After the toss, Gill said that on this pitch there is swing in the first 4-5 overs and that is why considering the dew, we want to chase runs. These two matches will decide how far we go in the tournament. RCB is playing very well. They are the defending champions and are playing like that. We are playing with the same team.
Whereas RCB captain Rajat Patidar said that we were thinking of fielding first. I don’t think grass will help much. Hopefully we will make a good total. It was good to see the way we played the first half of the IPL. This is a positive sign for us, we are waiting for it. We are playing with the same team. Both the teams are as follows:-
