Mumbai Indians captain Rohit Sharma has won the toss and elected to bowl.

He says that there might be a bit of dew later and it might come into play.

Kolkata Knight Riders are playing three spinners, but Sunil Narine is not one of them.

Left-arm chinaman bowler Kuldeep Yadav comes into the side in place of fast bowler Umesh Yadav.

Meanwhile, Mumbai will miss the services of opener Lendl Simmons, who is ruled out because of injury. Parthiv Patel replaces him, while Kiwi pacer Tim Southee takes the place of R Vinay Kumar.

Left-arm spinner Jagadeesha Suchith comes in for leg-spinner Shreyas Gopal.
