Mumbai Indians captain Sachin Tendulkar won the toss and elected to field against Kolkata Knight Riders in the final roub-robin league match of the Indian Premier League here today.

Mumbai, who tasted defeats in their last three matches, have made three changes in their playing eleven, bringing in Ray Price, who will make his IPL debut, Rajagopal Satish and Abu Nechim Ahmed in place of Andrew Symonds, Dhawal Kulkarni and Munaf Patel respectively.

Kolkata, on the other hand, have fielded an unchanged side from their previous match against Pune Warriors.

Both the teams have already made it to the play-offs and the outcome of this match will only decide the second and third and fourth spots in the standings.

Royal Challengers Bangalore have climbed to the top of the points table after defeating Chennai Super Kings by eights wickets in Bangalore today.

Teams

Kolkata Knight Riders: Gautam Gambhir (capt), Jacques Kallis, Shreevats Goswami, Manoj Tiwary, Yusuf Pathan, Rajat Bhatia, Ryan ten Doeschate, Shakib-al-Hasan, Brett Lee, Laxmipathy Balaji, Iqbal Abdulla.

Mumbai Indians: Sachin Tendulkar (capt), Tirumalasetti Suman, Ambati Rayudu, Rohit Sharma, Kieron Pollard, James Franklin, Harbhajan Singh, Ray Price, Rajagopal Sathish, Abu Nechim Ahmed, Lasith Malinga.
