Captain Rohit Sharma top scored with a 28-ball 43 in the defeat to RCB on Sunday. He is our tip for Mumbai Indians’ highest run scorer against Punjab Kings. With the ball, Jasprit Bumrah has taken 3 wickets in each of his last two matches. He is our recommendation for Mumbai Indians’ top wicket taker.
KL Rahul has hit 52 boundaries in his 401 runs in the competition and is a strong choice for Punjab Kings’ leading run scorer in this game. Ravi Bishnoi took 3-24 on Saturday, his best figures of the tournament. The leg-spinner is well worth backing as the top wicket taker for Punjab.
After taking 8 wickets in only three matches in the UAE, Jasprit Bumrah looks back to his best. He is our prediction for taking the Player of The Match Award.

MI vs PBKS T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2021
Match 42 of the 2021 Indian Premier League sees Mumbai Indians take on Punjab Kings at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi on Tuesday evening. Mumbai Indians, who are aiming for their third successive IPL title, are 7th but level on points with KKR in 4th. Punjab Kings sit in between the pair in 5th with the same points. Read on as we preview this game. The match begins at 18:00 local time.
Mumbai Indians have slipped to next to bottom of the table, unfamiliar territory for the IPL winners from three of the last four years. However, with Jasprit Bumrah in top form, they remain a threat to any side.
Punjab Kings have stuttered throughout the 2021 IPL but are well placed for a tilt at the top four places. It was a real team batting performance which got them over the line in the last match.

Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Mumbai Indians vs Punjab Kings, IPL 2021.
The all-conquering Mumbai Indians are in unfamiliar territory in the table after losing three successive games. Although form is a concern, they are level on points with KKR in 4th and their opening bowlers and batsmen are performing to a high level.
MI Key Players
Rohit Sharma - The captain and opening batsman has hit 326 runs in the 2021 IPL, the most of any players in the Mumbai Indians side.
Jasprit Bumrah - The international bowler did not take many wickets in the earlier stages of the tournament but is now bowling at his best in the UAE.
Trent Boult - The New Zealand left-arm opening bowler conceded only 17 runs from 4 overs in the defeat to RCB. He has 11 wickets in the tournament so far.
MI Team Form
Mumbai Indians have lost all three of their matches in the UAE and have slipped down the table at an alarming rate.
KL Rahul (11) will be our wicket-keeper. He has been one of the most consistent batsmen during the 2021 IPL.
Batsmen
Rohit Sharma (10), Mayank Agarawal (9.5) and Suryakumar Yadav (9) are our batsmen. Sharma hit 43 of the 111 Mumbai Indians’ total in their last game.
All-rounders
Deepak Hooda (8.5) will be our all-rounder. He hit a very useful 10-ball 13 in a low scoring game on Saturday.
Bowlers
Trent Boult (9), Jasprit Bumrah (9), Adam Milne (8.5), Rahul Chahar (8.5), Ravi Bishnoi (8.5) and Nathan Ellis (8) will be our bowlers. Bumrah and Boult are both now firing with the ball.
Captain/Vice-captain
Jasprit Bumrah will be captain, Rohit Sharma his deputy

MI vs PBKS Match Prediction
PBKS Team News & Playing 11
PBKS Team News
KL Rahul’s side made two changes before their narrow win over Sunrisers Hyderabad with Nathan Ellis and Chris Gayle coming in for Ishan Porel and Fabian Allen. They will need to raise their game against Mumbai Indians if they are to win this crucial fixture.
PBKS Key Players
KL Rahul - The captain has been a very consistent big run scorer at the top of the Punjab Kings’ order and very rarely throws his wicket away.
Mayank Agarwal - With 332 runs to his name in the tournament, Agarwal is second only to captain KL Rahul in the Punjab Kings runs list.
Mohammed Shami - The Indian bowler has taken 5 wickets in the last two games and currently has 13 wickets across the 2021 IPL.
PBKS Team Form
A win over Sunrisers Hyderabad has got Punjab Kings back on track but they are certainly not in particularly good form.
PBKS Predicted Playing 11
KL Rahul (c) (wk), Mayank Agarwal, Chris Gayle, Aiden Markram, Nicholas Pooran, Deepak Hooda, Adil Rashid, Harpreet Brar, Mohammed Shami, Arshdeep Singh, Nathan Ellis

Who will win MI vs PBKS IPL T20 Match?
Both teams have struggled for consistency with the bat. KL Rahul (401), Mayank Agarwal (332) and Rohit Sharma (326) are the only players on show to have passed 300 runs.
We expect the top batsmen for Mumbai Indians to be Rohit Sharma, Quinton de Kock and Suryakumar Yadav. The openers put on a partnership of 57 before the team collapsed to 111 all out.
We recommend KL Rahul, Mayank Agarwal and Aiden Markram with the bat for Punjab Kings. KL Rahul has been the standout batsman for the side across the tournament.
This is a crucial game for both teams. A win and they will be knocking on the door of the play-offs; defeat and they will have Sunrisers Hyderabad for company at the bottom of the table. After three successive defeats we are predicting a win for the Mumbai Indians.
