The Indians of the Bombai were forced to make three changes on their side in the Premier League, Indian eliminator against Gujarat Titans on Friday 30th May. He plays at the Mullanpur stadium in New Chandigarh, giving me three debuts to the side.
Mumbai had to replace Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks and Corbin Bosch in his team who left for national duties and did in the form of Jonny Bairstow, Richard Gleeson and Raj Angad Bawa.
While Bairstow and Gleeson made my debut, Raj Angad Bawa received his first cap in the competition. Captain Hardik Pandya revealed changes in throwing after Mumbai decided to bat first.
“We’ll be on the bat. It looks like a different song than yesterday. A little less grass. Big game, scoring runs and defense would be nice. We are all aware that we played it as a knockout. We really have to appear today and focus on things we can control.
