IPL Cricket Match Prediction 2024 Match 33 Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians – Can MI beat PBKS in this match to stay in the playoff fight April 18

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Match Analysis

 

In this article, we will discuss the IPL Cricket Match Prediction 2024 of Match 33 Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians – Can MI beat PBKS in this match to stay in the playoff fight on April 18? The Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium will host the match between the Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Mumbai Indians (MI) on Thursday night in the 33rd match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. Both teams have lost four and won two matches thus far in the competition. They enter this matchup having suffered a setback in their previous encounter. This game takes place in Mullanpur on April 18 at 19:30 local time.

 

The Punjab Kings entered this match having experienced just two losses and three close matches in a row! They will once again play without their normal captain, but they have a talented squad, so we should expect them to compete fiercely against the Mumbai Indians.

 

The Mumbai Indians performed well in their most recent game, despite not being quite good enough with the bat and the ball. They have improved since their dismal start to the campaign, and they will go to Mullanpur believing they have a good chance of winning again.

 

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Team Preview & Squads

 

Punjab Kings

 

Even though 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 likely to be sidelined 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.

 

It will all depend on how Punjab Kings’ hitters perform on Thursday night since, fortunately, their bowling attack has been strong.

 

Despite being costly in the most recent Mullanpur encounter, left-arm swing bowler Arshdeep Singh managed to take the crucial wicket of Riyan Parag. In game 27, all-rounder Sam Curran, who has a remarkable record while bowling at the end of the game, got rid of Rovman Powell, and then got Keshav Maharaj in the 19th over.

Mumbai Indians

 

After hitting 105 not out from 63 balls in the previous match against CSK in Match 29, Rohit Sharma must have been wondering what more he needed to achieve. 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 quite effective with the ball in recent matches, 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. Gerald Coetzee and Hardik Pandya are also expected to be dangerous men when the ball is in their hands.

 

As he continues to pursue full fitness, Suryakumar Yadav is probably going to be substituted out of the side for the fielding innings. Since Akash Madhwal was pricey during the fielding innings, he might have trouble getting in for this match.
