Background
Punjab Kings are all set to lock horns with Mumbai Indians in match number 46 of IPL 2023 in the second game of the double header on Wednesday (May 3). In the reverese fixture between the two teams, it was Punjab who had emerged victorious. However, a lot seems to have transpired between the two games.
As of now, PBKS have 10 points from 9 matches while MI have 8 points have 8 matches. Both the teams are not too far from each other in the points table with the Shikhar Dhawan-led side sitting at the sixth place closely followed by Rohit Sharma & Co. who find themselves at the seventh place on the table.
In their most recent fixtures, both sides chased down totals in excess off 200 successfully to emerge as the winner. While Punjab did that against Chennai Super Kings (CSK), MI did so against Rajasthan Royals (RR). But that more or less sumps up how closely matches these two sides are. Both have a strong batting order with batters right until the bottom capable of changing the complexion of the game.
Meanwhile, both teams also have a similar vulnerability. Their bowling attack hasn't been as potent which essentially suggests that the team which bowls better at the Punjab Cricket Association, IS Bindra Stadium on Wendesday might just go on to decide the result of the match.
Hrithik Shokeen could be given a chance in MI's playing XI in this game as Punjab have a few left-handers which will be a favourable match up for him. On the other hand, PBKS have the luxury of going in with Harpreet Brar and Sikandar Raza especially with the Impact Player rule coming in.
Possible Starting XIs:
PBKS: Shikhar Dhawan (captain), Prabhsimran Singh, Atharva Taide, Liam Livingstone, Sikandar Raza, Sam Curran, Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Shahrukh Khan, Kagiso Rabada, Rahul Chahar, Arshdeep Singh
MI: Rohit Sharma (captain), Ishan Kishan (wicketkeeper), Cameron Green, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, Tim David, Jofra Archer, Arjun Tendulkar, Piyush Chawla, Kumar Kartikeya, Riley Meredith
