The absence of David Miller can prove to be a deciding factor in the match as he was the one who played an exceptional knock in the previous season to guide his team to the victory.
Mukesh Choudhary is injured and will miss the match. He may be ruled out of the tournament as well. An official announcement regarding the same is about to come soon.
