Mumbai: Mumbai captain Hardik Pandya has chosen to bowl after winning the toss in the match against RCB.
In the 25th league match of the IPL series, the Mumbai team has taken the field against the RCB team. Mumbai team captain Hardik Pandya has chosen to bowl after winning the toss in this match which has started at the Wankhede Stadium. Mumbai’s Wankhede stadium is predicted to favor batting pitches as there will be heavy snowfall during the second innings.
Following this, while Mumbai team captain Hardik Pandya spoke, we are bowling. I hope it will be a favorable pitch for batting like last match. But we’re doing the chasing this time. As there is sure to be snow, chasing is the right thing to do. There has been a huge change in the mentality of the team after the first win.
In this match we need to start well, put pressure on the opposition and move forward. We set a huge target in the last match without a single half-century. It has given us more confidence. Also be careful with power play bowling. Piyush Chawla has been replaced by Shreyas Gopal.
Continuing with Du Plessis, we have made some changes for this match. We gave opportunity to some new players and some senior players. It is their duty to take advantage of that opportunity. I think we have provided at least the minimum opportunities. But the expected success did not come. So it’s time for a change.
The concern is that we lack consistency. There is an opportunity to change that. We also like chasing on this pitch. But no worries about batting. 3 changes have been made in the RCB team. Jax is introduced. He will also field as a 3rd player. Lomror and Vijaykumar Vaisak have also been included, he said. They were replaced by Anuj Rawat, Cameron Green and Yash Dayal.
