Sunday will, indeed, see the Indian Premier League’s grand confrontation between PBKS and MI. Having had a terrible defeat against Royal Challengers Bangalore in Qualifier 1, Shreyas Iyer’s team needs to win against Hardik Pandya’s team. The game will kick off at 7:30 PM IST at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
PBKS had quite a season, finishing starkly atop the table but got outplayed by RCB in the Qualifiers, setting their second-lowest total in the IPL of 101 runs in just 15 overs. Marcus Stoinis with 26 was the highest scorer while Prabhsimran Singh and Azmatullah Omarzai also chipped in with 18 each. RCB batted really well while chasing the target, sealing it in under 10 overs with Phil Salt scoring seventy-six not out.

The Mumbai Indians, however, come into this said contest very much buoyed by a victory that meant well against the Gujarat Titans in the Eliminator. Rohit Sharma served the team with an outstanding 81 from 50 balls, helping MI to 228 for 5, and Jasprit Bumrah also stood tall with the ball, taking one for 27 to restrict the Titans to 208 for 6 against valiant performances from Sai Sudharsan and Washington Sundar.
Pitch Report for MI vs PBKS match.
The pitch at Ahmedabad might not be favoring the batters as much as it did earlier in the season. The average first innings score here would be around 173. There could be some movement for the fast bowlers initially, while spinners should find some grip in the later stages of the contest. Winning the toss will matter for sure, considering dew comes into play by then.
