PBKS vs MI Qualifier 2: The PBKS vs MI Qualifier 02 match of the IPL 2025 season has been delayed due to persistent rain on June 01 at Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad.

Both sides are in the verge of claiming victory in the ongoing match to secure the second finals spot of the season. On their previous encounter, PBKS secured a win due to which they claimed to the top two position.

However they lost the qualifier 01 game against RCB while Mumbai secured a comfortable win against Gujarat to advance to qualifiers 02.

Punjab Kings won the toss and opted to bowl first. Speaking at the toss, Shreyas Iyer said,”We are going to bowl first. Slightly overcast and the wicket was under the covers yesterday. Based on these, we are going to bowl first.”

“It’s a fresh day, we’ve recovered pretty well, rejuvenated and our mindset is to go out there and win. Boys are in high spirits, everyone’s thinking positive. The environment in the dressing room is top-notch at the moment, so I can’t complain much. Face comes in,” concluded Iyer.

On the other hand, Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya said, “We also would have bowled first. Looks like a decent track, just need to bat well, assess the conditions early and I think we’ll be okay. It (pitch) has gotten much flatter, the balls have stopped doing as much as it used to do.”

“If you bowl well, fast bowlers tend to get some help. At the same point of time, if you bat well, you can score a lot of runs. There are a lot of areas where we could have got better in the last game,” said Hardik Pandya.

He added, “Playing a tight crucial game, one day break, it’s tough but we are into a rhythm and we know what we need to execute. We came very early morning after the game, we needed some rest, most of the guys focused on recovery and being fresh for today.”

“The intensity will be very important and we’re looking forward to it. We had to make one change. Reece comes in place of Gleeson who has a niggle. Reece Topley comes in,” concluded Pandya.
