Hello and welcome to Game 41 of IPL 2016.Royal Challengers Bangalore take on Mumbai Indians at Bangalore.

Mumbai Indians have won the toss and they opted to field

Virat Kohli: I think I need to get the coin from Sholay, no matter what I do I lose the toss. Rohit is spot on. Two games before, we were nowhere and now we are among the top five-six teams. We just have to put the runs on the board now. The surface looks pretty dry similar to the game against Pune. Aravind is coming in for Abdulla and Gayle is back for Head.

Rohit Sharma: We are going to bowl first. Crunch game for both teams. As a professional unit we have to concentrate on the process than thinking about the result. Need to think about playing good cricket and not look at the table. Our focus basically has to be on good cricket. Nitish Rana comes in for Hardik Pandya.
