Mumbai Indians have won the toss and have opted to field
Hardik Pandya: We are going to bowl first. It has been under covers, in rain effected games you should bat second. That has always been back of the mind.
Riyan Parag: We would have done the same thing actually. It was supposed to be dry but then it rained a lot. It is what it is. We have had two different types of games, but really happy with how the boys handled the pressure. Same team.
Pitch Report: The black-soil pitch has been well prepared and should be good for batting, offering a consistent surface. However, it may be slightly slower than previous games, with spinners likely to get some help as the match goes on.
