Varun Aaron on the surface of Ahmedabad
Varun Aaron believes that the Ahmedabad playing field will adapt to the Punjab blender more than the Mumbai mixer because the PBKs trust their openers more compared to MI. Punjab’s lead coach Ricky Ponting will help his young baptisms to settle in the high-pressure game.
“I think the surface of Ahmedabad, first, will adapt to Punjab. It will adapt to the two teams, but Punjab more as such, because they trust the two operators, I think it is good to be described in the first two places. They have had a game. At least their young Indian contingent have seen a type of game of great pressure and a game,” he said to Espncricinfo.

Tom Moody’s comment on Punjab Kings
According to Tom Moody, the key to the kings of Punjab at the qualifier 2 is the speed that they forget the last loss and bounce. The area of grade battles 2 will give full confidence and faith to the PBKs camp.
“He continues to surround them full of trust and faith. And if they do it on a good battle surface, there is no doubt that they will be competitive. But let’s leave it well, Mumbai will arrive in red after a good performance in Chandigarh. And they will have a little, in a way, will erase all the negative aspects of their season,” Moody said.
Mumbai also comes in red and are solid in all aspects of the game. The Mumbai experience in eliminated games will give them an advantage over Punjab.
The young Punjab King brigade
The Punjab Kings are the only side of this season, the four players without any fists scored more than 280 runs. Prabhsimran Singh scored 567 runs in 16 games, and is the key to PUNJAB in the first order.
Priyansh Arya, Nehal Wadhera and Shashank Singh also contributed to their bat, as long as their side needed it more this season. The PBKs’ main Indian group is their strength at IPL 2025.
