IPL 10: Pune VS Mumbai Match PREVIEW | Oneindia News

Описание: Pune will take on Mumbai in the second match of the IPL 2017 at the MCA Stadium. Here is the preview of the match. With a new captain in place, Pune would look to make amends for a poor last season but have a tough opening battle at hand against two-time former champions Mumbai. Pune decided to replace Mahendra Singh Dhoni with Steve Smith in the leadership role. Ben Stokes, who was bought for a whopping Rs 14.5 crore, and his performance with both the bat and ball will be eyed. Smith and Faf du Plessis both got injured the last time. Pune will be banking on Ajinkya Rahane as well. In the absence of star India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, Ashok Dinda will spearhead the team's bowling. Pune bowling attack would have its task cut out against a strong Mumbai batting line-up. Mumbai skipper Rohit Sharma's form at the top will be important, while Kieron Pollard and Jos Buttler's big hits, and veteran spinner Harbhajan Singh would decide how the team would fare in the match. Mumbai is one team that has not been striked by injuries. This will allow them to pick from a talented pool of overseas and Indian cricketers, including Mitchell Johnson, Lendl Simmons, Lasith Malinga, Parthiv Patel and Jasprit Bumrah among others. Having finished fifth in the previous season, Mumbai would not leave any stone unturned to make the top-four in this edition under new coach Mahela Jayawardene, who has taken over from highly successful Ricky Ponting.
