The 17th match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 will see KL Rahul‘s Punjab Kings (PBKS) locking horns with defending champions Mumbai Indians (MI). It will be a battle for momentum between the sides as they look to return to winning ways. While PBKS will be looking to adapt to Chennai’s slowish wickets, MI will be looking to finish their Chennai leg on a high.

The two sides will face each other on April 23 (Friday) at the M. A. Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. All the games of IPL 2021 will be broadcast live on Star Sports 1, Star Sports 1 HD, Star Sports 3 and Star Sports 3 HD TV channels in India. Moreover, it will be live-streamed on the Disney+Hotstar and Jio TV App.

Let’s look at our fantasy 11 predictions for this clash and here are the top picks for PBKS vs RR.

Team Preview – Punjab Kings

The Punjab Kings got off on the wrong foot in their first game at the Chepauk. A timid batting performance saw the Kings suffer a nine wicket defeat at the hands of Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH). The onus will be on the middle order to rise to the occasion as PBKS will be looking to get their campaign on track. The game against MI might see world’s number T20 batsman Dawid Malan making his IPL debut.

A change of venues saw the Aussie duo of Jhye Richardson and Riley Meredith get benched in their maiden IPL season. The inclusion of Moises Henriques and Fabien Allen seemed to work well for KL Rahul and Co. In the game against SRH, the bowling lineup looked solid and it is the only silver lining for a side that has been struggling for consistency off late.

Yet another no-show by Mumbai Indians’ middle order saw them concede their second loss of the season. The likes of Kieron Pollard, Krunal Pandya and Hardik Pandya have struggled in Chennai and their poor run has now become a concern for the defending champs. The trio will have to find a way to succeed on the sluggish pitch as they look for some confidence before moving on to Delhi.

The MI bowling unit on the other has been solid as ever. The inclusion of Jayant Yadav has only bolstered the attack as they continue to roar in Chennai. Following a horrid show in the season opener, Rahul Chahar has been brilliant thus far. The pace duo of Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult too have been in great rhythm. The defending champions are likely to field an unchanged XI.
