Hardik Pandya’s MI lost to Punjab Kings in the Qualifier 2 match in the IPL 2025 season but will look to go one better this year.Mumbai Indians will open their IPL 2026 campaign at home against three-time winners Kolkata Knight Riders on March 29. Hardik Pandya’s side will then travel to the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi for their second match which will be an afternoon game starting at 3pm on April 4.For their third match, the five-time winners will be travelling to Guwahati, where they will take on Riyan Parag’s Rajasthan Royals at the ACA Stadium in Barsapara on April 7 from 7pm IST onwards. They will finally return home for the clash against Virat Kohli’s Royal Challengers Bengaluru on April 12 with the match starting at 7pm IST.Nita Ambani’s MI had a quiet time in the IPL 2026 mini auction last year with only five slots to fill. They brought back South Africa wicketkeeper-opener Quinton de Kock, who might partner with former captain Rohit Sharma at the top of the order.

They have also traded West Indies batter Sherfane Rutherford from Gujarat Titans ahead of the IPL 2026 as well as Mumbai all-rounder Shardul Thakur from Lucknow Super Giants. Both Rutherford and Thakur are proven customers in the T20I format of the game.The rest of the MI line-up has a settled look with Indian T20I captain Suryakumar Yadav, Pandya himself, Jasprit Bumrah and Tilak Varma forming the core of the side. New Zealand pacer Trent Boult and Afghanistan’s Allah Ghazanfar – if he is fit, should provide much-needed bowling first-power to the Mumbai side.On the first four match schedule of the Mumbai Indians has been announced so far with BCCI declaring the IPL 2026 schedule for the first 20 matches. The MI vs RCB clash is the 20th match of the IPL 2026.The remaining schedule will be announced once the Election Commission reveals the dates for Assembly Elections in states like Bengal and Assam.
