IPL 2018: Hardik Pandya to return for Mumbai Indian against DD

On Saturday, Hardik Pandya's presence back in the nets is a huge boost for Mumbai, who face Delhi in an Indian PreMumbaier League (T20) tie at the Wankhede Stadium. The Baroda all-rounder, who twisted his ankle in the season-opener to Chennai and subsequently Mumbaissed the next rubber to Hyderabad, sweated it out during an optional Mumbai training session yesterday. After a brief warm-up, Pandya was right on the money as he bowled almost three overs to Evin Lewis.

The West Indies southpaw, who hasn't really announced his arrival this season with paltry scores of naught and 29 in the first two matches, spent over two hours in the nets constantly dispatching the white ball into the stands. Pandya soon put on the gloves and entered the second net, where he smashed the ball around with ease, one almost hitting the press box on the second floor. What's hurting Mumbai is that though their new squad has plenty of match-winners, none, barring the Bhatinda boy Mayank Markande seem to have found their mojo.

Mumbai Indians (Probable XI): Evin Lewis, Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Mitchell McClenaghan, Makrand Markande, Jasprit Bumrah, Mustafizur Rahman

Delhi Daredevils (Probable XI): Evin Lewis, Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan, Suryakumar Yadav, Hardik Pandya, Krunal Pandya, Kieron Pollard, Mitchell McClenaghan, Makrand Markande, Jasprit Bumrah, Mustafizur Rahman
