IPL 2024: LSG vs KKR, Match 54: Who said what at the toss?

Shreyas Iyer: We would have bowled as well. Defending that total with five bowlers in the last game gives us a lot of confidence. There’s a lot of self-belief in the team. We are going with the same team. Hopefully we continue with the same form. He has been optimistic from game one and just that he wasn’t able to execute. He (Venkatesh Iyer) got tremendous and charater and happy for the way he executed. It’s important to stay in the present.

KL Rahul: We will bowl first. I’m not a best reader of a wicket, we just like chasing. The good thing is we have been able to adapt really well and quickly to the conditions, there have been quite a few brilliant individual performances as well. There’s been a lot of talk about strike-rate, and T20 cricket has changed a lot in the last couple of years. He was injured in the last game, Yash Thakur comes in for Mayank Yadav.
