The other players of the MI team practiced at Wankhede on Friday night. The players of KKR also practiced at Wankhede and seemed ready. However, the availability of Matheesha Pathirana still needs to be confirmed. The teams will practice again on Saturday. Everyone will be keeping an eye on Bumrah before the big match.
