IPL 2026 MI vs CSK Memes: Sanju Samson’s Century Powers Chennai Super Kings to Massive 103-Run Win Over Mumbai Indians
Sanju Samson’s unbeaten 101 leads CSK to a dominant 103-run win over MI after Akeal Hosein’s 4-wicket spell at Wankhede.
Chennai Super Kings crushed Mumbai Indians by 103 runs in Match 33 of IPL 2026 at Wankhede Stadium on April 23. It turned into a one-sided game as CSK dominated with both bat and ball.
CSK put up a huge total of 207 for 6 after being asked to bat. Mumbai never looked in control during the chase and were bowled out for just 104 in 19 overs.
Sanju Samson was the star of the night with a superb unbeaten 101 off 54 balls. He paced his innings well and attacked in the final overs to take the game away.
His knock also created history, as he became the first CSK batter to score a century against Mumbai Indians in IPL history.
Ruturaj Gaikwad gave a steady start with 22 off 14 balls, while Dewald Brevis added a quick 21 off 11. The strong finish helped CSK cross the 200 mark comfortably.
Mumbai bowlers had a tough outing. AM Ghazanfar and Ashwani Kumar picked up two wickets each, but they leaked runs in the death overs.
Match Summary
Mumbai’s chase started in the worst possible way. They lost three wickets in the first three overs and never recovered from that early damage.
Tilak Varma tried to hold one end with 37 off 29 balls, while Suryakumar Yadav scored 36 off 30. But the lack of partnerships hurt MI badly.
Akeal Hosein delivered a match-winning spell, taking 4 wickets for just 17 runs. His wicket-maiden over broke MI’s back completely.
CSK’s spinners clearly made the difference. They picked up 6 wickets for just 41 runs, keeping the pressure on throughout the innings.
In comparison, MI’s spinners struggled and gave away 69 runs for only 3 wickets, allowing CSK to build a big total.
Mumbai also had a poor powerplay, scoring just 29 for 3, which is their lowest in IPL 2026 so far.
This win gives CSK a big boost in the points table, while MI will need to quickly fix their batting issues going forward.
