Quinton comes in, Mohsin misses out: KL Rahul
KL Rahul said, "We will bat first. That plus a couple of games that have been played here. It is hard to complete forget how important this game for both the sides, but we have played enough cricket. We will focus one thing at a time, bat first and put up the runs on the board. Playing at home becomes a difference, but we play so much cricket that we know how the conditions will be. Quinton comes in, Mohsin misses out and there are a few other changes."
Sanvir comes in for Agarwal and Viyaskanth makes his debut: Pat Cummins
Similarly for Surisers Hydera bad, captain Pat Cummins also confirmed a few changes from their defeat against Mumbai Indians. The Aussie skipper revealed that Marco Jansen was replaced by young Sri Lankan spinner Vijayakanth Viyaskanth while top-order batter Mayank Agarwal was replaced by Sanvir Singh.
Cummins said, "Thank You (for the birthday wishes). My body feels 31. We would have batted as well. But we have won both ways here and hence not too upset. Hard to know (a good score) as it has been pretty high scoring. It is pretty tough and you have to keep winning till the end, we have not nailed it in the last couple of games and it is time to change that. We have a couple of changes - Sanvir comes in for Agarwal and Viyaskanth makes his debut and replaces Marco."
