“We would have liked to bowl first too. We have started well but we need to continue the momentum. We have experience and the youngsters to do that.

CSK vs RR Live: Here’s what MS Dhoni said at the toss

“We will bowl first. It maybe slightly on the slower side, different from the first game. Dew may play a role and it might get better in the second innings. (On his 200th game as CSK captain in the IPL) It feels good and also I feel the crowd has been fantastic. Also the fact that we started in the old stadium, it was very hot and humid. But now it feels like we’re playing in Switzerland. It’s good to play. We have seen cricket change – how T20 was played at that point of time till now, a lot has changed. The crowd has been fantastic. We have had injury concerns and players were unavailable, so we have done well. Mitchell Santner and Pretorius make way for Theekshana and Moeen.”

CSK vs RR Live Score: Suggestion from Gavaskar!

“I am hoping MS Dhoni promotes himself higher in the batting order. So that he gets to play more than two or three overs in the games. He can make that difference for CSK with his batting because he is capable of scoring big runs,” Gavaskar said Star Sports, Cricket Live Show.
