Indian Premier League: Having succumbed to three successive defeats following the victory in their season-opener, five-time champions Mumbai Indians enter their fifth match of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2026 for a needle clash with their old bugbear, Punjab Kings, the only franchise that has a positive record against them.

MI are desperate for a win and will be going into Thursday's clash at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, hoping to put their campaign back on track by capitalising on their stellar record at home.
