Harsha Bhogle: CSK are looking like an ageing boxer in the ring against younger fighters who are throwing more punches than he can handle....

Saurav: With MI having matches against DC & RCB and a very high NRR, they're most likely to be the table topper. 'Looks like, unless they lose to both teams'
Tushar: Back in the past, no matter what the odds were, CSK had always found a way. Not this time though, looks like they have admitted they are finally done and dusted
Jins Jose: Chennai mentally lost the game right at the end of the powerplay. It is well reflected in their bowling changes.
Narendra Eddanapudi: Love this approach from both MI openers. Ishan Kishan enjoys opening the batting and it's not easy to overshadow someone like de Kock at the other end.
Sairam Madireddy: So pleased to see Mumbai Indians go well tonight. I was a little sceptical before the start with Rohit Sharma missing, but his team made sure the intensity wasn't missing with the ball. Quite a smart decision from Pollard to make best use of the conditions. Can't wait to see my team on top after the end of the game.
Teja: The only positive for CSK in this season has been Sam Curran
javed: Just bring Bumrah and get this done with.
Ashish: As a CSK fan, now all I want them is to get is a score above 49.
Abhishek: Ok guys good night! It's over for me tonight and it's over for CSK this season.
Yogesh: This clearly is not the CSK I have been supporting over years. I used to save my anxiety for death overs. Today, I am sipping it up since ball 1.
Harsha Bhogle: I was very keen to see the intent with this CSK team given the situation they are in and the comments swirling around then. Sadly, this is a terrible start. Come on CSK, everyone has favourite teams and affiliations but everyone admires CSK.

Aditya Patil: "Boult-Bumrah is probably the most destructive pair in IPL 2020" -- There's Rabada-Nortje as well. Take your pick.
Vivek: It's do-or-die situation for CSK today. Dhoni and Jaddu shouldn't hold themselves back. Go for an all-out attack, just for a change, and see how it turns out. Frankly, they don't have to lose much now -- Well, they risk the ignominy of a massive thrashing. As I say that, Jadeja goes down your route and perishes.
Sunil Babu: May be that's what Dhoni was saying about spark in youngsters in his squad -- I knew these comments would start to pour in now, but they need to be given a fair run before we form any conclusions. This is world class bowling they're up against.
Firoz M: Feel for Watto 2018 final, 2019 almost pulled off, he hasn't done that bad so far - just behind Faf in runs. hope the youngsters do well :) -- Well, both of them are gone already, but they should get a good run in the team now.
Vamsi: Batting has been a real problem for CSK. Though there are certain changes in the batting lineup today, Dhoni is still due for a big show, Hope he delivers today.
sai saran: Will be a very interesting batting order for CSK upfront. Will young Gaikwad be sent up ahead of Faf. Or will they play as middle-order batters! Also, will Curran be sent down the order to counter the leggie in Chahar and left arm orthodox of Krunal.
Koushick Vaidiya: This looks like a promising line up for CSK with the right mix of youth and experience. I hope they get their much needed energy for the remainder of the tournament.
Mohit: It will be interesting to see who will open the batting with De Kock - Suryakumar Yadav or Ishan Kishan??
