Watch the live stream of Chennai Super Kings v Mumbai Indians in the 2013 IPL final.
It’s the biggest game of the 2013 IPL as Chennai Super Kings take on Mumbai Indians in the final.
After 16 league games and two qualifiers it’s finally the decider for who will be crowned champions of the sixth edition of the Twenty20 tournament.
These two franchises finished first and second in the league stage of the competition and CSK progressed straight to the final by beating Mumbai in the first qualifier.
Mumbai then had to overcome a difficult encounter with Rajasthan Royals on Friday to book their place in the last two.
Chennai boast the leaders of both the Orange and Purple Cap awards for most runs and wickets respectively.
Veteran Australian Mike Hussey has scored a combined 732 so far and looks odds-on favourite to take the award, as second placed Chris Gayle is out of the tournament after his side Royal Challengers Bangalore were eliminated.
With the ball Dwayne Bravo has taken 28 scalps but he will face stiff competition from Mumbai’s in-form attack of Harbhajan Singh, Mitchell Johnson and Lasith Malinga.
In the middle captain Rohit Sharma has looked solid with the bat but his opposite number, MS Dhoni, is equally as impressive at the crease.
This should be a brilliant encounter between two sides who have looked good all season.
