Sachin Tendulkar returned to Indian Premier League action after a fortnight-long injury lay-off as Mumbai Indians won the toss and elected to bat against Kings XI Punjab here on Sunday.

Tendulkar had played the season opening tie against Chennai Super Kings on April 4, a match in which he picked up a finger injury and missed MI's next four games.

MI also brought back New Zealander James Franklin into the eleven along with Sri Lankan speedster Tissera Perera.

Kings XI included left-arm spinner Bhargav Bhatt and Siddharth Chitnis and left out Paul Valthaty and Harmeet Singh.

The teams:

Mumbai Indians: Harbhajan Singh (capt), Sachin Tendulkar, James Franklin, Kieron Pollard, Dinesh Kartik, Pragyan Ojha, Ambati Rayudu, Munaf Patel, Rohit Sharma, Rudra Pratap Singh Thissera Perera.

Kings XI Punjab: David Hussey (Capt.), Nitin Saini, Bhargav Bhatt, Mandeep Singh, Parwinder Awana, Piyush Chawla, Praveen Kumar, Sidharth Chitnis, Azhar Mahmood, David Miller, Shaun Marsh.
