Captain words

“We are looking to bowl. Boult is coming in place of Jason Holder. Padikkal is playing when we bat, I am not sure. We’ll keep learning about it (impact sub). I’d like to score some runs today,” Sanju Samson, RR skipper said after toss.

“It has been a belter so far. It’s a good toss to lose, don’t mind batting or bowling first. For us, it’s important how we use it (impact player). We’ll use it only when required. Forced change, Vijay Shankar isn’t playing. Abhinav comes in for him. It’s my home state, lot of love, everyone comes here and supports us, exciting,” Hardik Pandya, GT skipper after toss.
