The umpires are making their way out to the middle. Tilak Varma is padded up doing some shadow practice. Punjab Kings have a quick huddle before taking the field. Here come Rohit and Ishan. The new ball has done a bit at this venue. Can Rabada and Arshdeep strike early? But looks like they are starting with spin. There goes all the pitch assessment. Livingstone has the new ball. He will bowl off-spin to Ishan and leg-breaks to Rohit.
Punjab Kings have made a couple of changes from their previous game while Mumbai Indians are sticking to the same team. We have made one change to our Expert XI and you can check who comes in at Fantasy Handbook.
Here are the Impact substitutes for both the teams:
Hardik Pandya: We were wanting to bat first as well, so good toss to lose.
Sam Curran: 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.
Punjab Kings have won the toss and have opted to field
Shikhar Dhawan missed the last game due to a niggle. And looks like he will miss this game as well. Sam Curran is walking out..
