1 – Punjab Kings have won only one out of the eight matches they played at MCA International Stadium in Pune. The only win came back in 2013, against Pune Warriors.

1 – Rohit Sharma needs one more four to reach 500 fours in the IPL. He will become the fifth player to the landmark after Shikhar Dhawan, Virat Kohli, David Warner, and Suresh Raina.
4 – Kieron Pollard needs four more catches to reach 100 catches for Mumbai Indians in the IPL. He will then become the first specialist fielder to take 100 catches for a single team.
4 – Jaydev Unadkat needs four wickets to reach the milestone of 200 wickets in T20 cricket.
25 – Rohit Sharma needs 25 runs to become the second Indian player to 10000 runs in T20 cricket, after Virat Kohli.

Pitch Report:

This pitch here has helped the fast bowlers and has been very sporting, and today is no different. There is a good layer of lively grass and there will be pace and bounce on offer. But that could be a double-edged sword. Batting first might not be that bad an idea.
