Punjab Kings are under pressure after a defeat to Delhi Capitals exposed flaws in their bowling attack. Despite scoring over 200, they failed to defend the total—raising concerns before a critical clash. With top-two hopes alive, PBKS need both a win and favourable results from GT and RCB’s games. Shreyas Iyer and the in-form opening pair of Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya remain key to setting a strong platform. Bowling options like Arshdeep Singh and possibly Yuzvendra Chahal (if fit) must deliver against MI’s power-packed batting. Punjab’s focus will be on tightening their death bowling and maintaining batting momentum.

MI Playing 11 vs PBKS
Mumbai Indians enter the contest with confidence and a superior net run rate. Jasprit Bumrah’s resurgence, coupled with Trent Boult and Deepak Chahar’s consistency, gives them a distinct edge in bowling. MI’s spinners—Will Jacks and Mitchell Santner—add control in the middle overs. The batting will again rely on the dependable Suryakumar Yadav and captain Hardik Pandya, while Tilak Varma’s poor run remains a concern. Rohit Sharma’s form is crucial, especially with several overseas stars like Rickelton, Bosch and Jacks set to leave after this match. MI will aim for a clinical finish to grab a Qualifier 1 spot.
