DC is at the sixth spot in the points table with four wins and five losses, with eight points. They won their last match against Gujarat Titans by four runs.

On the other hand, MI is in the eighth spot with three wins and five losses, with six points. Mumbai lost their previous match to Rajasthan Royals by nine wickets.

MI skipper Pandya said at the toss, "We are going to bowl first. The ground is small. It is better to bat second on a smaller ground. Every game is a new game, we make sure we are not out. We keep fighting and keep coming hard in each game. The mood is fine, happy chats, all is well. You should not really focus on what has happened in the past. Anyone can beat anyone. Our goal is to play our brand of cricket and put our best foot forward. Only one change, Gerald Coetzee misses out due to a stomach bug, and Luke Wood comes in."

DC skipper Pant said at the toss, "We were looking to bat first. I think it will get slower in the second innings. It has been amazing, we are getting the kind of wickets we want. As a team, we have to play well and we have been. This is something we talked about - how to control the innings. Bowling with the new ball and bowling at the death is difficult, one over here or there is making all the difference. Just one change, Kumar Kushagra comes in for Prithvi Shaw."

Mumbai Indians (Playing XI): Rohit Sharma, Ishan Kishan(w), Tilak Varma, Nehal Wadhera, Hardik Pandya(c), Tim David, Mohammad Nabi, Piyush Chawla, Luke Wood, Jasprit Bumrah, Nuwan Thushara.

Addressing the public, Nadda said, "We know how Sikh brothers have sacrificed their lives for the country. It is a matter of pride for us that such members of the Sikh community join the BJP. There is only the BJP, through which we can take forward the unity, security and integrity of the country."

Further, praising PM Modi for carrying out development works, specifically for the Sikh community, JP Nadda said that the Prime Minister was Punjab in charge for a long time and has been to every district of the state.

"PM Narendra Modi has been to every city and every district of the state and that is why he has so much love for Punjab. We have said for a long time that FCRA registration for the Harmandir Sahib should be done because many people across the world want to donate money. But it was never done and people could not contribute to it in ways they wanted to," he said.

The BJP national president also mentioned what previous governments could not do in 70 years, PM Modi has completed them.

"The previous Prime Ministers could not do this for the Sikh community what PM Narendra Modi has done, and now people across the world can donate to the Harmandir Sahib. When it came to imposing GST on langar served in the gurdwara, our government decided it would pay the GST but the langar would be tax-free. The Kartarpur Corridor is also in front of you. The country was divided in 1947 and it became difficult to pray there. No one has been able to find a solution in 70 years. But PM Modi built Kartarpur Corridor and today we can go there," Nadda said.
