IPL 2024: Predicting Mumbai Indians’ Playing XI for their clash against Punjab Kings

The Hardik Pandya-led Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to lock horns against the Punjab Kings (PBKS) in the 33rd game of the IPL 2024, which is slated to take place at Mullanpur’s Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium on April 18. Notably, both teams have played six matches and have just two wins and four losses in the tournament so far.

However, the five-time IPL champions will be hoping to win their next clash to turn things around. In the same vein, here is the probable playing XI of the MI camp.

Openers: Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan

Former MI skipper Rohit Sharma is set to open the innings along with Ishan Kishan in the next game. Notably, Rohit Sharma was in magnificent form in the last clash against CSK and went on to hammer a stunning hundred. However, he is once again expected to smash a plethora of runs alongside Ishan Kishan in the next clash.

Batters: Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, and Tim David

Notably, Suryakumar Yadav is the main batter from the MI camp and is expected to do most of the damage against the PBKS bowlers. The stylish right-handed batter has the ability to play shots and attack the bowlers really well. However, Tilak Varma and Tim David also seemed to be in great touch and have the ability to boost the middle order of Mumbai Indians.

All-rounders: Hardik Pandya and Romario Shepherd

Hardik Pandya and Romario Shepherd are the power hitters of the MI camp who have the ability to boost the lower order of the camp as well as scalp wickets in the middle order. Notably, Shepherd seems to be in sublime form and has the ability to play match-winning shots, which makes him a very exceptional player.

Bowlers: Mohammad Nabi, Jasprit Bumrah, Gerald Coetzee, and Akash Madhwal 

Jasprit Bumrah is leading the pace attack of the Mumbai Indians camp in the IPL 2024, and he will be the prime fast bowler to look for wickets against the Punjab Kings. However, Mohammad Nabi, Gerald Coetzee, and Akash Madhwal also hold equal responsibility for dismantling the Punjab Kings batting line-up in the IPL 2024.
