Royal Challengers Bengaluru captain Rajat Patidar has won the toss and has elected to bowl first against Kolkata Knight Riders in Raipur.
"We will bowl first. I think it's a similar wicket we played in the last match. It will behave in a similar way. We will try to keep them under pressure. I think the wickets are pretty much same. There will be variable bounce. That was a good game for us, everyone has a lot of confidence. Every game is important, we are focussing more on playing good cricket. Venky comes in for Shepherd," Patidar said after winning the toss.
KKR Skipper Ajinkya Rahane said, "Last four games have been good for us. For us it's taking one game at a time. It's about respecting the opponents, and winning those small moments. This format is all about that, winning those small moments is important. Varun is out, Saurabh comes in for him."
