Delhi Capitals have won the toss and have opted to field
Axar Patel: We will bowl first. We have chased well in the last two games. That is why we want to chase.
Shubman Gill – It’s much better (on his neck issue), it’s something similar (to what happened in the Test agianst South Africa). We were going to bat first anyway, if the weather stays this way, there’ll be no dew in the second innings
Pitch report- Correctly assessing pitch and conditions is the first step towards winning any match. Let’s focus on the boundary dimensions. Square boundaries are quite equidistant so no worries there. Down the ground is 73m. Behind me are sub-60m boundaries and batters might try to target that. Now, for this pitch and conditions
