IPL 2025 MI vs PBKS Qualifier 2 Prediction: Will PBKS make it to their second IPL final or MI advance in search of 6th IPL title?
IPL 2025 MI vs PBKS Qualifier 2 Prediction: The Mumbai Indians and Punjab Kings have advanced to the second qualifier as the action shifts to the iconic stadium of Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
Mumbai Indians come from a confident win in the eliminator against Gujarat Titans, as this was the first-ever win for MI against Titans in a knockout game. Mumbai have won by 20 runs at the Mullanpur Stadium, as Rohit Sharma will be eyeing his 6th IPL trophy, though this time Hardik Pandya enters the arena as the skipper.
The Punjab Kings were the opposition of RCB in the first qualifier, as they could not put on even a decent score in the first playoff game. PBKS have a second chance to make it count in the second qualifier, as they might advance into the finals with RCB waiting for them on their end.

IPL 2025 MI vs PBKS Qualifier 2 Prediction: Pitch Report
The Narendra Modi Stadium is well known for its large dimensions; however, it is also one of the greatest batting tracks in the world, which largely favours scoring runs. The Ahmedabad stadium is one of the best batting tracks of modern cricket, as likes of pacers and spinners do not play a role at this venue. Any team winning the toss would opt to bat first on this ground, though chasing can also be a good option, as last time around GT chased an easy 200 at this venue.

The Mumbai Indians, with their vast experience and their bunch of quality players, can be given the upper hand; however, the Punjab Kings have an in-form unit, with their quality players and uncapped players shooting to dominance. Though PBKS are low on experience, they still hold a major chance of winning and entering the finals.
