MI vs PBKS: Watch- Arjun Tendulkar Cleans Up Prabhsimran Singh With A Sensational Yorker

Mumbai Indians (MI) won the toss & opted to bowl first against Punjab Kings (PBKS). Shikhar Dhawan wasn’t a part of PBKS’ setup as he is yet to recover from the injury. Prabhsimran Singh along with Atharva Taide was quite aggressive in the power-play overs as PBKS scored 58 runs in power-play overs for the loss of 1 wicket. Prabhsimran Singh smashed 2 sixes to Jason Behrendorff in the 4th over and was in scintillating form.

MI fans would be delighted to see the right-arm speedster Jofra Archer back into the mix after missing the last 4 matches due to an elbow injury. Jofra Archer though didn’t have a great start as he gave away 10 runs in his first over.

PBKS would be hoping that one of Prabhsimran Singh or Atharva Taide makes the most of the start as there are chances that the track would assist the spinners. It would be interesting to see how Piyush Chawla fares after getting whacked for 12 runs in his 1st over.

Arjun Tendulkar before that delivery had conceded 7 runs in 3 balls as his variations weren’t proving to be effective. The partnership between Prabhsimran Singh & Atharva Taide was looking threatening. PBKS’ score at the 6.4 overs was 65-2.

Great chance for MI

PBKS don’t have a stable middle order as the onus would be on Atharva Taide to guide the batters in the middle overs. The destructive batter Liam Livingstone would be tested against the veteran wrist spinner Piyush Chawla.

PBKS should promote the likes of Jitesh Sharma & Shahrukh Khan up the order who can negate the threat of spin rather than backing skipper Sam Curran. The pitch looks like a belter as any target less than 170 won’t be competitive.
