No Puthur for MI
Kerala spinner Vignesh Puthur, who picked up three wickets for 32 runs in four overs against CSK on his IPL debut last Sunday (March 23) is not playing for the five-time champions against Gujarat Titans. He was not included in the list of impact players as well which was raised doubts over his fitness. In addition to him, England all-rounder Will Jacks is also part of MI’s playing XI.
The former RCB batter was left out to make way for Afghanistan spinner Mujeeb Ur Rahman.
