IPL6 Qualifier1 Live stream: Live stream Online of CSK v MI

Sachin Tendulkar is a doubtful starter as Mumbai Indians take on Chennai Super Kings in Qualifier 1 of IPL6 at Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in Delhi on Tuesday.Mumbai skipper Rohit Sharma told Times of India they would take a call on his fitness on the day of the match.
Tendulkar has been in sublime form before injury forced him to miss the the clashes against Rajashasthan Royals and Kings XI Punjab.
Mumbai will have to choose between Glenn Maxwell and Dwayne Smith if he is unavailable to play.
There is little to separate two-time champions Chennai and Mumbai though both teams come into the match after suffering losses against Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kings XI Punjab in their last league encounters.
Both teams have won 11 matches and are only separated by a difference of 0.09 in the Net Run Rate factor.

Although Chennai are favourites having won eight of the 13 matches played between the two teams, Mumbai hold the edge over them this season.
Mumbai restricted the hosts to 139 for nine and won by nine runs in the first match and routed them by 60 after dismissing Chennai to their lowest IPL total of 79.
But the MS Dhoni-led CSK have always delivered the knockout punch when it mattered most having defeated MI in the Final of IPL 2010 and in the Eliminator the follow year.
CSK also have a better record than MI away from home having won five as against three.
In their matches at Delhi earlier this season, CSK defeated hosts Delhi Daredevils by 86 runs while MI lost to DD by 9 wickets despite posting 161 on the board.

With the Kotla track traditionally favouring spin, all eyes will be on R Ashwin and Ravindra Jadeja from CSK and Harbhajan Singh and Pragyan Ojha for MI.

On the batting front, CSK spearheaded by the prolific Michael Hussey have plenty of depth with Suresh Raina being in terrific form.MI have the big-hitting all-rounder Kieron Pollard while the added burden of captaincy has not affected the form of Rohit Sharma.
The winner of this match will advance to final on May 26 and the loser in this match will get a second chance when they clash with the winner of the Eliminator (Rajasthan Royals v Sunrisers Hyderabad) in Qualifier 2 on May 24.Yours favorite sports portal from Nepal www.anantasports.com will bring Live stream online of the match to its readers.Stay with us till the Match begins.
