Rohit Sharma said that Jofra Archer is in the team due to the absence of Jason Behrendorff and Arjun Tendulkar.

“We played against the same opposition last year as well. It is a nice track and I find it a bit dry. We wanted to bowl first, we want the score in front of us. It has been up and down, we have played some good cricket and there has been a lack of consistency. We had a good break and hopefully we can do well. We have two changes – Jofra and Arshad Khan are back in place of Behrendorff and Arjun Tendulkar,” said Rohit Sharma at the toss.
