PBKS vs MI Dream11: Lineups, pitch report and score predictions for IPL 2026 match

PBKS still remain in the hunt for a playoff spot. They had beaten MI by seven wickets in their first meeting earlier this season. IPL 2026 HUB: Latest IPL News | IPL Points Table | Team Stats | IPL 2026 Squads PBKS vs MI IPL 2026 at Dharamshala: Match Preview Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians meet again in IPL 2026, this time at the scenic Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium in Dharamsala on May 14.

PBKS are fourth on the points table with six victories from eleven outings, but momentum has deserted them. Four back-to-back losses have knocked the confidence out of a team that looked unstoppable earlier in the season. A win here is essential if they want to keep their playoff push on track without depending on other results going their way.

Meanwhile, MI, sitting ninth with only three wins from eleven games, were formally knocked out of playoff contention following their narrow last-ball defeat to Royal Challengers Bengaluru. The five-time champions now have nothing left to play for except the chance to restore some dignity in the closing weeks of a season that has gone badly wrong.
