Pollard banged in and Rahul went for the pull shot. Comes off the glove and taken easily by Jasprit Bumrah at short fine leg.Wicket no 299 was off Chris Gayle. Kieron Pollard goes for a cutter back of a length, and Chris Gayle can’t get hold of this. Flies down to Hardik Pandya at long on, who makes no mistake.Earlier, Mumbai Indians skipper Rohit Sharma won the toss and opted to field against Punjab Kings.Mumbai Indians made a couple of changes, bringing in Saurabh Tiwary in place of out of form Ishan Kishan, while Nathan Coulter-Nile came in for Adam Milne.Ishan Kishan’s IPL 2021 form has been a cause for concern. In 8 matches, Ishan Kishan has just scored 108 runs without a single fifty.For Punjab, opener Mayank Agarwal missed out due to a stiff neck and Mandeep Singh was included in his place in the playing XI.Mumbai Indians, the 5-time champions, can’t afford any more slip-ups after having slipped to the 7th spot with just 4 wins from 10 matches so far. In the UAE leg of IPL 2021, the holders have lost 3 matches on the bounce.Click here for our site’s complete coverage of the coronavirus pandemic.
