However, the two sides have made a very poor start to IPL 2022. CSK only have one win under their belt while MI are yet to open their account.
Speaking on what the rivalry against CSK means to him, Ishan Kishan said during the pre-match interview:
MI and CSK split their two meetings in the previous IPL season. They have now returned to the venue where they played the first out of their four finals - the DY Patil Stadium.
Speaking about his conversation with Sachin Tendulkar following the loss against the Lucknow Super Giants, Kishan said:
Since starting the tournament with a couple of 50s, Kishan has been struggling for runs of late. He has scored only 56 runs in his last four innings with a strike rate of 71.5.

“We will try to remain one step ahead of CSK” - Ishan Kishan
CSK are coming into this game after a heartbreaking three-wicket defeat against the Gujarat Titans (GT) at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Sunday. The franchise has not been off to a good start under Ravindra Jadeja’s reign and is desperate for a win, much like its arch-rivals.
Despite their poor form, Ishan Kishan isn’t taking them lightly. Noting the importance of experienced players in the CSK squad, the MI wicket-keeper said:
According to the IPL schedule 2022, MI will face CSK shortly at the DY Patil Stadium in a bid to get their first points of the IPL 2022.
