Royal Challengers Bangalore have won the toss and have opted to field
Rohit Sharma: “Looks a hard wicket, similar to the last two games and the surface shouldn’t be changing much. Dew will be a factor but the guys have played here before and realise that. The second half will be tough, won’t be easy. We need to be positive. It’s a tough situation that we are in but we have done it before and I don’t see any reason why cannot do it again. Won’t be easy. Need to do the little things better. We have one change – McClenaghan comes in for Dananjaya.”
Virat Kohli: “We are gonna have a bowl first. Looks a damp wicket, there was a damp cover since the evening. We expect it to do a little bit with the new ball. It’s been a hard ground to defend. We want to give ourselves the best chance with the new ball. Nothing really, we did 70 percent things well last game, the 30 that didn’t went really bad. We just need to get things right. Considering the pitch, we have three changes – Siraj, Anderson and Sarfaraz come in for McCullum, Khejrolia and Negi.”
