With spin-friendly conditions at Chepauk, CSK\u2019s strategy revolves around their experienced spin brigade, including Ravindra Jadeja, Ravichandran Ashwin, Noor Ahmad, Shreyas Gopal and Deepak Hooda. <\/p>\n<p>The home team\u2019s recent record against MI also offers confidence, having secured four wins in their last five encounters, including three consecutive victories. MS Dhoni, the iconic CSK skipper, will once again be in the spotlight. <\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, MI will feel the absence of key players, with pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah sidelined due to a back injury and regular skipper Hardik Pandya serving a one-match ban for a slow over-rate in the previous season\u2019s final league game. Suryakumar Yadav will step in as captain, adding stability to the batting lineup alongside Rohit Sharma and Tilak Varma. While MI\u2019s fast-bowling lineup appears depleted. <\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, CSK\u2019s top-order selection dilemma features a choice between New Zealand\u2019s Rachin Ravindra and Devon Conway to partner Ruturaj Gaikwad. <\/p>\n<p>The high-voltage clash will also offer insights into how the new ball-change rule in the second innings impacts the game. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script>\nvar _mfq = window._mfq || [];\n_mfq.push([\"setVariable\", \"toi_titan\", window.location.href]);\n!(function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n    function loadFBEvents(isFBCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isFBCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        if (f.fbq) return;\n        n = f.fbq = function() {\n          n.callMethod ? n.callMethod(...arguments) : n.queue.push(arguments);\n        };\n        if (!f._fbq) f._fbq = n;\n        n.push = n;\n        n.loaded = !0;\n        n.version = '2.0';\n        n.queue = [];\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js', n, t, s);\n      fbq('init', '593671331875494');\n      fbq('track', 'PageView');\n    };\n    function loadGtagEvents(isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n      if (!isGoogleCampaignActive) {\n        return;\n      }\n      var id = document.getElementById('toi-plus-google-campaign');\n      if (id) {\n        return;\n      }\n      (function(f, b, e, v, n, t, s) {\n        t = b.createElement(e);\n        t.async = !0;\n        t.defer = !0;\n        t.src = v;\n        t.id = 'toi-plus-google-campaign';\n        s = b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n        s.parentNode.insertBefore(t, s);\n      })(f, b, e, 'https:\/\/www.googletagmanager.com\/gtag\/js?id=AW-877820074', n, t, s);\n    };\n    function loadSurvicateJs(allowedSurvicateSections = []){\n      const section =  window.location.pathname.split('\/')[1]\n      const isHomePageAllowed = window.location.pathname === '\/' && allowedSurvicateSections.includes('homepage')\n      if(allowedSurvicateSections.includes(section) || isHomePageAllowed){\n        (function(w) {\n         function setAttributes() {\n                    var prime_user_status = window.isPrime ?
