Kings XI Punjab: KL Rahul(w/c), Mayank Agarwal, Chris Gayle, Nicholas Pooran, Glenn Maxwell, Deepak Hooda, Chris Jordan, Murugan Ashwin, Mohammed Shami, Ravi Bishnoi, Arshdeep Singh
Captains at the toss!
Rohit Sharma: “We’re having a bat first. We want to put runs on the board, the team has done well doing that. We don’t need to change that. It is an important game for us and putting runs on the board would be ideal. The team has looked balanced. Guys have put their hands up in different situations. Bumrah is an important cog and him doing well reflects the team performance. We’re going in with the same team.”
KL Rahul: “We’re at that stage where the toss doesn’t matter. We need to show energy and try to win everything from here. Last game was too close for comfort but we needed a win like that to get over the line. We’re also going in with the same team.”
Toss news: Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma wins toss, opts to bat against Kings XI Punjab in Dubai
Pitch report: “Same track as the one used yesterday afternoon. It hasn’t changed since RR scored 177 here yesterday, but it looks a little drier. Spinners did a good job yesterday going for about 8 an over in general. Not much turn, but it will turn a little bit today. Be wary of the spinners, but also be wary of the short boundaries on one side, ranging from 61 to 65 meters behind square for the right-hander. No wind around to intervene, but 165-170 should be enough. If you bowl well, you should be all right,” said Simon Doull.
A new hairdo for Hardik Pandya!

Players from both the teams are out in the middle, warming up ahead of the crucial clash. We are just minutes away from the toss.
