Captains at toss

Hardik Pandya: Looks like a good track, let's see. It is a good toss to lose,; we were not sure what to do. We didn't mind either batting or bowling. We will put some runs and defend it. For us to be in this situation lot of results had to go our way, five days back we were not in this position and today we are, but being honest last 8-9 games have been like knockouts for us. Just one change - Ashwani comes in.

Shreyas Iyer: We are going to bowl first. I let the action talk more than words. I would just give them some sort of motivation and it is their job to go and execute. Jamieson and Vyshak come in. No you can't just take it as just another day, you have to keep updating your mind and game, you have to put your best foot forward.
