The 12th game of the ongoing Indian Premier League 2023 saw Chennai Super Kings lock horns with Mumbai Indians. The fans were anticipating a good game as they are the two most successful sides. MI is the most successful team with five titles whereas CSK has won four IPL trophies. However, as it turned out, the five-time winners were brutally thrashed by the Super Kings.
After being asked to bat first, Mumbai had a good start as Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan made good use of the powerplay. After the duo fell, the Kings' spinners, Ravindra Jadeja and Mitchell Santner strangled hold of the opposition with five wickets combined. In the end, thanks to Tim David's cameo, the former champions reached 157/8.
In reply, the visitors, Chennai had a poor start as they lost the wicket of Devon Conway. However, this brought Ajinkya Rahane into the crease and he smashed a 19-ball 50, the fastest in the tournament. His 61 off 27 helped the team gain control of the game and eventually won by seven wickets and 11 balls left. Meanwhile, ahead of the game, former India cricketer Aakash Chopra made different predictions.
Fans are trolling Aakash Chopra as his predictions go wrong
It is often seen that predicting anything will go wrong most times and go right only a few times. The same thing happened with Chopra, who predicted MI's win and other results. He predicted Suryakumar Yadav and Cameron Green would combine for 65 plus runs. Apart from this, the former India cricketer also predicted Jofra Archer and Deepak Chahar taking three wickets each.
Notably, the former missed out due to an elbow injury while Chahar got injured during the game. Chopra also predicted 10 plus sixes in the game. However, nine sixes were hit in the game.
