It's CSK vs MI playoff time at IPL 6, watch it live online

BANGALORE, INDIA: It's the business end of the sixth season of the Indian Premier League (IPL 6), but both the Chennai Super Kings (CSK) and the Mumbai Indians (MI) have some unfinished business, as they gear up to outwit each other in the first playoff game at the Feroze Shah Kotla Stadium in New Delhi tonight.

When it comes to the knockout stages - well, not this game, since CSK and MI have qualified first and second and as a result, the loser of the two will have another go at the coveted trophy in the upcoming Qualifier - of the tournament leading up to the final, CSK holds the edge, as it has been there and done that in all the preceding five seasons. Not to forget, it has won playoff encounters against MI on both occasions they faced off during earlier editions.

Yet, where the 'Whistle Podu' boys are hurting is from the two defeats in as many matches against the 'Men in Blue' at IPL 6. They would certainly like to put the record straight and hope to continue with their playoff form - it's a 7 out of 10 for CSK so far.

MI will do well to remember that they are yet to win the IPL trophy even once in five editions, despite being one of the strongest units among all. In its case, the power on paper has to transform to prowess on field.

And it's a neutral venue, which means any bias or lop-sided support is negated. Having said that, not many CSK fans or MI fans would make it to the Kotla. So, where else can they catch the live action?
