I already put my chips on CSK . It's fine if they don't win too though because now since I have placed money the match will be more exciting hehe .
And according to me it doesn't matter who wins or loses , the final will be MI v CSK .

Seems like the bookies are favoring MI. I think this is the first time I have seen odd against CSK in this season. I am extra careful in gambling because this IPL was a lose for me :-P

I think if MI lose today then DC will have a good chance to face CSK in the final.

I am thinking the complete reverse here. I am expecting CSK to go through to the final while SRH will eliminate DC in the eliminator. Will be watching these final matches carefully. This is going to be fun.

I have no hope left for SRH after Warner and Jonny Bairstow left the team. The whole team is imbalance when it comes to batting. The bowling department is not performing well too. On the other hand DC is a young team and they have some very good batsmen and also bowlers who have performed very well through the entire tournament.

So I will side for DC in between DC vs SRH match.

DC has performed better than SRH in the whole tournament and with Warner and Bairstow not in the team, it would be easier to DC.
Though DC had some batting lineup collapse in this tournament. Hope that won't be repeated in this knock out match.

Well, Chennai scored below par today. MI did good today with the ball, now time for Batsmen to perform. it could be tricky chase with couple of early wickets, I am rooting for MI here.

Bumrah love affair with No-Ball wicket still going on. hopefully not in World cup matches.

Edit

Rohit gone

Yeh but defending 131 runs is hard and honestly speaking very hard. I don't think CSK is going to defend this score. I think de kock will play a good knock out today. He is looking good.

Note: CSK needs to check extra runs.

Chennai player poorly today but they still have chance since MI lose 2 wickets earlier, It's time for Ishan Kishan to prove him, need to score a half century. I am expecting MI to win this match.

De kock was trapped by Harbhajan Singh. Good for CSK but still a long way to go for them if they want to win this match. Now, still it's easier to take MI's side.

I don't why know CSK could not score some runs. The wickets were there.

CSK manage to just score just 131 runs and only 4 wickets were down . Isn’t something just does not seems to be right as so less score where you still have wickets in hand . MI should take advantage and win it from here else bowlers efforts will go in vain.

My question is the same. What was wrong with their batting or it was the bowling of MI? The pitch is still very good and MI is scoring easily.

Dhoni 37 runs from 29 balls
Rayudu 42 runs from 37 balls

Just do not adds up. :-(

Such a low scoring match and everyone has put their bet on CSK. I can see MI playing really well so my hopes are low but being in Chennai, CSK need to win this match. 2 more wickets will increase the run rate so hope CSK manage to take these wickets soon as the RR is already 6.65 which is more than enough to win the match. MI are not even taking much risks and are getting singles in almost every ball. Things look bad now.

MSD and Rayudu played well actually, but the remaining batsmen did not contribute properly and MI played brilliantly here. Their bowlers lineup is easily their best bowling lineup among all their seasons.

MI will cruise through to the final unless CSK manages to grab a couple more wickets soon.

I am not seeing any obstacle for MI at the moment. They are batting well. 87 runs and lost only two wickets after 12.4 over. There are no emergency for them. MI is in the final for sure.

I am smelling  a final between DC and MI.

DC have less chance. CSK is always weak against MI. For your info, CSK probably last won against MI in 2010, if I am correct.
I can bet they will play better on next match against DC/SRH and win.

It was the betting that was worse for CSK today. There batsmen were not playing up to theh mark.

Okay so, if CSK manage the final then according to you MI will be the champion? Please don't coz I had a outright bet for CSK to win LOL

MI vs CSK a match where the two good teams going to play against each other to get a direct entry into the finals. Both teams have being playing well and both are champions as well who know how to take their team into the finals and win it.

My bet is for CSK. In fact I think they will life the cup. Experienced team mate, top class captaincy from Dhoni, know how to win a tournament (from the previous years) - CSK has everything to be the champion again.

I am also a fan of CSK for the captaincy of MS DHONI. And also was a hope that the match will go to CSK. But unfortunately, CSK lost the game. But I have hope that CSK will go to the finale and we can see another win by CSK.

Withdraw your bet if possible with a little incentives. At least history says MI will win against CSK and I have seen this for a lot of times. And you can't deny too that MI still far better team than CSK only without the captaincy.

Lol. Are you kidding? MI is a powerful team for sure, but calling them a better team than CSK is stupidity. CSK and MI are both the most successful teams in the IPL with 3 wins each.

CSK managed to continue winning even after coming back from a ban of 2 years which is saying something. Both are equally powerful in their own ways.

As said it happened that MI has beaten CSK easily and are in the finals . But do expect CSK to bounce back and be in finals . Somehow both this team only are lifting the trophy . It would be better if some other team win this time the IPL.

MI is certainly the best performing team this year. CSK had had it's days. I do believe DC or if they won, SRH could defeat CSK to reach the finals. I believe the finals would be a new and interesting combination of Mumbai vs Delhi.

Delhi and Chennai would be a good match to watch. In their last game, CSK had a large victory with the batting lineup of Delhi collapsing against the CSK bowling attack. Delhi's team might be good it's not dependable and as balanced as of CSK.
