Mumbai, Apr 29 : Hello and welcome to the 40th match of this Indian T20 league. Mumbai take on Deccan in this match and will be desperate for a win. We witnessed a close match at Delhi, where Delhi managed to snatch a win by a run against a strong Rajasthan team.
Mumbai Indians have won the toss and elected to field
White: Sanga and Lehman decided this will be the right combination for these conditions. Last match was a good experience, hopefully it's a different day and we will look to continue our winning ways. This track is good for batting and we hope to put up a good show. I also would have bowled first as the grass would have helped the faster bowlers. This game is all about momentum. Mumbai are a good side and as we are batting first, we will look to put up a good total. Lots of changes today in the side. Our foreign players are - Steyn, White, Christian and Duminy.
Harbhajan: We have to make a move now. So far we have not played upto our potential. Now during the last stages of the tourney we have to improve. The second part of the tournament is important and next few games will be crucial for all the teams. It's important to keep winning now. We will bowl first as the pitch has more grass on it. Munaf has come back into the side and Levi also makes a comeback. They played well in the last game and we will stick to our basics in this game.
