Senior spinner R Ashwin has not got a place in India's playing XI, apart from him, in-form Deepak Hooda has also not been able to make a place in the playing XI. After winning the toss, Rohit Sharma said, "Honestly, I don't think the toss is that important, we are just here to play good cricket. We've played here in the IPL, so hopefully the pitch will be good. It was a tough call we had to take between playing Dinesh and Rishabh, Rishabh sadly misses out. And Avesh makes it as the third seamer. This is an important game for us, but as cricketers we don't want to think about the opposition, we just want to correct whatever mistakes we are doing. We are bowling first."
