IPL 2025: PBKS Playing XI Against MI | Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians ( Qualifier 2 )

After playing consistent cricket throughout the season but disappointing in the first qualifier, Punjab Kings will have their last chance to reach the finals after almost a decade. In the last match against Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the team showed disappointing batting, collapsing to just 101 runs in 14 overs and losing the match by eight wickets. However, since the team finished the group stage in the top 2, they will have two chances to reach the finals. The team will play the second qualifier against the Mumbai Indians. This article will discuss their expected lineup for the upcoming match.
Punjab's bowling attack will have two overseas fast bowlers, Azmatullah Omarzai and Kyle Jamieson, in the pace department, as well as the star Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh. In the spin department, the team is likely to have Yuzvendra Chahal, whose injury is expected to heal by the match and Harpreet Brar, who will bowl some crucial middle overs.

Punjab Kings Predicted Playing XI Against Mumbai Indians

Top Order

In the top order, Punjab Kings will have two young Indian openers: Prabhsimran Singh and Priyansh Arya, who will open the innings for the team. Both batters have performed well for the team. Meanwhile, in the third position, Shreyas Iyer will play. Shreyas has performed extremely well for the team this season and is currently the team's highest run scorer.

Middle Order

Nehal Wadheera has performed well for the team this season; after some mediocre performances in the first half, Stoinis has started to look good again. Though Punjab collapsed in the last match, getting all out for just 101 runs, Stoinis tried to perform and was the highest run-scorer for the team. The team will also include Shasank Singh, Azmatullah Omarzai, and Marco Jenson in the lower middle order.

Bowlers

Punjab's bowling attack will have two overseas fast bowlers, Azmatullah Omarzai and Kyle Jamieson, in the pace department, as well as the star Indian pacer Arshdeep Singh.
