How we made this Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians toss prediction

We do not predict who wins the coin flip itself; that is genuinely 50/50. We predict what the toss winner will choose to do. For this match, our pre-toss call was made in the article body before the toss happened. The result above shows whether the captain actually followed our predicted decision.

CSK vs MI toss prediction FAQ

Who won the CSK vs MI toss?

Mumbai Indians won the CSK vs MI toss and chose to bat first.

What did the toss winner choose in CSK vs MI?

Mumbai Indians chose to bat first. Our pre-toss call was bat first — the captain did what we predicted.

How does the toss affect the CSK vs MI match odds?

Meaningfully. MA Chidambaram Stadium favours batting first (chases succeed only 44% of the time here), so our model shifts the match win probability by about 2 percentage points depending on which side ends up chasing. A pre-toss match price averages both branches, so the toss result itself can create or kill value on the match market.
