“We just want to play our best and make them enjoy their time. It looks hard and it should get better once the sun goes down. This game means a lot for the team; we want to give our best shot. We’ve had a tough season and want to finish on a high. Jassi is resting and Deepak is in,” concluded Pandya.
Meanwhile RR captain Riyan Parag said, “We would have bowled first as well. We know this could be the last game of the tournament and we want to give it our best shot. Hopefully, we’ll maximise our chances and give our best shot. If we win, we qualify and won’t need any help from the others. Three changes – Nandre comes in, so does Jadeja and me”
