Rohit Sharma: "It's an important game for us. Two losses in 3 games does not justify. I thought we played some just right cricket, but couldn't capitalize on the the most important moments. We would've chased first. It's a blessing in disguise to bat. But it looks like a just right wicket to bat. In all 3 games, we have now got 170-plus with the bat. So, If we bat to our doable, we will be able to get to a just right ranking and that's the concept. Let's publish a just right ranking and feature one thing for the bowlers. We have got two adjustments. Mitchell McClenaghan misses out and Jason Behrendorff makes his debut for us. Mayank Markande isn't smartly and Rahul Chahar makes his debut too. "
MS Dhoni: "It's 14 games in IPL, the more you win, the simpler it is. We do not look at the result, it's biproduct. We look at doing the fundamentals smartly. We will bowl first. It's a type of wickets, if you don't bowl in the precise areas you're going to be punished. There is a few lend a hand for the fast bowlers. I believe you need to let the opposition put the runs on board and we will be able to look to chase it down. With such a lot grass, it does not seem like a turner. Still each venue possess it's own demanding situations. So, we need to adapt temporarily and take the sport ahead. We have got Mohit instead of Santner."
