Four bowlers can bowl a maximum of two overs each, with one bowler allowed to bowl a maximum of three overs.
Toss Decision – Captain’s Comments & Reasoning
“We’re gonna bowl first. The pitch has been under covers, and it is best to bat second in a rain-impacted game. It is just the start of the season, and we are bound to make mistakes. It is a long tournament, and you can’t be out of it by going down in a few games and in the same way, you can’t win the tournament if you register a few victories,” Hardik Pandya said.
RR skipper Riyan Parag would have bowled first as well had he won the toss.
“We would have bowled first as well. It rained a lot, and there is moisture in the pitch. I am pleased with our wins, as they challenged us. We are hoping for a positive result today,” he said.
