Today's DC vs SRH toss result

Delhi Capitals have won the toss and have decided to bowl first. Rishabh Pant said:

“[The] wicket looks pretty good. We could like to chase because we are playing [better] as a batting unit. Maybe, there will be dew.”

DC have made two changes. Instead of Sumit Kumar, Lalit Yadav comes in. Also, Ishant Sharma has a back spasm, so Anrich Nortje comes in. Pat Cummins said that SRH are going in with the same batting line-up and will have a look at the bowling a little later on.
