Toss Prediction

Holkar Cricket Stadium has hosted only three IPL matches till date and all of them have been won by the side that has batted second. So this makes winning the toss all the more important here and whoever wins it on Thursday is more likely to have a bowl first. KXIP have won all their three matches at this ground while chasing which is why we suggest betting on them if they bat second in this game.

PBKS Team News & Playing 11

Team News

None of their players were reported to be injured at the time of writing. No changes are expected in KXIP's lineup for this upcoming clash with the Mumbai Indians.

Key Players

The opening pair of Hashim Amla and Manan Vohra will be the key among a solid-looking batting lineup. Both have struck a fifty each in this IPL and the latter played a majestic knock of 95 runs off 50 balls to nearly take KXIP home in the last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Axar Patel took two big wickets in that match and he has been the pick of the lot with six wickets from five matches. The left-arm spinner is going to be the main weapon in their bowling attack.

Recent Form

Kings XI Punjab made a good start to their IPL campaign with wins in their first two matches but they now seem to be losing their way with three consecutive defeats. Their 5-run loss at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad has pushed them down to the fifth spot on the points table.

KXIP Predicted Playing 11

  • HM Amla, M Vohra, GJ Maxwell (c), EJG Morgan, DA Miller, WP Saha (wk), AR Patel, MM Sharma, KC Cariappa, I Sharma, Sandeep Sharma.

MI Team News & Playing 11

Team News

Mumbai Indians will go into this game with a clean bill of health as all their players are in good physical condition. The team is unlikely to tweak the combination that won them their last game against Gujarat Lions.

Key Players

Nitish Rana has scored the most runs for Mumbai Indians so far in this Indian Premier League. The top-order batsman scored his second fifty of the season in the last game and the team will want him to continue his good form. Kieron Pollard now has two good hits in two games and he is their best man in the middle order. Fast bowler Mitchell McClenaghan is currently Mumbai's leading wicket taker with 7 wickets and he will play an important role with the ball along with Jasprit Bumrah who will be crucial at the death.

Recent Form

Mumbai Indians find themselves comfortably placed on the second spot of the IPL leaderboard after winning four matches on the trot. They seem to have changed gears after their opening defeat against Rising Pune Supergiant and are now looking unstoppable with their key players clicking at the right time.

MI Predicted Playing 11

  • PA Patel (wk), JC Buttler, N Rana, RG Sharma (c), KA Pollard, HH Pandya, KH Pandya, Harbhajan Singh, MJ McClenaghan, SL Malinga, JJ Bumrah.

­KXIP vs MI Head to Head

Mumbai Indians and Kings XI Punjab have won 9 matches each out of the 18 that have been played between the two sides in the Indian Premier League. Their most recent encounter came last season at Visakhapatnam where KXIP registered a comfortable 7-wicket victory. This is the first time that these two teams will be facing each other at Indore.

­KXIP vs MI Betting Odds

Mumbai Indians have won their last four games in a row and are once again showing what they are known for - consistency. It has not been just about their batting or bowling; they have put up an allround performance and so bookmakers are showing a lot of faith in them. MI are favorites to win at 1.74 with Betfair and 1.72 with Bet365. Kings XI Punjab on the other hand are coming with defeats in their last three games and even though they have a pristine record at this ground, they find themselves as outsiders at 2.2 with 1xbet and 2.10 with bet365.

­KXIP vs MI Prediction

Kings XI Punjab will fancy their chances at a venue where they have not faced a defeat before. They have played three matches at the Holkar Cricket Stadium and have easy wins in all three of them. Pressure, however, is going to be on them as they will be looking to put an end to their three-match losing streak, and that too, against a team that is coming off the back of four successive wins.

Unlike KXIP who mainly rely on their batsmen to win them games, MI seem to have a perfect balance between batting and bowling. The Rohit Sharma-led side has some good allrounders in Pollard, Hardik and Krunal Pandya which is one of the reasons why we predict them to extend their winning streak to five this Thursday.

Final Verdict: Back Mumbai Indians to beat Kings XI Punjab in the 22nd match of IPL 2017 at 1.74 with 1xbet and 1.72 with bet365.
