Team\u2019s balance has become better because of the impact player, and I\u2019m waiting for moments where my bowling could be required, similarly with my batting. We won our first game convincingly at home, and it feels good to be back here after travelling to Kolkata. The full focus now is to ace the next six home matches, and maintain a solid team balance. On this surface, the bounce is ideal for my style of batting \u2013 it makes it easy for me to score runs and in the previous game we also noticed the ball was gripping.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>LSG won the toss and opted to field first while RCB skipper Faf was confused with his decision, considering the pitch turned out to be different from what both the franchises expected. According to the skippers, the pitch seems a bit dry and it was \u201c50-50\u201d for skipper Faf to give thought to what to opt for.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><b>Faf du Plessis<\/b>: Does look a little bit dry. We were 50-50 as to what to do. We did chase last time around. We were thinking of changing it around this time. We are looking foward to this contest.
