Captain's Quotes

Suryakumar Yadav (India Captain): "We were also looking to bowl first. The amount of dew which was there last night, taking that into consideration, we were thinking the same. Its a new challenge for our batting unit to put runs on the board and then defend later on.

Gives a lot of confidence. The way the boys turned up after giving 209 runs, I think they were really great. I feel we carry the same momentum and see how it goes. Its a different responsibility and a challenge but I am loving it. We go with the same XI."

Matthew Wade (Australia Captain): "We are gonna have a bowl first. Hopefully, the dew comes in tonight as well. Yeah, I think the wicket will play alright and should play better as the game progresses. A little bit of check on the numbers. You always do that every time. I think we didn't play badly last game, but it was India, who played a bit better cricket than us. You really cannot take that into consideration.

Yeah, almost everyone in the dressing room is ready and set to go. Two changes for us. Adam Zampa comes in for Jason Behrendorff, while Maxwell comes in for Aaron Hardie."
