“We would like to bat first. We like to stick to our strength, which is to defend. It feels really great to play RR’s 200th game, feels great to be playing for 10 years. Would love to see some pink here today, but it’s yellow and we know that the reason is,” said Samson.

Samson further revealed during the toss that RR would be making one change to their playing XI with Trent Boult missing the match due to a niggle, however, Adam Zampa came in to replace him.

Dhoni meanwhile revealed that CSK remained unchanged from their previous match. During the previous meeting between these two sides, Samson had did a similar gesture for Dhoni, where he was referring to the CSK skipper without taking his name and instead used the phrase ‘that guy’, which had won the hearts of both sets of fans.
