Two teams with the exact same record of just two wins from their six matches meet in Mullanpur as the Punjab Kings play host to the Mumbai Indians. Both the teams have had a mixed bag of results with no consistency so far this season. They are already four points off the playoff positions and will need to string some wins if they are to make the top four. Mumbai will be disappointed with their loss in the last match as they mistimed their run chase despite an unbeaten century from Rohit Sharma.

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Match Prediction: who will win?
Punjab will be desperate for Captain Shikhar Dhawan to find some form as he has only one score of more than 50 this season.They have been fortunate that youngster Shashank Singh is having a brilliant debut season but he needs assistance from players like Dhawan and Jonny Bairstow. Mumbai have the best T20 bowler in world cricket in Jasprit Bumrah but they still conceded over 200 runs in the last match. They will need the support bowlers to be better if they are to challenge for the playoff places. The experience of the Mumbai team will see them to victory in this match.

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai IndiansTop Wicket Taker Prediction
We are backing Jasprit Bumrah to be the top wicket taker in this match.
Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians Betting Preview
The Punjab top order batsmen will need to find a way not to lose early wickets to Bumrah otherwise they will be putting their out of form middle order under immense pressure. If they can survive the Bumrah onslaught then the likes of Bairstow and Sam Curran can play with more freedom. Mumbai on the other hand have had all their top order play a substantial innings but will be looking for more consistency from them. SKY will be the key for Mumbai after his duck in the last match. If he can get a big score, more often than not his team will win due to his incredible strike rate. The visitors have a more balanced line up and should win this match.
