Both team captains at the toss

Shreyas Iyer: We are gonna bowl first. We are comfortable chasing with a set target in mind. All the teams are equally good and we always have to take that winning mindset and try and back your abilities. We got two changes. Pat Cummins comes in place of Southee and Rasikh Salam comes in for Shivam Mavi. Southee was very supportive and we had a good conversation about the team changes.

Rohit Sharma: We were looking to bat first. We are not looking at what happened in the last 2 games, we have to play good cricket to win games and that is what we are prepared for. Looks like a good pitch. We have done well in patches and when you want to win games you gotta perform collectively and I think that is something that was missing in the last 2 games. Couple of changes. Surykumar Yadav comes in place of Anmolpreet Singh and we got Dewald Brevis who comes in for Tim David.

Baby AB show tonight!

South Africa U-19 batter Dewald Brevis will be playing his first IPL match for Mumbai Indians tonight.

Pitch Report

"It's a fresh pitch. The pace and bounce on this venue is lot quicker compared to the other venues. There is a tinge of green, live grass and it sounds very firm. It's not going to be too different from the last game. This is the only venue where both games have been won by the team batting first," says Deep Dasgupta.

Five-time Champions vs Two-time champions

Pat Cummins likely to feature for Knights tonight

Feeling good, it's been about 10 days since we finished our last (Test) match, have joined the boys a few days back and pumped to be back here. I 'm happy to play my role anywhere in the team, hopefully I can add something to the best of my ability. Ity depends on the sample size, it helps playing against certain people, like having played a lot against Rohit Sharma, it helps at times, but it doesn't mean you'll succeed every time (on match-ups). I'm here if he needs me, but he has some great people around him, I have been with him a few years ago, so I can help him in any way I can.
