Captain View

Shreyas Iyer | KKR

We will bowl first. I am super excited. It is a great honour to don this jersey. The players who have been playing for this unit have been doing well. The track seems to be a belter and the dew will come in later and make it better.

We are going in with three overseas players – Billings, Narine and Russell. Three of us got caps today. Myself, Billings and Rahane.

Ravindra Jadeja | CSK

Big shoes to fill in. Happy and excited for the new role. We are going with four foreign players. Conway, Bravo, Milne and Santner are our foreign players.
