“The toss doesn’t matter much for me. The way we play our cricket matters more than anything else. We need to improve our fielding, we have had a discussion on the same. We are playing with the same XI.”
Meanwhile RCB captain Smriti Mandhana said, “We would have loved to field first. Toss isn’t a big factor as there’s not much dew here at the Chinnaswamy.”
