Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians, 9th Match, Indian Premier League 2019 - CommentaryPBKS vs MI, 9th Match, Indian Premier League 2019 - Commentary

Harsha Bhogle: Many issues to resolve for MI. The logjam in the middle and the rekindling of Hardik Pandya the bowler.

Tarun: "Rahul has to remember that Bumrah and Malinga are going to bowl in the death overs, it's better not to have more than 9 required run rate at the back end." --- He's heard you Tarun.

Ashik: Pollard seems to be more of a liability in the team, not much contribution in batting or bowling. Mumbai should try other players as they have many better options who are more capable and can contribute more

Vasisth: No bodyline attack to Gayle? This has been one of his weakness over the years and last time KKR got it bang on. Don't see good planning from MI.

Ajith: "KL Rahul looks totally different from the last year"

Sidh: "It would have been a good idea to start the bowling with Bumrah instead of Malinga. With Rahul and Gayle out there any early wicket will be a big wicket. Malinga anyways can bowl better with the older bowl."

Chethan C R: "A leg spinner again among the wickets, such a powerful weapon to have in your team. They don't need helpful conditions to take wickets. They can do it on a flat cement-like-track also."

Harpreet Singh: "MI are now over-investing In Pollard. They are just hoping him to become Russel. They should try Even Lewis or Ben Cutting instead."

Shrey: "Seems like Pollard is out of form. He has not being able to hit those big hits."

Abinash Das: "@kaushal The lengths these two bowl in T-20 and one day will be different. IPL will also be a reality check on the current skill level and what all grey areas needs to be covered before the WC 2019. They will definitely be back with a bang in the world cup."

Manoj Papisetty: "This batting effort from MI is looking very much like the last game. Big start, flurry of wickets in the middle.. And now waiting to see if one of the Pandya's can go BIG!"

Kaushal Baid: "Bhuvi and Shami have been so expensive. Bad signs for India before WC."

Karthik S: "That is poor from Rohit - He is experienced enough to know that this DRS could have been umpires call and should have taken it."

Chethan C R: "de kock has to deliver today...otherwise his place in the playing 11 is in danger because Ishan kishan is waiting in the wing."

Saatvik: "7 ball over is ridiculous. Umpiring needs to improve big time."

Pandeyji: "Seven-ball-over shouldn't happen at this level, very poor umpiring. Even though I am a Mumbai fan but this is not good for the game."

Raja Reddy: "Very harsh on Varun to get dropped from the playing XI only after one match. He deserves one more chance." ------ Ashwin at the toss told it was a forced change.
