Pitch Report

The match between MI and PBKS is set to take place at Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur of Mohali. It is known for its assistance for the bowlers. Batters need to work hard for runs. They need to produce runs from their brilliance. Bowlers need to operate in accurate line and length and let the pitch do the rest. It is a slow surface, and toss might not be a big factor as the wicket does not break down as much.

Player Picks

8.5
C

Ishan Kishan MI | WK

Ishan Kishan has been explosive as a batter in the ongoing season. The star batter has been aggressive at the top and provided a good platform for the middle-order batters. In addition to it, he has been good with the gloves against both spinners and pacers.

9
C

Rohit Sharma MI | BAT

Rohit Sharma smashed his first hundred in the IPL since 2012. The star batter is in the form of his life and would love to make the most of it. He is aggressive at the top and can anchor the innings in the case of a collapse. like he did against CSK.

9
C

Suryakumar Yadav MI | BAT

Suryakumar Yadav smashed an 18-ball hundred against RCB. In the other 2 games against DC and CSK, he registered ducks. While consistency is an issue, the unorthodox batter can come good. It is difficult to keep a batter like him out of action for a long time.

7

Tilak Varma MI | BAT

Tilak Varma can bat well in the middle order. The Southpaw has been the find of MI in the last three seasons. He can be aggressive and anchor the innings too. The youngster can chip in with some overs too, though it is not necessary given the impact player rule.

9

Kagiso Rabada PBKS | BOWL

Kagiso Rabada is a wicket-taker in the IPL. He has the knack of claiming wickets despite going for runs. The South African pacer has good numbers while bowling in Mullanpur. Given the nature of the wicket, he becomes a vital option.

9

Jasprit Bumrah MI | BOWL

Jasprit Bumrah is the best bowler in the world. The star pacer has been one of the best bowlers in the ongoing league giving near to no room for the batters. He is a wicket-taker too. As the match is set to take place in Mullanpur, he can be deadly.

6

Prabhsimran Singh PBKS | WK

Prabsimran Singh is a handy batter after the opening duo. He can add a few runs and be available for wicketkeeping if required. The youngster can also open the innings. The right-handed batter is aggressive in nature and finds gaps well.

8.5

Harpreet Brar PBKS | BOWL

Harpreet Brar is an economical bowler. The left-arm orthodox spinner was good in the first two matches for PBKS. Since then, he has not been as effective. In the game against MI, he could be a defining factor due to a lot of right-handed batters.

8.5

Shreyas Gopal MI | ALL

Shreyas Gopal is a wicket-taking bowler. On his day, the leg spinner can win matches on his own. In the last few years, the Karnataka bowler has not been able to deliver the goods. For MI, he has been good in the two games he has played so far.

Avoid Having These Players In Your Fantasy Sports Team

9

Shikhar Dhawan

PBKS | BAT

Shikhar Dhawan has been out of form in the last few games. His place in the side is in danger. While he can score runs, it is difficult to trust him at this point as Mullanpur's wicket is not that easy to bat on. Dhawan is out of confidence and bats slow.

8.5

Harshal Patel

PBKS | BOWL

Harshal Patel can take wickets. But he concedes a lot of runs. In almost every match, he has an economy of over 10. It is very risky to have him in the side given the caliber of the MI batters. In the death overs, he looks a bit clueless.

8

Romario Shepherd

MI | ALL

Romario Shepherd is a good player. However, the chances of him getting an opportunity to bat are less, as he bats mostly at number 8. Even with the ball, he is more of a filler and is not a wicket-taker. Hence, it is better to avoid him.
