IPL updates: Mumbai Indians win toss, to field vs Punjab

Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma has won the toss and has put the opposition in to bat. 

Two-time champions Mumbai Indians have been on a roll in the Indian Premier League this season and would look to continue the winning streak against Kings XI Punjab in Indore tonight.

This is Punjab’s last home match in Indore and they will look to make amends for their dismal show so far.

Having won four out of the five matches thus far, Mumbai Indians are placed second with eight points and start as favourites against Punjab, who have managed to win just two of their five games.

Mumbai will look to their batsmen to shine again and dominate the opponents.

Kings XI Punjab, on the other hand, will have their task cut out against a strong Mumbai outfit.

Despite starting their campaign with back-to-back victories, Kings XI slipped in the next three games and would now be desperate to get back to winning ways.

Kings XI Punjab Playing XI: Hashim, Amla, Shaun Marsh, Glenn Maxwell, Marcus Stoinis, Wriddhiman Saha, Axar Patel, Gurkeerat Mann Singh, Swapnil Singh, Mohit Sharma, Sandeep Sharma, Ishant Sharma
