So, fans thought that Sreesanth would like to see another heated encounter between these teams in the final.

Rohit said: “We are gonna bowl first. We know what to expect from the pitch, looks like a good track but not sure how it is gonna play, so better to have a score in front of us. We are up for the challenge. Even the seamers here have been quite effective here, so we got 4 seamers and 2 spinners. Every game is important and anyone can beat anyone on a particular day. We made one change. We have an offie coming in for the left-arm spinner.”

While Krunal Pandya said: “It's a good toss to lose. We would have batted first as well. Every game in IPL is important and there are quite a few changes. Naveen and Deepak Hooda in, Kyle Mayers and Avesh Khan out. There is one more change as well, can't quite remember it. Everyone is fit and raring to go.” However, LSG had a difficult start to the game as they scored 50 runs for three wickets in eight overs.
