Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli has won the toss and elected to bowl against Kings XI Punjab at the Holkar stadium in Indore.
"It's a no brainer, we will bowl first. It is a difficult ground to defend," Kohli said, while adding that RCB are fielding the same playing eleven.
On the other hand, mystery spinner Mujeeb ur Rahman is ruled out with injury for Punjab as Marcus Stoinis is called in to replace him.
