Spinner Yuzvendra Chahal returned to the Punjab Kings playing XI for the IPL 2025 Qualifier 2 match against Mumbai Indians in Ahmedabad on Sunday.

Who has Yuzvendra Chahal replaced in PBKS playing XI vs MI?
Yuzvendra Chahal has replaced fellow spinner Harpreet Brar in the Punjab Kings playing XI for the all-important Qualifier 2 match against Mumbai Indians. Harpreet Brar has played all three matches that Chahal missed since the latter suffered the injury and has taken three wickets. He went wicketless in the Qualifier 1 loss to Royal Challengers Bengaluru.

For the game against Mumbai Indians, Harpreet Brar finds himself among the impact player substitutes list. However, he is less likely to play the game against Mumbai Indians because opener Prabhsimran Singh also features as one of the substitutes. Punjab Kings won the toss and opted to field against Mumbai Indians, meaning that Prabhsimran Singh could be their impact player when the Kings begin their run chase.
At the IPL 2025 mega auction, Punjab Kings acquired Yuzvendra Chahal for INR 18 crore. He has taken 14 wickets from 12 matches so far at an economy rate of 9.57.
