With the IPL 2020 entering its last leg of fixtures, Bangalore and Mumbai are set to fight it out on Wednesday at the ASheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium to book their seat for the playoffs. Mumbai are expected to be without their skipper Rohit Sharma who is recovering from a hamstring injury while Bangalore have been jolted with a severe blow with Navdeep Saini sustaining an injury. Both the teams need just one win to qualify for the playoffs and have been made to wait by the bottom tier as they both faced a defeat in their previous fixtures. However, Bangalore & Mumbai will be aiming for a seat in the top two to get an extra chance to get into the finals. 

7: 05 IST, October 28th 2020

"Pretty happy with batting first, exactly what we wanted to do. Quite a few changes tonight. Saini misses out, Shivam Dube comes in. Josh Phillipe comes in for Aaron Finch and Dale Steyn comes in for Moeen Ali. Seemed pretty one-sided for the first couple of weeks and the teams in the lower half are fighting hard and it's important for us, we have been playing some consistent cricket and we have played well together as a team and tonight we are looking to execute our plans well," said skipper Virat Kohli at the toss.

Mumbai (Playing XI): Ishan Kishan, Quinton de Kock(w), Suryakumar Yadav, Saurabh Tiwary, Hardik Pandya, Kieron Pollard(c), Krunal Pandya, James Pattinson, Rahul Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah

Bangalore (Playing XI): Devdutt Padikkal, Josh Philippe, Virat Kohli(c), AB de Villiers(w), Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Shivam Dube, Chris Morris, Washington Sundar, Dale Steyn, Mohammed Siraj, Yuzvendra Chahal

6: 38 IST, October 28th 2020

The last couple of games at this venue have seen teams scoring in excess of 190 on three occasions which means the surface is favourable for batting. There will be swing initially with the new ball which the pacers should look to exploit. There is ample spin in the wicket too. Batsmen should see off the new ball and get settled at the crease before shifting gears.

The surface at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium has gone on to get better as the game has progressed which is why the team winning the toss could look to field first and restrict the opposition to a low total. The average first innings score at this venue in the Dream11 IPL 2020 has been 162. The teams batting first have won six games while the sides chasing have triumphed on nine occasions. One game has ended in a tie.
