Captains at toss
“We are going to bowl first. It looks like a really good wicket. We are very happy to come back to Jaipur and play after 4 years. It’s all about how we react under pressure. We have a fearless attitude. We have one change. Jason (Holder) comes back in for (Adam) Zampa,” Sanju Samson, RR’s skipper.
“We would have bowled first as well. First game here. It’s important that we start well and put a good total on the board. We’ve executed well in most games. We have had clarity with bat on ball. All three skills have been good. We are quite settled. We’ll try to keep that left-hand, right-hand combination going. Quinny still misses out. He’ll just have wait for some more time. I have enjoyed opening with Quinton,” KL Rahul, LSG’s skipper.
