“We have decided to bowl first. The pitch looks similar to the one we played on against LSG. It looks good but might have slightly less bounce. There was some dew last night, which also influenced our decision to bowl first. Every player in our team has faced these types of conditions before and knows how to overcome them. We have had open and honest conversations. Now, if we play together as a team, good results will come. We played good cricket for about 35 overs in the last three matches, but this is a crucial stage in the IPL. A single slip-up can hurt us badly. We have made two changes: Farooqi and Tushar are out, and Maheesh Theekshana and Yudhvir Singh Charak have come into the team.”
