PBKS vs MI: Match Details

Match: PBKS vs MI 33rd Match (Indian Premier League 2024) 

Date: Thursday, April 18, 2024

Time: 7:30 PM

Venue: Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, Mullanpur, Chandigarh 

PBKS vs MI: Match Overview

Punjab Kings

Despite the fact that Punjab Kings were happy to have Liam Livingstone return to their starting lineup for their most recent match, captain Shikhar Dhawan’s shoulder injury prevented them from playing at full strength. Since he is expected to be out for seven days, stand-in captain Sam Curran is anticipated to captain the team for this game.

Since Jonny Bairstow has been struggling, Dhawan’s runs will be missed at the top of the order. As a result, the middle-order all-rounders will be under more pressure to perform with the bat.

Thankfully, Punjab Kings’ bowling attack has been strong, so everything will depend on how their hitters perform. 

Mumbai Indians

After hitting 105 not out from 63 balls in the previous game against CSK in Match 29, Rohit Sharma must have been wondering what more he needed to do. In this match, he will undoubtedly need more assistance, but with Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Hardik Pandya, Tim David, and Romario Shepherd in the batting order, this should not be an issue.
Jasprit Bumrah has been very effective with the ball in recent games, and he is rarely expensive in any format when he doesn’t get any wickets. Piyush Chawla will probably be left off the team once more because of Muhammad Nabi, who will be a great pace-off option. In addition to those two, Gerald Coetzee and Hardik Pandya are likely to be the threats with the ball in their hands. 

PBKS vs MI: Head-to-head

Mumbai Indians have defeated Punjab Kings in sixteen of the thirty-one games they have played head-to-head, with two games ending in ties. Players like Rohit Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah, and Hardik Pandya are getting closer to reaching important IPL career milestones as the match progresses. Setting the stage for a thrilling match between these two strong teams, individual records and other stats are at risk.

There have only been four IPL games played in Mullanpur, and in those games, two teams have won by fielding first and one team has won by batting first. Both teams in this match, in our opinion, will want to bowl first.

PBKS vs MI: Pre-play Prediction

Best batter: Shikhar Dhawan (PBKS), Rohit Sharma (MI)

Best bowler: Arshdeep Singh (PBKS), Jasprit Bumrah (MI)

Best all-rounder: Sam Curran (PBKS), Hardik Pandya (MI)

Player of the match: Rohit Sharma (MI)

PBKS vs MI: Match Prediction

Before losing to CSK in their most recent game, the Mumbai Indians were on a winning streak; nevertheless, we are picking them to reverse that trend in this match. Without Shikhar Dhawan, Punjab Kings are a weaker team, and we anticipate that his absence will be significant. Mumbai Indians are our pick to win!
