Team Analysis: 

Punjab Kings (PBKS)

Sitting pretty at the top of the table after the end of the league stage matches, PBKS went to play the Qualifier 1 game against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) with full confidence. However, it was a horrible batting disaster from PBKS as they were bundled out for just 101 runs, and RCB comfortably chased the target with eight wickets remaining. 

Mumbai Indians (MI)

Five-time IPL winners Mumbai Indians made it to the playoffs after a slow start to the season, winning just one game out of five. Hardik Pandya and his side clashed against the Gujarat Titans (GT) in the Eliminator game on May 30. Batting first, MI scored 228 runs, however, GT displayed a great batting performance as they scored 208 runs while batting second. At one point, it looked like GT could chase the target, but thanks to MI bowlers' brilliance in the death over, who held their nerves in the end.
