Punjab Kings v Mumbai Indians – Team News

• Dawid Malan  – Punjab must be tempted to give the world’s number one-ranked T20 batsman a chance in the side now. Either Chris Gayle or Nicholas Pooran could easily make way.
• Nicholas Pooran – Pooran is on a poor run. The West Indian just hasn’t got going with three ducks in his last four innings. He could be running out of opportunities.
• Arshdeep Singh – The young bowler has been one bright spot for the Kings so far. He has found consistency where others haven’t and wickets have followed.
• Rohit Sharma – Th Mumbai skipper has been in good form this IPL and can make more runs at the top of the order against a struggling Punjab bowling unit.
• Suryakumar Yadav – The number three batsman for Mumbai is another that has made a solid if unspectacular start to this year’s tournament. He will be targeting more runs in this fixture.

Mumbai Indians are rightly the favourites to take the win against a struggling Punjab side that looks short of belief.

Back Rohit for Top Mumbai Batsman

Rohit Sharma has made a really solid start to this IPL and looks ready to go on and make a match-winning score.

So far, the Mumbai skipper has fallen short of a half-century in his last three matches.

He looks in good form and it would be no surprise to see him enjoying himself against a deflated Punjab attack.

His price of 3.4 with 22Bet to be Mumbai’s top batsman looks a good wager.

More Joy for Arshdeep

Taking pace off looks the way to go at Chennai and stifling the batsmen looks the best way to bring wickets.

Arshdeep Singh has done really well for Punjab despite the team struggling so far in IPL 2021.

His consistent line and length has given him five wickets so far and he looks the pick of his team’s bowlers.

His price of 4.5 with 22Bet also looks good value when you consider the inconsistency and rotation of his teammates.

Punjab to Have Most Run Outs

The Kings have looked really sluggish between the wickets so far this IPL, so this bet could be worth looking at.

Players have struggled to build partnerships, cutting the time teammates are out in the middle together.

Throw in more likely changes for this and Punjab look vulnerable to runs out when the pressure is on.

Chris Gayle is only getting slower and is another who could come unstuck on a track that often forces a quick single.

The last game at this venue, Punjab’s first this IPL, saw two run outs.

There price of 3.6 with bet365 to get the most again looks worth a bet.
