Toss Decision – Captain’s Comments & Reasoning

"We will bowl first. The wicket looks good, and it will get better in the second innings. Hardik is not well, and I am leading the side. Rohit Sharma returns to the team. MI are not known to be in such positions, but it is important to play matches. We will have to put our best foot forward," he said.

LSG skipper Rishabh Pant would have bowled first as well. 

"We wanted to bowl first as well. The wicket is good for chasing. We have reflected on our shortcomings during the break. We are having a tough season, and there is no point in running from that. It is time to bring back happiness. Our owner is passionate, and we have let down the trust," he said.
