This game is significant for both the sides: PBKS with 17 points from eight wins, four losses, and one no result and positioned second; and MI in the fourth position with 16 points from eight wins and five losses. Both teams want to finish higher up the table and grab a shot to the IPL final.
Having scored 284 runs this season, Shashank holds an average of 56.80 and a strike rate of 149.47 with two fifties and a best of 59*. He has been exceptional during the death overs, with a strike rate of 195 against pace and 203 against spin. With PBKS already in the playoffs, he’s in a fabulous position to enhance his show of last year where he scored 354 runs in 14 innings averaging 44.25, striking at 164.25.

They also top the charts in bowling average, strike rate, and lowest boundary percentage in this phase, with only KKR managing a better economy rate-should be a great tussle!
