CAPTAIN TAKING:
Virat Kohli (RCB):
We will hit first. It looks like a dry surface and it got considerably slower last night. We saw in the second entry that there was no dew and it was exciting. RCB means a lot, not many understand that emotion. 200 games for them is incredible, I would not have believed it in 2008. It is an honor, they have retained me and I have stayed. When the team wins, you look good as a captain. There have been many people who have raised their hands even after two losses. It’s only halfway there and we have to keep it up. The most important thing is to focus on your own abilities. Even on the largest piece of land in the world, people score 220 points. Nothing happens in cricket and we just want to keep going. We have not changed.
KL Rahul (KXIP):
We were also looking to hit first. I’m just looking to get a couple of windows and push them. We all feel we deserve more than two points. We played cricket well and lost a couple of close matches. We have come here looking to win this game and be the best team we can be. Everyone knows that all games are essential victories for us from now on. It’s not a bad place to be, we have to bring our A game and do our best. Three changes: Mandeep, Prabsimran and Mujeeb are lost. Enter Gayle, Hooda, and Ashwin. We’ll see the batting order after how the first inning goes. Chris’s arrival gives us a lot of energy.
BREAKING: CHRIS GAYLE IS BACK FOR KXIP. This will be Gayle’s first match at IPL 2020.
SHAKE: Royal Challengers Bangalore Captain Virat Kohli wins the toss, opts to bat against Kings XI Punjab.
It’s TOSS time, folks.
Virat about to add another feather to his hat
