Despite a five-day break he could not get fit. Punjab won the toss and chose to bowl Punjab Kings captain Shreyas Iyer who became the second captain to lead the team in the IPL final won the toss and decided to bowl. Teams batting first in Ahmedabad have usually been successful but Iyer took this decision considering the cloudy weather of Gujarat. Under this strategy he defeated Mumbai Indians on Sunday. Shreyas Iyer said something heart touching After the toss Iyer said I just want to give positive signals to my mind and body. It is a wonderful day. The crowd is tremendous. We just have to come here and enjoy this moment. The boys are in great mindset and fitness. We talked about this in the team meeting that the more calm we are the better we will perform. Nervousness is fine but I will not say that it is like a normal match. This is the final and we will play like the final. The thought of lifting the trophy is exciting.
