Toss Decision – Captain’s Comments & Reasoning

"We will bowl first. When you win, you feel good. We were fine when we were not winning. However, winning gives confidence. I don't think about the wicket. We will plan accordingly. We feel bad when the decision doesn't go in our favour, but it is important to leave it on the field. It is important to execute your plans," Axar Patel said.

RR skipper Riyan Parag was not sure about the wicket, so he was happy to lose the toss.
