IND Vs AUS: Captain's Thought

Rohit Sharma (India Captain): "We would have fielded first as well. Looks a little sticky at this point. But we wanted to chase having fielded first in a couple of games.It looks good. Hopefully, it doesn't change too much. The overcast conditions also matter when you play in this part of the world. But we have adapted really well and it's the same today."

Mitchell Marsh (Australia Captain):"We will bowl first. Its a belter. Its a quarter-final. We are looking forward to it, a big challenge against India. We have found ourselves in this situation many times in this World Cup with our backs against the wall but we understand the pressure situation."
