While this exchange is certain to bring a smile to the fans’ faces, more importantly, it’s great to see the bond that Buttler and Patel have formed, despite competitive nature of the game.
Mumbai will start their 2017 campaign in the Maharastra derby against Rising Pune Supergiant on April 6 in Pune.
