Manish Khorgade brings a wealth of knowledge in cricket and stats to the world of cricket betting. He was hooked on cricket as a 9-year-old back in 1992 during the ODI World Cup. Those iconic semi-finals watched along with his father left an indelible mark on him. He hasn't left cricket since. Or, more appropriately, it's the other way around.
About 13 years into the IT industry, he decided to shift base and follow cricket, wherever it might take him. Manish started with content writing for various publications. He, along with his friends, created GameOfStats - a statistics portal for fantasy sports enthusiasts - helping them create stats-based fantasy teams. He is currently a jack of all things and master of a few on this very portal - cricket-betting.com.
Being a stats expert, he spends time understanding the odds provided by the sportsbooks for various markets. He is astounded by how very little has been done when it comes to using cricket stats in predicting the outcome of an event. He aspires to change that.
Manish loves it when an underdog wins the game. He doesn’t have any favourite cricketers. Only the ones that inspire him more than others. He considers MS Dhoni to be the closest to a perfect sportsman - Brains, Brawn and Nerves. He also thinks Ben Stokes is a superstar and that Ravindra Jadeja should have some fielding drills named after him.
Manish wishes to visit major sports venues across the world. Until then he is busy talking, writing, analyzing, and debating all things cricket.

The clash will take place at the Wankhede Stadium and will commence at 7:30 PM IST.

The cricket prediction of this IPL match is what follows in this article with an analysis of both teams in action:
Mumbai Indians Preview
MI have yet again proved that they are the slow starters in IPL. After losing three matches on the trot, they have won two on the bounce and have a chance to climb up the table by adding two more points to their tally.
But their game is against the defending champions CSK and it is the biggest rivalry in IPL history. Suryakumar Yadav returning to form is the best news for the five-time champions and the likes of Rohit Sharma and Jasprit Bumrah are also doing well which keeps MI in good shape ahead of the marquee encounter.
Mumbai Indians - Who Will Be The Best Batter?
If Surya is playing well, Mumbai Indians look stronger than ever. The man nonchalantly announced his arrival to the season with a 17-ball half-century against RCB. It never looked like he was away from the game for more than three months.
He ended with 52 runs off just 19 balls with a strike rate of 273.68 smashing five fours and four sixes. Another such outing for Surya will easily two more points to MI’s tally.

Mumbai Indians - Who Will Be The Best Bowler?
When you have Jasprit Bumrah in your team, there is nothing to worry about. He has been bowling superbly this season and was at his best against RCB picking up a sensational five-wicket haul. Bumrah returned with magical figures of 5/21 on a surface where 395 runs were scored in 35.3 overs.
Bumrah is a genius and MI will need him to pick wickets to restrict a power-packed unit of CSK. He is also the purple cap holder at the moment having picked 10 wickets this season so far.

Chennai Super Kings Preview
Chennai Super Kings are sitting pretty in the points table at the moment with three wins from five games. But the worrying sign for them is their form away from home. All of their wins have come at Chepauk and both their losses came in Vizag and Hyderabad.
Captain Ruturaj will be aware of the team’s shortcomings and with the next challenge being MI, the defending champions will have to play their best game to register their first away win of the season.
Chennai Super Kings - Who Will Be The Best Batter?
Ruturaj Gaikwad found his form at the right time for CSK. The captain led from the front in the modest chase scoring an unbeaten 67 off 58 deliveries.
The team will be hoping for a similar effort at a better strike rate from him at the Wankhede Stadium. If Ruturaj gets going, he can convert the start into a big one. Overall, he has scored 155 runs at an average of 38.75 and a strike rate of 117.42.

Chennai Super Kings - Who Will Be The Best Bowler?
If Pathirana is not playing, Mustafizur Rahman is the best bet for CSK in this match. The man has picked nine wickets so far in just four matches at an average of 14.22 and a strike rate of 10.6.
Mustafizur is a death overs specialist for CSK this year and has done well thus far picking wickets at the right time. If he gets his line and length right, the left-arm pacer is very hard to get away with, thanks to his variations.
