Azmatullah Omarzai Replaced by Kyle Jamieson for PBKS vs MI Match 69 of IPL 2025

PBKS and MI must win this match to have a chance to go to the IPL 2025 final, as well as to secure their spots in the top two standings. At the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur, PBKS captain Shreyas Iyer did not explain the roster change, but it may have been influenced by the Afghan international's subpar performance a few days prior.

On Monday, May 26, Punjab Kings (PBKS) and Mumbai Indians (MI) square off in a pivotal Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 match at Jaipur's Sawai Mansingh Stadium. The victor of this match will guarantee a spot in the top two. PBKS enters this match fresh off a six-wicket loss to the Delhi Capitals. In the meantime, the Mumbai Indians advanced to the playoffs by defeating the same opponents by 59 runs in their most recent meeting.

Azmatullah Omarzai gets replaced:

After winning the toss, Shreyas Iyer chose to field first. He clarified how the location will work for both sides and stated that he believes in deeds rather than words. Hardik Pandya, meanwhile, stated that it was a good toss to lose because he was unsure of what he would do if he had won. As his side prepares to play in another crucial match, the star all-rounder said the last eight-nine games have been like knockouts for them.

Kyle Jamieson, who replaced him due to an injury in the middle of the season, has made his debut. He will take the place of Azmatullah Omarzai, who performed poorly in the previous game with the bat and the ball. Praveen Dubey has been moved to the Impact substitutes' list, and Vijaykumar Vyshak is also in the starting eleven for the Punjab-based team. At the toss, Hardik announced that Ashwani Kumar, a young left-arm seamer, would be rejoining the Mumbai Indians. He is anticipated to be used in the second inning after being added to the Impact Substitute list.
