As one of the most successful franchises in the IPL, Mumbai Indians have always been known for their consistent performance in the tournament. This season they have a star-studded lineup with a blend of experienced players and young talent.
MI Playing XI vs PBKS: Mumbai Indians Team Analysis
Mumbai Indians’ top-order has been in fine form this season, with their skipper Rohit Sharma leading from the front. Sharma has been well supported by young opener Ishan Kishan, who has given a wonderful start to his team. The 20-year-old Tilak Varma has also shown glimpses of his talent.
However, Mumbai Indians’ middle-order has been a cause of concern for them this season. The experienced SuryaKumar Yadav, who has been a consistent performer for Mumbai Indians in the past, is yet to find his form this season. But in the previous match, Cameron Green broke the slump with a splendid 64 runs off 40 balls. This inning from Green will surely boost the confidence of the Mumbai Indians’ middle-order.
Mumbai Indians’ bowling performance has been satisfactory so far in the tournament. They have a good mix of pace and spin in their attack, with the likes of Jason Behrendroff, Riley Meredith, Piyush Chawla, Hrithik Shokeen, and Arjun Tendulkar.
Mumbai Indians Probable Playing XI Formation
- Rohit Sharma and Ishan Kishan will open the inning.
- Cameron Green will bat at no 3 followed by SuryaKumar Yadav and Tilak Varma.
- The lower order will comprise Tim David, Arjun Tendulkar, and Nehal Wadhera.
- In the bowling unit, the onus will be on Jason Behrendroff, Piyush Chawla, and Hrithik Shokeen.
