PBKS vs MI: Captains Thoughts

Shreyas Iyer (Punjab Kings Captain): "I would've bowled first as well. The wicket looks dry. Like we saw in the last game, it got better in the second innings. I feel that anything over 200 will be a brilliant score on this wicket and you still don't know how the wicket will play. You have to be positive and optimistic. 

Jasprit Bumrah (Mumbai Indians Captain): "We have decided to bowl first. We saw the last game and we feel with the cold weather coming around the wicket will settle a little bit and the ball will come better on the second innings.

[on captaining MI for the first time] It feels good. I came here as a nineteen year old. I didn't think I'll be a Test captain before I captain Mumbai Indians but this is a fun place to be. You look after everyone and you want to contribute in whatever way possible. I like responsibility. This is a new challenge. I'll look to have fun in this match.
