitters – find a batsman who has the ability and power to hit sixes consistently and Shivam Dubey definitely has these qualities. He also has fire inside him, and his aim is to make the World Cup team, so he is going to prove to be very lethal.” Along with this, Aakash Chopra has asked Ajinkya Rahane and the CSK department to pay attention to Mustafizur Rahman and Mathisha Pathirana.

India will look to drive home the advantage against an Australia plagued by self-doubt – DTVHINDI
Still in the air: Even though the team management is yet to take a call on his inclusion, Gill makes sure he is match-ready. | Photo Credit: R.V. Moorthy From the broad glass panes of the press box, the sight of Australian cricketers surrounding the pitch for a closer look when the covers were removed briefly, was all too familiar. In this edition of the Border-Gavaskar series, the Australians have been obsessed with the nature of the surface and veered off from their time-tested methods with disastrous consequences. The demon of self-doubt has been Australia’s biggest scourge. With the wily Steve Smith at the helm now, can the visitors turn the corner mentally? Dry pitch The predominantly dry, black-soil pitch with a smattering of red, should encourage spin when the third Test gets underway at the Holkar Stadium here on Wednesday. Leading 2-0 in the four Test series, India will go for the kill. The Indians left the choice of Rohit’s opening partner — either the out-of-form K.L. Rahul or the red hot Shubman Gill — up the air. The in-form Gill should play. Not surprisingly, much focus will be on R. Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja. Ashwin’s run-up and release have rhythm, with his hip drive and the manner in which he pivots being major factors. Although a finger spinner, Ashwin employs both his wrist and fingers to create a variety of deliveries. The one that goes through straight and the delivery that hangs in the air and then drifts away combine with deadly effect with his off-spinners. There is flight, deception and venom. On these surfaces, Jadeja’s quicker-through-the-air variety — he uses the crease capably — is potent. Vicious turn and bounce with the arm-ball slipped in between have fetched Jadeja a whopping 17 wickets so far. Ashwin has 14. And, India’s batting depth has provided the runs for the spin duo to attack. Reinforcement: Mitchell Starc’s addition to the team is good news for Australia as left-arm seamers have traditionally troubled Indian batters. | Photo Credit: Getty Images Good news For Australia, Mitchell Starc’s return is good news; left-arm seamers have traditionally troubled India. Starc will also create the rough for off-spinners Nathan Lyon and Todd Murphy to exploit. Fit again, pace-bowling all-rounder Cameron Green gives Australia the option of playing an additional bowler or a batter. Whatever be the combination, Australia needs to display resilience. It is the lack of faith in their defensive skills on these pitches that has seen the Aussies going for fatal strokes. Unable to pick the length, their footwork has been impacted adversely. The Australians should explore the possibility of playing a lot more off the back-foot and meeting the ball late to frustrate the Indian spinners. The way to go The batters can crouch a little in their stance and shorten their backlift to counter the low bounce and give themselves a lot more time to negate the turning ball off their back-foot. This will open up more scoring areas too. Playing with soft hands in defence and not going…
