Talking about the match, PBKS won the toss and elected to bowl first against MI. Both teams, with just two wins in their first six games, are eager for a victory. PBKS currently sit at eighth place on the points table, while MI are one spot below at ninth.

“We will have a bowl. Keeping up with the trend of the tournament. Shikhar is not well, so that’s the only injury and Rilee comes in for Jonny today. It is not nice to lose the close games but we are doing a lot of things right. Taide drops out of the side, just a couple of tactical changes” said Curran after winning the toss.

Hardik Pandya, once again, made a statement at the toss, emphasizing the team’s strategy to take each game as it comes, especially after their loss to CSK in the previous match.

“We were wanting to bat first as well, so good toss to lose. We don’t judge (our performances), couple of times we had the game in our grasp and didn’t finish the game, IPL tests you, when the game is not over it is not over. We just take it game by game, go out there and give our 100 percent. Every individual should commit to the team’s goal and once we do that, the results will be seen. Same team” said Hardik.
