PBKS vs MI IPL 2026: Preview, Timing, Squads & Live Streaming

Punjab began their campaign in dominant fashion, winning six of their opening seven matches and emerging as one of the strongest sides in the tournament. However, their momentum has faded in recent weeks, with Shreyas Iyer's men suffering four consecutive defeats. As the playoff battle heats up, PBKS will be desperate to halt the slide and strengthen their chances of securing a top-four finish.

PBKS are currently placed at fourth position in the points table with 13 points in 11 matches.

On the other side, the Mumbai Indians were knocked out of the competition following their eighth defeat of the season against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru in Raipur on May 10. Despite boasting a star-studded lineup and showing early promise, they failed to convert their on-paper strength into consistent performances throughout the campaign. Their season has been marked by inconsistency, leaving them ninth on the points table with just six points from 11 matches.

Both sides previously met each other at Wankhede Stadium on April 16, where Cooper Connolly and Shreyas Iyer played brilliant knocks to chase the 196-run target with 21 balls to spare.

The rivalry between the Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians has been closely contested over the years. Out of the 35 matches played between the two teams in the IPL, Punjab Kings hold a slight edge with 18 wins, while Mumbai Indians have emerged victorious on 17 occasions.
