We were going to bat first as well. If the home captain does not know to what to choose, I thought might as well bowl and see what happens.

We would like to bat first. It's a bit hard to read this pitch. Let's bat a few overs and figure out later. The standard of cricket we are playing is really good. We were expecting something like this from Jaiswal with the prep he had been putting in. Zampa comes in place of Holder.

Rajasthan Royals have won the toss and have opted to bat.
