Captains View
Rishabh Pant | DC
We will like to bowl first. The wicket is looking on the drier side, we want to make use of it. Mitch comes in for Sarfaraz Khan. We have not decided yet, maybe he’ll bat three and I’ll bat four. Keep believing in the process and let’s take one match at a time and give our 100%. Hopefully we can capitalise on the shorter side.
Faf du Plessis | RCB
The pitch looks a little bit drier than anticipated. Chennai had two quality batters, putting up a massive partnership there, not looking too much further than that. Breaking up the overs in the middle is something we spoke about and just the combination of the bowlers.
It’s an obvious thing when you come here, you look at the short side and the big side, that’s always tactically how well or how badly you play the short and big boundaries. Tonight’s going to be no different.
Harshal Patel is back which is great. Very sorry about his sister passing away. It’s great to have him back in the side. He’s an experienced X-factor player for us. Akash Deep goes out of the side.

Player of the Match
Dinesh Karthik | RCB
But I must admit that I have a bigger goal. I have been working really hard. I have been trying to do everything to be a part of the Indian team. Depends on the bowler, whoever is bowling well. I respected Kuldeep as he was bowling well. When you are batting at the death, you try and get under the ball more while hitting.
You make me sound like a serial killer (laughs when asked as to how was he so calm and hit them so hard at the same time). I must admit positions and calmness comes from preparations.
Apart from that staying in the moment sounds cliched but it works. He (Shahbaz) is a very special player, I am very sure he is going to do special things. He can hit a ball a long long way. And he backs himself which I like about him.
