Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans Live Score, IPL 2026: Shubman Gill during the toss
“It's much better (on his neck issue), it's something similar (to what happened in the Test against South Africa). We were going to bat first anyway, if the weather stays this way, there will be no dew in the second innings. It's all about assessing the conditions, we have good opening partnerships (with Sai Sudharsan) and hopefully, we will put runs on the board. It's all about clicking in one game, we lost the last game by a small margin. Hopefully, we will sort out our batting. KK (Kumar Kushagra) sits out for me, rest is unchanged.”
Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans Live Score, IPL 2026: Axar Patel during the toss
“We will bowl first. We've chased well in the last two matches and this is a fresh wicket. It's been raining; there could be some moisture. Bowl first, have a look at the wicket, restrict them and chase down the score. We look at the match-ups, making it as difficult as possible for the batters and choose the best possible bowlers. Same XI for us.”
