Right now we’re going fine. Same team.” Batting first, Delhi Capitals managed to post a competitive total of 164/5 in their quota of 20 overs. On the other hand, after winning the toss, Virat Kohli said, “Going to have a bowl. The pitch does look a little bit dry. They’ve left enough grass in the game to sustain.
Later in the second half, the pitch settles down a little bit. It’s been hard work adjusting to all kinds of surfaces, and the teams that have done so have qualified. Some experiments come off, some don’t (Christian up the order). We come into this game feeling balanced about our lineup. Same team.”
