Prithvi Shaw is down for a chat. He says everything is fine right now apart from Ponting who is in the hotel room but he will coordinate from there and they will rather focus on the game. Adds that he is the boss of the team but they have enough seniors here and it is a pleasure working under them.
Sanju Samson, the skipper of Rajasthan, says that he does not mind batting, toss is something that is not in his control, and it is going out of his control. Mentions that they have experience in doing both first and they need to be prepared. States that they have done well and will want to carry the momentum and it's important to focus on the current game. Informs that they are playing with the same team.
Rishabh Pant, the skipper of Delhi, says that they will bowl first as these conditions will help fast bowlers. Adds that he just tells the boys not to focus on the outside world. Tells that they try to improve and get the results and informs they are playing the same team. Mentions anything near 150-160 is good.
Rajasthan Royals (Unchanged Playing XI) - Jos Buttler, Devdutt Padikkal, Sanju Samson (C/WK), Shimron Hetmyer, Riyan Parag, Karun Nair, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Obed McCoy, Prasidh Krishna, Yuzvendra Chahal.
Delhi Capitals (Unchanged Playing XI) - Prithvi Shaw, David Warner, Rishabh Pant (C/WK), Rovman Powell, Sarfaraz Khan, Lalit Yadav, Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, Kuldeep Yadav, Mustafizur Rahman, Khaleel Ahmed.
TOSS - Delhi have won the toss and they have elected to BOWL first.
PITCH REPORT - Graeme Swann is down near the pitch. He says it's an absolute belter, its rock hard. Adds that there is a bit of turn in this wicket, still a very good batting wicket and we can expect another high score today.
Delhi have been quite inconsistent so far in the tournament. However, their last win could be a huge morale booster but the question is can they build on this against Rajasthan who are a strong side? Rajasthan have performed quite consistently, their bowling attack is a real good one and we believe the battle between them and the Delhi batters could well decide the game. Which team will carry their momentum forward? We will find out. Stay tuned for the toss and other updates.
The Indian T20 League continues to excite us as we now head into game 34 and it is a clash between Rajasthan and Delhi. Just the two points separate the two but the latter are three places below the former. Both head into this game after a win. Delhi, after a convincing win whereas, Rajasthan had to fight hard in their victory. The two will want to continue the winning streak. A win for Delhi can see them move into the top 4 and a win for Rajasthan can take them to first place. Still, early days but the view from the top is always a good one. Hello and welcome to the coverage.
