IPL 2020: CSK has shown an opening match whenever it has played, whereas MI’s performance has been low

The IPL 2020 i.e. the 13th season of the Indian Premier League will begin with a match between the defending champions Mumbai Indians and runners-up Chennai Super Kings. These two teams will go face-to-face on 19 September and the league will also start with both the matches. In this league, Mumbai has been the most successful team by winning the title four times, while Chennai is in second place with three titles. This time the tournament will start with a match between two great teams, but the results that have been generated when these two teams have played the first match of this league are shocking. 

Chennai super kings performance

Let’s talk about Chennai Super Kings first and let us tell you that this team has played a great performance in the season in which they played their first match. In the last 12 years, the Chennai team played the league’s first match in five seasons and was the champion twice, while the team reached the final twice and once the team reached the semi-finals. CSK played the first match in 2009 and reached the semi-finals, while in 2011 this team became the champion. In 2012, this team reached the final, while in 2018 this team became the champion again and in 2019 this team became the runner-up again. 

Whenever CSK played the first match of IPL, the result has been Ghansu

2009: semi-finals

2011: Winner

2012: runners-up

2019: runners-up

Performance of mumbai indians

Now let’s talk about Mumbai Indians, this team has won the title four times, but the year this team has played the opening match, its performance has not been very good. Mumbai have played their first match in six seasons in the last 12 years and have become champions once while the team’s performance has not been good five times. Mumbai played their first match of the season in 2015 and became champions, but the team’s performance after playing the first matches in 2009, 2012, 2014, 2016 and 2018 has been disappointing.  

Whenever Mumbai Indians have played the first match of the season, the result has been something like this

2009: seventh place

2012: third place

2014: fourth place

2015: Winner

2016: fifth place

2018: fifth place
