After winning the toss, KKR captain Rana said, "We'll bat first. Looks like a good wicket, hopefully we'll post a good score and then restrict them. We're not thinking too much ahead, just have to take game-by-game. We have had injurioes in many games, but they're back now. We're playing an extra batter due to the impact rule, need to get those 10-15 extra runsm. Twi changes - Jason is back in place of David Wiese, Vaibhav Arora replaces Jagadeeshan."

Meanwhile, SRH skipper Markram said, "We would have batted first as well, we have tended to do well with a score on the board. We need to start playing good consistent cricket and tonight's an opportunity, looking forward to a positive outcome. Batting needs to improve, bowling has been outstanding, but we've underperformed with the bat. Couple of changes in our 16 with Kartik Tyagi back in the group. He was injured for a while and is raring to have a go."

KKR captain Rana wins toss, opts to bat vs SRH.
