CSK vs MI Live streaming details, when & how to watch Match 44 of IPL 2026

The CSK vs MI, match 44 of IPL 2026, will take place on May 2.
Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to clash tonight in the Indian Premier League 2026. CSK have the home advantage in the encounter as it will take place at the MA Chidambaram Stadium.
Although MI and CSK are the most successful teams with 5 titles each, IPL 2026 has been a horrible season for them. Moreover, the tournament has entered the second phase, and both MI and CSK are among the least favourites to book a berth in the playoffs.
Having won just three and lost five out of eight matches, Ruturaj Gaikwad & Co. are stuck in seventh spot in the points table with six points. The Hardik Pandya & Co. have won just two matches and lost six out of eight. They languish in the ninth spot in the points table with four points.
Despite MI and CSK’s poor form, their upcoming clash will attract a huge number of viewers due to their large fan base and past rivalry. Mumbai will aim to avenge their last defeat against CSK; however, it will be a big challenge due to Chennai’s better balance in bowling and batting.
For the Mumbai Indians, Rohit Sharma’s availability remains doubtful as he recovers from a hamstring injury. On the other hand, MS Dhoni has recovered from his calf injury but has stayed away from the field to not interfere with the team combination.
Ahead of the clash, below are the head-to-head records, live streaming, live telecast, match time, venue, and toss details for the CSK vs MI.
