PBKS vs MI, IPL 2024 Dream11 prediction: Best fantasy picks for Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians match

Who would have thought that after 32 matches, Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians would be sailing in the same boat? Such has been the Mumbai Indians' performance in the IPL 2024, which can be alluded to many reasons, apart from cricket. But they have an opportunity to come back on Thursday.

Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians are sort of in a critical position in the 2024 edition of the IPL and this clash and the result on Thursday could have a bearing on how the rest of their campaign goes for them. With the team they have, Mumbai Indians will be disappointed with the position they are on the points table with just two wins and four losses. However, they still have games and the pedigree to make it to the top four and even challenge for the title but they have to get a few things right, more than just cricket. 

The outside noise hasn't helped in MI's case and it must be affecting the skipper Hardik Pandya somewhat. But can he and the Mumbai Indians turn it around, the destiny is still well in their hands. MI wouldn't have asked for a better game to start over, given they will be up against a team that has had its own set of issues. The top-order is not working, the players are out of form, the regular skipper is injured. One thing they have gotten consistently right is their middle-order batting.

But that hasn't been enough for them to force results in their favour. The bowling has done well in parts and struggled in others and the Men in Red would want to have a complete game before their home stretch in Mullanpur ends.
