PBKS vs MI Match Preview

Despite dominant performances in the league stage, Punjab Kings fumbled in Qualifier 1, folding for just 101. Their bowling has also lacked the edge in the absence of Marco Jansen and Yuzvendra Chahal. But in Ahmedabad, Punjab Kings would want to rectify their mistakes and find a way to score runs as they did against Gujarat Titans in their first game.

MI, under Hardik Pandya, staged a remarkable turnaround after a shaky start, winning eight of their last ten games, including a 20-run Eliminator victory over Gujarat Titans. Rohit Sharma’s 410 runs and Jasprit Bumrah’s 20 wickets have been pivotal, with Suryakumar Yadav and Jonny Bairstow adding firepower.

The Narendra Modi Stadium’s batting-friendly pitch favours both teams’ aggressive approaches, but MI’s playoff experience and Bumrah’s game-changing bowling give them a slight edge. PBKS will rely on Arshdeep Singh and a potentially returning Yuzvendra Chahal to counter MI’s batting depth. With rain a concern, the match’s outcome could hinge on execution under pressure, promising a thrilling showdown.

Pitch Report

The Narendra Modi Stadium pitch is a batting paradise, with nine of 14 innings in IPL 2025 exceeding 200 runs. The red-soil surface offers true bounce and carry, favouring stroke play. Spinners gain traction in the middle overs, while dew may aid chasing teams in the evening. Teams batting first have won six of seven matches, with an average first-innings score of 217-221. Bowlers need variations to succeed.

Ahmedabad Weather Report

On June 1, 2025, Ahmedabad is expected to be warm and humid, with temperatures between 31°C and 36°C and humidity of 48-56%. Forecasts vary, with a 10-51% chance of rain, though clear skies are predicted during match hours by some sources. A two-hour buffer and a reserve day (June 2) are in place for potential rain delays. If the match is washed out, PBKS advance due to their higher league standing.
