Mumbai: Mumbai Indians (MI) won the toss and invited Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) to bat first in the seventh encounter of the tenth season of Indian Premier League (IPL), at the Wankhede Stadium here on Sunday.

Mumbai would be highly delighted to get Lasith Malinga and Harbhajan Singh back in the squad for Tim Southee and Ambati Rayudu. On the other hand, KKR has dropped Piyush Chawla for Ankit Rajpoot.

KKR also wanted to field first as they know that in the previous season, the teams batting first had posted at least 170 runs, but had lost all the four matches.
