Must-Win Match For PBKS
Punjab Kings were cruising at one point in IPL 2026, but with a four-match losing streak in the business end, have come crashing down and are now desperate for a win.
Currently sitting fourth in the standings with 13 points and three league matches remaining, including today’s fixture, PBKS are now being closely chased by Chennai Super Kings and Rajasthan Royals, both of whom are on 12 points.
Mumbai Indians, on the other hand, have nothing but pride to play for. They had an extremely poor campaign and are already out of the tournament.
