Mumbai Indians (MI) will be looking to spark a turnaround and bag their first win of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season when they lock horns with Punjab Kings (PBKS) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Wednesday. Mumbai Indians are the only team who are winless in the season so far with four defeats in their first four matches.
While skipper Rohit Sharma is yet to his purple patch, the likes of Kieron Pollard, Tim David and Dewald Brevis have also failed to get going this season. However, the trio of Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav and Tilak Varma has displayed great form so far this season which is the only positive for the five-time champions.
Their bowling attack has also lacked sting as Jasprit Bumrah has not managed to find support from the other end. The lack of a wicket-taking spinner and an overseas pacer who can partner Bumrah with the new ball and in the death overs has hurt MI's chances this season.
Punjab Kings have had a contrasting start compared to MI as the Mayank Agarwal-led side has managed two wins and two losses in their first four games of the season. Punjab Kings have shown intent with the bat and have played an aggressive brand of cricket.
With the likes of Liam Livingstone, Jonny Bairstow and Shahrukh Khan in a rich vein of form, Punjab Kings will be licking their lips against MI's struggling bowling attack. However, their death bowling has been a huge concern as the pacers have struggled to control runs towards the end. The lack of wickets for the likes of Kagiso Rabada and Harpreet Brar is also a worrying sign for Punjab.
