Toss time - Delhi have won it and opted to bowl. Malinga is under the weather, says Rohit, so Mitchell Johnson comes in. Batting first will also be a challenge for them, he says.

Zaheer says his heart is always with Mumbai since it's his home ground here. Three changes for Delhi - Jayant Yadav, Angelo Mathews and Sam Billings left out. That means an IPL debut for Kagiso Rabada and Aditya Tare also gets a game. It's a full pace battery, Zaheer said. Looks like the third player to come in in Corey Anderson

DD looks rather weak in batting - Iyer was bad as an opener, so dropping Billings didn't make sense. I know it's tough to drop Cummins, but 4 bowlers - 2 allrounders among them - looks weak. Unless they open w/ Pant or Anderson.

Johnson back in MI? Didn't know. First time this season MI have lost the toss @ Wankhede and don't get to chase
