Mumbai Indians made one-change to their line-up, bringing in young medium pacer Rishi Dhawan in place of Munaf Patel.
However, Sachin Tendulkar, who retired hurt after injuring his left wrist in their match against Sunrisers Hyderabad on May 13, has been ruled out of the match as he is yet to recover fully from the injury.
The winners of the second qualifier will set up the final clash against Chennai Super Kings on Sunday.
Earlier, evening showers delayed the start of the match by an hour even as there was no reduction to the stipulated 20 overs-a-side affair.
