What did both the captains say on the toss?

Akshar Patel: I have decided to bowl first. This is our first match on home ground, so I want to see how the pitch is playing. It looks a little dry and hard. In the last match we chased the target very well. Winning the match even after falling 4 wickets for 26 runs in the powerplay, gives a lot of confidence to the entire team. Now our top-order batsmen also know that if they fail, there are players below who can take over the responsibility. It is always beneficial to play at home, Delhi Capitals fans will encourage us.

Suryakumar Yadav: Hardik is not well, he was not fit for today’s match, so today I am captaining in his place. When you win the first match after 13-14 years, there is a lot of positivity in the team. We are very happy, but this ground is completely different from Wankhede. We have to play responsibly here.

The pitch is looking good, winning or losing the toss does not matter much. We wanted to bat first and he wanted to bowl, so we are happy to bat first. Here we have done well batting first and defending the score. There are many changes in the team. Deepak Chahar has come in place of Hardik. Corbin Bosch has been replaced by Boult, this is a strategic change and Mitch Santner has joined the team in place of Allah Ghazanfar.
