Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Mumbai Indians (MI) are set to face off in Match No. 69 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) on Monday evening. Both teams have already secured a spot in the playoffs, but there is still a lot at stake in this match. The winner could potentially finish in the top two at the end of the league stage.

For those unfamiliar with the format: teams finishing in the top two of the IPL standings get two chances to qualify for the final—first through Qualifier 1, and then, if needed, Qualifier 2.

This is, therefore, a crucial game for both Mumbai and Punjab, but only one team can walk away with the maximum points—unless rain plays spoilsport. The match will be played at the Sawai Mansingh Cricket Stadium in Jaipur on Monday evening.

IPL 2025 PBKS vs MI Pitch Report

The pitch at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium is known to be a balanced surface, offering assistance to both batters and bowlers. While the pitch can favor bowlers, especially in the early overs, it tends to flatten out as the game progresses, allowing batters to score freely.

Chasing teams have historically had a higher success rate at this venue. Therefore, the team winning the toss may opt to bowl first to take advantage of any dew and assess the target under lights.
