In DC vs RR match at Delhi, Rajasthan Royals won the toss and opted to field. During the toss, Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson said, “(thinks before replying) We’ll bowl first, looks like a good wicket. Gets better in the second half. The results and match conditions have been different, but we are still early in the tournament so we want to bowl first and get an advantage. It is a competitive league, so we need to look past results sometimes. We decided as a team we need to put in a good performance, whatever happens. Same team”
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel said “Would have bowled as well. There will be dew perhaps in the second innings, but now we are ready to bat first and put up a big score. Last game also we did well chasing, just a matter of a couple of overs here and there going in our favour. Need to look past the last game, but it is a learning experience. We discussed in the team meetings how we could have finished the game, we perhaps got too casual in the middle phase. Same team for us as well”.
