New Delhi

Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel won the toss and chose to bowl against Mumbai Indians in their IPL clash on Saturday.

Mumbai were forced into a late change in leadership as regular skipper Hardik Pandya missed the match due to illness. In his absence, Suryakumar Yadav was handed the captaincy for the game.

The five-time champions also reshuffled their playing XI, with Deepak Chahar coming in as a replacement for Pandya. Additionally, Corbin Bosch and Mitchell Santner were included in place of Trent Boult and Allah Ghazanfar.

Delhi Capitals, meanwhile, decided to stick with their existing combination.
