The game which was initially delayed due to rain has finally begun and Delhi Capitals have opted to bowl first, allowing the visitors to bat first.
Here’s what the captains had to say –
Nitish Rana: We are playing after 3 years thanks to Covid. Every thing feels new. We have four changes. Tough to remember. If we play as a unit. It should be tough to beat us.
David Warner: We will have a bowl first. Weather being around, you don’t know what the total is going to be. We haven’t been disciplined with the ball. We have two changes.
