“The wicket is looking a bit dry, hopefully, it will be better with dew. There is no change in 16. We’ll see how the conditions play out and adjust from there. Our fielding needs improvement. We are improving game by game. It’s about people finding options and trusting them,” said SRH skipper Aiden Markram at the toss.

MI skipper Rohit Sharma said: “We have to play good cricket. We understand the challenges of total posting. We have to assess the circumstances. Duane missed out and was replaced by Jason Behrendorff. Jason should have always played, but he was not well in the last game. He’s fine to go now.”
