Rajasthan made no change while Mumbai Indians brought in Rishi Dhawan for Munaf Patel. Sachin Tendulkar missed the second qualifier due to injury.
Though the start of the play-off game was delayed by an hour due to rain, the number of overs has not been reduced.
The city, which has been experiencing inclement weather over the past few days, was lashed by showers in the evening, prompting the organisers to put on the covers on the Eden Gardens turf.
Though the rain stopped after some time, the soggy outfield prompted the umpires to decide on a 9 p.m. start instead of the originally scheduled 8 p.m.
Mumbai Indians: Aditya Tare, Dwayne Smith, Dinesh Karthik, Rohit Sharma*, Kieron Pollard, Ambati Rayudu, Harbhajan Singh, Mitchell Johnson, Lasith Malinga, Pragyan Ojha, Rishi Dhawan
Rajasthan Royals: Rahul Dravid*, Ajinkya Rahane, Shane Watson, Sanju Samson, Stuart Binny, Brad Hodge, Dishant Yagnik, Kevon Cooper, James Faulkner, VS Malik, Siddharth Trivedi
