Handed a reality check in their last league fixture, defending champions Chennai Super Kings will bank on home advantage to seal their place in the summit clash when they take on a confident Mumbai Indians in Qualifier 1 here today for a place in the May 12 final. Both CSK and MI have won the title thrice earlier.

The MS Dhoni-led CSK has been patchy after a strong start and finished its league engagements with a six-wicket defeat to Kings XI Punjab on Sunday. But CSK will be happy to be in their den to take on table-toppers MI, its biggest rival.
