Delhi pacer Irfan Pathan first got rid of Ricky Ponting (0) on the final ball of the first over before Mumbai got off the mark.
Ponting came down the track and tried to loft Pathan over mid-off, but struck it straight to Mahela Jayawardene.
In the next over Tendulkar got run out, giving Delhi edge in the early overs.
Mumbai Indians will have the service of star pacer Lasith Mailnga along with Rishi Dhawan.
Daredevils on the other hand will miss opener Virender Sehwag who is yet to recover from injury. However, the good news for Delhi is that Morne Morkel is back. The pacer replaced Andre Russell. The visitors also brought in Jeevan Mendis for Johan Botha.
For the Mumbai Indians, this will be their third big game in a row. They lost to the Royal Challengers Bangalore but beat the Chennai Super Kings in their own den.
Mumbai Indians: Ricky Ponting (C), Sachin Tendulkar, Dinesh Karthik, Rohit Sharma, Ambati Rayudu, Kieron Pollard, Rishi Dhawan, Harbhajan Singh, Mitchell Johnson, Pragyan Ojha, Lasith Malinga
