New Delhi: Mumbai Indians skipper Hardik Pandya won the coin toss and has been selected to play against Rajasthan Royals in Guwahati on Tuesday. Mumbai Indians captain Hardik Pandya missed the last match against Delhi Capitals while Trent Boult is back in the team. While Rajasthan Royals are playing with the same team. This will be an 11-over game. The Powerplay will be 3.2 overs.“We’re going to bowl first. It’s been under cover, in rain– Affected matches you should hit second. It just gives you a clear idea of what the total should be. (Was it because it had rained and there was going to be more rain that he chose to bowl and it was a shortened game?) Yes, that’s always been my thought. It’s only the beginning of the season and we’re bound to make mistakes; you don’t win the IPL in the first few weeks. I’m back and so is Borty,” Hardik Pandya said during the toss.RR captain Riyan Parag said: “Actually, we would have done the same thing (bowling first). The pitch was supposed to be dry but then it rained a lot. That’s what happened. We played two different types of games but are very happy with the way the kids handled the pressure. We are the same team.”teamRajasthan Royals (Starting XI): Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhruv Jurel (w), Riyan Parag (c), Shimron Hetmyer, Donovan Ferreira, Ravindra Jadeja, Jofra Archer, Nandre Burger, Tushar Deshpande, Sandeep SharmaMumbai Indians (Starting XI): Rohit Sharma, Ryan Rickton (female), Tilak Varma, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya (centre), Naman Deer, Shardul Thakur, Deepak Chahar, AM Ghazinfar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah.
