MI vs PBKS IPL 2026 Live Streaming: Former champions Mumbai Indians have lost three consecutive matches after beginning their campaign on a high and will lock horns with Punjab Kings during their next match in Mumbai on Thursday. The Punjab-based franchise is the only unbeaten team so far, although they shared one point with Kolkata Knight Riders after the match was abandoned due to incessant rain.
Shreyas Iyer will be seen in action at his own home ground at the Wankhede Stadium, just like he represents Mumbai's first-class team, and will try to defeat the Hardik Pandya-led side yet again. Punjab Kings defeated Mumbai Indians in the IPL 2025 Qualifier 2 and qualified for the summit clash, where they lost to Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 9 runs.
Their batters have been in sublime form, chasing targets of 200 runs quite easily this year, but their bowling lineup has been inconsistent, as they haven't been able to restrict their opponents till now. The Mumbai-based franchise is also struggling with this issue, as its star pace bowler Jasprit Bumrah hasn't taken a wicket yet. He will be playing against his ex-team. As for the head-to-head record between the two teams, both have won 17 matches and lost as many, but the Shreyas Iyer-led side beat MI twice last season. We are in a very positive frame of mind, and we have a clear idea of their plan of action. Having done well against their plans in the past is an added advantage that we want to carry into this game as well,” Wadhera told reporters during the pre-match press conference.

He also heaped praises on captain Shreyas Iyer for helping them qualify for the final last year and said, "I was talking to Shreyas recently, and he told me, ‘You play freely, taking pressure is my job.’ It tells you a lot about him as a leader—he enjoys that responsibility. Seeing him finish games and stay not out in our recent wins has been fabulous for the entire group.”
