Lucknow Super Giants captain K.L. Rahul said, \u201cWe will bat first. We want to start fresh, looks like a good wicket. I don't think dew is going to play a part. It has made a huge difference. You can bowl well, bat well, express yourselves, the big boundaries, the bowlers enjoy playing here. The batters are enjoying batting here. The three games we have played here have been packed. Arshad Khan comes in for Mayank Yadav.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Delhi Capitals captain Rishabh Pant said, \u201cWe would have batted first as well. A few of our players got injured, so need to find the right playing XI. We have two changes. Mukesh and Kuldeep are back. They were injured, looking forward to seeing them back on the field.\u201d<\/p>\r\n\r\n
