Their play-off berth sealed, Delhi Capitals will aim for a big win against Rajasthan Royals to enhance their chances for a second-place finish when the two teams clash in their final IPL league match, here Saturday.

A big win on Saturday not only will boost Delhi's morale after the 80-run hammering at the hands of CSK but it could also propel the side to the second position in the eight-team standings.

Rajasthan, on the other hand, are mathematically still alive in the tournament with 11 points from 13 games. They need to win against Delhi and hope for favourable results from other remaining games to secure a play-off berth as the fourth team.

Toss Update:

With Rahane back as the skipper, Rajatshan have won the toss and they will be batting first. There are two changes in the side; Ish Sodhi and K Gowtham are in for Steve Smith and Jaidev Unadkat

“We will bat first. The wicket looks dry, not sure how it will play, might get slower and slower, will look to put the runs on the board. For me, the team comes first, I respect their decisions, it's a great challenge and it's important to play well and win,” said Rahane at the toss.

On the other hand, Delhi have also made 2 changes – Keemo Paul and Ishant Sharma are in as they replace Jagdeesha Suchith and Chris Morris.

“It'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. Our batsmen love to bat on good bouncy wickets, this been a slow wicket - we didn't expect it, but we can't blame the wickets for our poor show here,” said Iyer.
