MI vs KKR, Wankhede Stadium Pitch Report:
The pitch at Wankhede Stadium will assist pacers with some swing on offer initially, but it will last for the first few overs only. Some grass covering on the wicket, but it is only there to hold the surface. Winning the toss and chasing is the best chance for anyone to win on this ground with the inevitable dew factor.
