NEW DELHI: Delhi Capitals captain David Warner won the toss and opted to bowl against Punjab Kings in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Saturday.
Sikandar Raza replaced Bhanuka Rajapakasa in the Punjab line-up, while Delhi also made one change, bringing in Mukesh Kumar in place of Ripal Patel.
"We will have a bowl. It is going to be a slow, low surface, it is not going to change much. There might be some dew later on. The last game was not a good one but winning 4 out of 5 was quite good. The boys have come out with a lot of freedom and a clear mind. The crowd has come out and supported us. We have got the same 16, Ripal goes out and another pacer comes in," Warner said after winning the toss.
"We would have bowled too but we are batting first, so I'm looking forward to it. I guess, we're adapting to the conditions nicely, we're playing some good cricket and we're not finishing well sometimes. It is beautiful that they are putting up good performances. They are young and maturing and those are great signs. We have got one change – Raza comes back in and Rajapaksa misses out," Punjab skipper Shikhar Dhawan said at the toss.
