Mumbai Indians (MI) and Chennai Super Kings (CSK) will renew their rivalry and square off in the El Clasico of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 at the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday (April 14).

Since MI and CSK are in different groups, the league stage match between them could also be their only fixture of the season. As the two teams are gearing up to the marquee fixture, Rohit Sharma is eyeing an elite batting record.

With 732 runs, Rohit is at the second spot in the list of batsmen with the most runs in CSK-MI fixtures. He is just four runs short of Suresh Raina’s tally and can overtake him in the upcoming fixture. Raina tops the list of batsmen with the most runs in matches between MI and CSK.
