MI enter this match with momentum, having secured a 20-run victory over Gujarat Titans in the Eliminator. Key performances included Rohit Sharma's 81 off 50 balls and Jasprit Bumrah's economical bowling. Ahead of the Qualifier 2, they have a full squad available and Hardik Pandya may preserve the winning combination.
PBKS have showcased resilience throughout the season, with captain Shreyas Iyer leading his troops brilliantly so far. Although Punjab lost the Qualifier 1, they do have ample quality in the side. PBKS do have their full squad available except Yuzvendra Chahal, whose condition is not yet confirmed. The leg-spinner was seen bowling in the nets but his fitness status needs to be seen.
While both teams have displayed commendable performances, Mumbai Indians' experience in high-pressure matches gives them a slight advantage. Their recent form, combined with a balanced squad, positions them as favourites to clinch a spot in the final. However, Punjab Kings' determination and key players' form cannot be underestimated, promising a competitive encounter. Shreyas Iyer and his boys have showcased their mettle, and will be desperate to do the same and book a place in the final.
