IPL 2026: Raghu Handed Debut, Krish Returns As MI Elect To Bat First Against CSK
Chennai Super Kings: Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bat first against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in Match 44 for Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Saturday. It is a must-win clash for both teams in part two of the ‘El Clásico’ clash of the IPL if they are to keep themselves in contention for the playoffs.
After winning the toss, MI captain Hardik Pandya said leg-spinner Raghu Sharma gets his debut while Krish Bhagat returns to the playing eleven. Raghu, though, will come in as an Impact Player in MI’s second innings. He was a support bowler with MI last year and was drafted in late last season as a replacement player.
“Looks like a good track. The way we batted in the last game, we want to give our batters another opportunity to score runs. We have to play our best cricket and see what happens. The mood has been good; it's been challenging. We have to fight. It's about playing for pride as well. Play good cricket overall. In 40 overs, we've lost the game in 2-3 overs, which were big moments,” he said.
