Mumbai Indians vs. Punjab Kings Dream11 Predictions: Playing 11 Updates & Fantasy Picks Information

The 33rd IPL 2024 match between the Mumbai Indians and the Punjab Kings will take place at the Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium in Mullanpur. The host side recently suffered a three-wicket defeat at the hands of the Rajasthan Royals, while Mumbai suffered a 20-run loss to the reigning champion Chennai Super Kings.

After six games each, Punjab and Mumbai are separated by only a few decimal places. Punjab’s higher net run rate of -0.21 keeps them one position above Mumbai in the IPL points standings.

Mumbai and Punjab are both coming off defeats in their most recent matches and have each lost four games, thus, pressure to perform will be intense on both teams.

 

The fact that regular skipper Dhawan will be away for “seven to ten days” due to a shoulder injury has made it more difficult for Punjab to get the most out of their top order.

The only silver lining for Punjab in the 2024 Indian Premier League has been the unwavering performances of its unsung heroes, Indians Shashank Singh and Ashutosh Sharma, who both bat lower in the order and have often had to compensate for the deficiencies at the top of the order.

The form of Jitesh Sharma, the Indian wicketkeeper-batter, and Prabhsimran Singh, who has scored 119 runs at 19.83 in six games, is cause for worry. Jitesh, who has only scored 106 runs at 17.66 in six games, will also be under pressure as the World Cup squad selection process approaches.

For their foreign bowling combination of Sam Curran (126 runs and 8 wickets) and Kagiso Rabada (9 wickets), Punjab will need to find additional help. Batters have found it simple to target Arshdeep Singh (9) and Harshal Patel (7), both of India.

Ishan Kishan, Rohit Sharma (captain), Tilak Varma, Shashank Singh, Prabhsimran Singh, Sam Curran (vice captain), Hardik Pandya, Jasprit Bumrah, Kagiso Rabada, Gerald Coetzee, and Arshdeep Singh are the Dream 11 players for the Mumbai Indians vs. Punjab Kings IPL 2024 match.

Indians from Mumbai The predicted starting eleven is Mohammad Nabi, Shreyas Gopal, Gerald Coetzee, Jasprit Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, Tim David, Ishan Kishan, Naman Dhir, Rohit Sharma, and Tilak Varma.

Kings of Punjab Ashutosh Sharma, Liam Livingstone, Harpreet Brar, Vidhwath Kaverappa, Kagiso Rabada, Jonny Bairstow, Prabhsimran Singh, Sam Curran, Jitesh Sharma, Shashank Singh, and Atharva Taide are the predicted players.
