Back to back games and not much time to think about it. No Shikhar, that's why I am here but he's recovering and should be back soon. Great opportunity for the others to put their hand and we are going with the same team. Lot of close games for us. We would have bowled as well, that is the trend but hopefully we do well. Have a good powerplay and then take it from there.
We are going to have a bowl first. Really nice to have some wins under the belt, winning is always nice and the atmosphere is good but the job is not done. Quite surprisingly nice and pleasant. Looking forward to this game. We have had some injuries but Jofra is back and that is the only change. Wankhede is a good pitch to bat on and it gets better as the game goes on, hopefully we restrict them and chase it down later
Archer is back in the mix and is geared up to play.
Mumbai Indians have won the toss and opted to bowl first. It's time for Punjab Kings to bat first.

As for the weather, first of all, there is no chance of rain whatsoever, according to Accuweather. A cloud cover less than 8% is expected throughout the match. The temperature will be around 28-30 Degrees Celsius during match hours. The fans should get to witness full 40 overs of action.
