Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bowl first

For the first time in ODI World Cup games between both teams, an Indian skipper has won the toss and elected to bowl first. In the past, the previous captains from both teams won the toss and chose to bat first. Meanwhile, Shubman Gill, who missed the first two games (Australia and Afghanistan) has made his comeback against the Green Brigade.

Ishan Kishan has made way for the right-hander. Apart from this, no change was made in the team that won against Afghanistan. On the other hand, Pakistan has fielded the same playing XI that chase down record total of 345 runs against Sri Lanka.

“It is a dream for us, and all of us are going to experience it is. It is not going to change much, dew will also be a factor so we want to chase. We want to keep striving for the best, and come out and play every day. We want to start well and play well, and do our best. It’s the most important factor, keeping yourself relaxed, keeping the atmosphere relaxed. Gill is back in place of Ishan Feel for Ishan. He has stepped up, but Gill has been a superb player for us,” Sharma said at the toss.
