Mumbai vs Punjab Chance of Winning
Mumbai are on a roll after losing their high-scoring first match against Karnataka. After defeating Hyderabad by three wickets in the second match, they thrashed Arunachal Pradesh by nine wickets in the third match. They are currently placed second in the eight-team Group C points table. They bundled out Arunachal Pradesh for 73 before chasing down the target in 5.3 overs only.
Punjab, on the other hand, are third in the Group C table. They defeated Arunachal Pradesh by nine wickets, Nagaland by five wickets and were on course for their third consecutive win before a hundred from Mayank Agarwal helped Karnataka register a thrilling one-wicket win.
Punjab's batting has emerged as a concern in the last two matches. Nagaland had them five down for 175 when they were chasing 217. Karnataka bundled them out for 247 in the third match. Anmolpreet Singh has emerged as the only consistent batter for Punjab. The strike bowlers of Punjab have also failed to impress. On the flip side, Mumbai bowlers have mend their ways after failing to defend 383 against Karnataka, and the batting unit looks one of the best in the tournament. Therefore, Mumbai will have a good chance of beating Punjab to strengthen their position for a quarter-finals berth.
Mumbai chance of winning - 68%
Punjab chance of winning - 32%

Mumbai vs Punjab Betting Tips
Mumbai opener Angkrish Raghuvanshi scored a flamboyant fifty as his team chased down the 74-run target in just 33 balls against Arunachal Pradesh. The 20-year-old scored unbeaten 50 runs off 18 balls, and his innings consisted of nine fours and a six. He scored 19 against Hyderabad and just six against Karnataka. Quite visibly he has improved with every passing innings, and will look to make a further impression against Punjab.
Punjab captain Abhishek Sharma picked four wickets in the hard-fought match against Karnataka. He dismissed three of the top-five batters and his bowling efforts put Punjab on the cusp of a thrilling win despite just posting 247 runs on the board. However, he is yet to hit a fifty in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25. Nonetheless, the all-rounder could play a key role in Punjab's crucial match against Mumbai. He would be looking to lead from the front in both the batting and bowling departments.

Mumbai vs Punjab Top Batters
Shreyas Iyer to be the top batter for Mumbai
Mumbai captain Shreyas Iyer did not play against Arunachal Pradesh. Regardless, he would not have got a chance to bat as his team registered a thumping nine-wicket win. He would now be raring to go against each Punjab. To give an opportunity to his teammates, the 30-year-old came out to bat at nine against Hyderabad. Mumbai were seven down for 105 while chasing 170 when the star batter took the onus on his to score unbeaten 44 off 20, and take Mumbai over the line. He scored unbeaten 114 runs off just 55 balls against Karnataka. The in-form batter has played 146 List A matches and scored 5742 runs at an average of 47.45.
Anmolpreet Singh to be the top batter for Punjab
Anmolpreet Singh brought up his third-consecutive fifty-plus score in the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 on Thursday. After his record-breaking 35-ball hundred against Arunachal Pradesh, the 26-year-old right-hander scored 55 off 40 with the help of 12 fours against Nagaland. In his third outing against Karnataka, Anmolpreet scored 51 off 60, the highest from any batter in his team. The Punjab batter has played a total of 52 List A matches and scored 1713 runs at an average of 40.78.
Mumbai vs Punjab Top Bowlers
Shardul Thakur to be the top bowler for Mumbai
Under-pressure Shardul Thakur picked two wickets in three overs against Arunachal. The out-of-favour India international gave away just eight runs in the match. Players like Shardul sometimes need a slight bit of confidence boost to start performing again, and his outing against Arunachal Pradesh could have just done that. He went wicketless after leaking 72 runs in six overs. He picked himself up in the second match, giving away just 23 in seven overs for one wicket. A good outing against a team like Punjab will further help him get his mojo back. He has picked 173 wickets in 114 List A matches.
Arshdeep Singh to be the top bowler for Punjab
Eyes will be on Arshdeep Singh in Punjab's fourth match of the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2024-25 on Saturday. India's white-ball has failed to impress so far in the tournament. After not playing against Arunachal Pradesh, he bowled 10 overs for 67 runs and one wicket against Nagaland. The wicket he picked came in the 44th over. In the following match against Karnataka, the left-arm pacer picked two wickets for 48 runs in 10 overs. However, those wickets again came after the 35th over, and one of them was of a tail-ender. A bowler of Arshdeep quality would himself want to lead from the front, and the big match against Mumbai can bring the best out of him. Overall, he has picked 36 wickets in 26 List A matches at an average of 29.27.
