IPL 2021 MI vs KKR Toss Today: Find the list of all toss and match results for Mumbai Indians vs Kolkata Knight Riders in IPL 2021 so far.
Mumbai Indians (MI) would look for inspiration from skipper Rohit Sharma when the defending champions take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in the second phase of IPL 2021. The Mumbai outfit was without the services of skipper Rohit and all-rounder Hardik Pandya in their 20-run defeat to Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Rohit is likely to be fit and available for selection against KKR, having missed the previous match due to a niggle.
Kolkata, on the other hand, recorded a commanding nine-wicket win over Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) in their UAE leg opener. Mystery spinner Varun Chakravarthy and star all-rounder Andre Russell wreaked havoc with the ball before the opening duo of Shubman Gill and debutant Venkatesh Iyer steered KKR to the victory.

PITCH UPDATE
"This is an absolute fast bowlers paradise, isn't it. Tonight it is going to be a battle of spin, fast bowlers do pick up wickets here and that is because it is a bit grassy with a slow tennis ball kind of bounce. Generally spin is very hard to score at and they take 40 per cent of the wickets. Batters might have a tough time," said Danny Morrison and Matthew Hayden about the surface.
