PBKS vs SRH Live Score, IPL 2026: Punjab Kings have won the toss and have decided to bowl first. PBKS are going with an unchanged playing XI while SRH have made two. After a five-day break, Punjab Kings are back for their 4th match of the Indian Premier League 2026. After rain washed out their last match in Kolkata, PBKS are eager to get back to winning ways against a struggling Sunrisers Hyderabad, who are still without their main pacer and captain Pat Cummins. But in Mullanpur, PBKS haven’t had a good record with just 4 wins in 11 games. That provides SRH an opportunity to claim two points.

Check out the match prediction here. PBKS vs SRH LIVE: All eyes on Abhishek Sharma
11/04/2026 14:09
Abhishek Sharma's poor form from the T20 World Cup 2026 has spilled over to the IPL as well, with the SRH opener managing to score just 55 runs in 3 matches, at an average of 18.33 although he has a strike rate of over 170. His only impactful innings came against KKR where he managed to score 48 runs. Sharma needs to go all guns blazing if SRH fancy a chance of toppling PBKS.
PBKS vs SRH, IPL 2026 LIVE: Mullanpur pitch report
11/04/2026 14:04
The surface in Mullanpur isn’t high-scoring like what we see in Hyderabad, Mumbai or Bengaluru. There is a thin layer of grass, which helps the seamers early on, but the pitch underneath remains dry. That combination means the new ball can move around for a few overs before the surface begins to slow down. Unlike some of the flatter venues this season, this is not a ground where batters can go hard from ball one. The ball tends to grip as it gets older, especially in an afternoon game where there is no dew to ease conditions later.
