Jasprit Bumrah has not been at his best this season, and Mumbai Indians have felt the impact. Known for controlling games in the death overs, Bumrah’s dip in form has left MI vulnerable at key moments.

Against CSK, his role becomes even more critical, especially with batters like Shivam Dube and Dewald Brevis capable of accelerating late. If Bumrah finds his rhythm, MI’s bowling attack instantly looks more threatening.

But if the struggles continue, Chennai could once again dominate this fixture. For MI, much depends on their spearhead rediscovering his usual sharpness.
