Punjab Kings had stuttered at the start of the season. After a bright start to the tournament against Delhi capitals, Punjab Kings have lost four of the last five games. They have lost the last two games at home which makes this a tricky fixture for PBKS. In the last game, RR beat PBKS with three wickets to spare.

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Jonny Bairstow has once again struggled in the tournament thus far. There have been instances where, Bairstow has got off to decent starts but has thrown his wicket away with a reckless shot. In six matches thus far, he has scored 96 runs with an average of 16 runs which makes us believe Bairstow would struggle to score well once again.
If we compare the two teams, even with the return of Liam Livingstone in the starting lineup for PBKS, Mumbai Indians have far more firepower which could end up being a deciding factor in this game. MI have hit 67 sixes thus far on the other hand PBKS has bagged 44 sixes which makes us believe, MI would hit more sixes in the upcoming game.

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Betting Odds
Mumbai Indians to have a better opening partnership than Punjab Kings
Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings head into this fixture after what has been a disappointing start to the tournament. Both sides have two wins in six games and are desperate to get things back on track. Punjab Kings have struggled in the powerplay as they tend to lose early wickets in most of the games thus far. The absence of Shikhar Dhawan and struggles of Jonny Bairstow has had a detrimental impact for PBKS which is probably why they have conceded a bigger opening partnership in each of the last two games. On the other hand, in the last three games MI have managed an opening partnership of 80, 101 and 70 and have had a better opening partnership in three of the last four games which makes us believe Mumbai Indians would have a better opening stand in the upcoming game.

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Kings Top Batters
Shikhar Dhawan to be Punjab Kings’ top batter
Punjab Kings have struggled in the batting department which has been the main reason for their struggle this season. With the absence of Shikhar Dhawan, the onus would be on Sam Curran to lead the team. Curran has scored 63, 29 and 6 in the last three home games which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Rohit Sharma to be Mumbai Indians’ top batter
With all the chaos surrounding Mumbai Indians this season, Rohit Sharma has had a phenomenal campaign thus far. With 261 runs, Sharma is the leading run scorer for Mumbai Indians thus far and in the last game against CSK, he scored a magnificent century which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Top Team Bowlers
Arshdeep Singh to be Punjab Kings’ top bowler
Even though Arshdeep Singh did not have a great game in the last outing, we are still going to back him once again. With nine wickets thus far, he is the leading wicket taker for PBKS and in the three games at home, Arshdeep has bagged seven wickets which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Jasprit Bumrah to be Mumbai Indians’ top bowler
Once again we are going to stick with Jasprit Bumrah in this game even though he did not have a great game against CSK. Bumrah was brilliant in both wins for Mumbai Indians and with 10 wickets, he is the leading wicket taker for MI which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
