Captains at the toss:
Shreyas Iyer: “I have been playing really well, hopefully I can continue. It’s a new day and it’s a new occasion for us. Hopefully, we can continue with the momentum. The team is looking in great shape. If not me, then some other guy would come in and chip in a few runs and that’s what we need, the whole team contributing to the team’s victory. It’s really good to have KG and Nortje leading the bowling attack. Every individual is taking responsibility. It’s relaxing for you as a captain. We have a young side, but we are fearless at the same time. Axar comes in place of Amit Mishra.“
Virat Kohli: “We’ll bowl first. Same pitch as last night, played brilliantly, ball was coming on to the bat. In the second half, we saw one partnership and CSK cruised through. With the dew in, you’re really not out of the game when batting second. Unfortunately, Zampa misses out with a stomach problem. He goes out and we had to make a couple changes because of that. Moeen Ali replaces him as the all-round option. Gurkeerat Singh Mann misses out, Siraj comes in. I’m glad that I was able to make a contribution. The whole team put their hands up. I have been playing with that (sort of) expectations for 7-8 years, it’s nothing new. I take a lot of pride in going out there and giving my best. He’s (Devdutt) someone who has come and taken the tournament by storm. We have won those crucial moments. Three wins early on will allow you to play positively.”

Pitch Report:
“It was used last night. It’ll probably be a bit slower. As a batsman, you want to face the pace guys here.” – Kevin Pietersen
