The wicket looks dry, not sure how it will play, might get slower and slower, will look to put the runs on the board.

We have a couple of changes, Ish Sodhi and Krishnappa Gowtham are in, for Smith and Unadkat. It's all about giving our best - Ajinkya RahaneIt's an important game for us, we need to have a mindset of playing every game as a knock-out match, we are in a good mood as a team.
