MI vs CSK rivalry similar to Manchester United vs Liverpool clash: Moeen Ali | Cricket News – Times of India

NEW DELHI: Star all-rounder Moeen Ali on Friday compared Chennai Super Kings vs Mumbai Indians IPL rivalry to the storied footballing battle of Premier League giants Manchester United and Liverpool.
Mumbai have won five IPL titles while Chennai are just one behind with four trophies in their cabinet.
Their rivalry – also termed as the El Clasico of the IPL – is tilted in favour of MI, who have 20 wins to show in 34 meetings with CSK.
CSK all-rounder Moeen termed the clash as one of the biggest matches for any cricketer to play outside of international cricket.
“In football’s point of view it is like Manchester United playing Liverpool. These are huge games,” Moeen told the media during the team’s training session at the Wankhede Stadium.
Moeen backed CSK’s strike bowler Deepak Chahar, who struggled in the opening two matches against Gujarat Titans and Lucknow Super Giants, saying he needs more game time.
“I think the only thing he is lacking is game time. He had a bad injury and is coming back after a long time. Unless you can bowl in a proper game which you need as a bowler, he will get better as the tournament goes on.
“He is a big bowler for us and when he gets it right he gets three or four wickets in the powerplay,” Moeen said.
