Sam Curran won the toss and elected to bowl first against Chennai Super Kings in the 2024 Indian Premier League. He said that the pitch looks good and it is a fresh track. The team is confident after the last game and wants to beat Chennai in Chennai. He wants the players to give their best and enjoy the competition. The conditions there are tough though.
Ruturaj Gaikwad too would have bowled first. It is a different wicket from what GSG has seen there. The team will have to get extra runs to defend the total because of the dew factor. Tushar Deshpande is unwell, while Matheesha Pathirana has a niggle. Shardul Thakur plays. Richard Gleeson will make his debut.
