Some disturbance and we've a delay. Not sure what happened though

Khaleel Ahmed to Jaiswal, no run, on a good length and just outside off, driven crisply and on the rise, but straight to the fielder at cover-point

Jaiswal and Buttler are at the crease. Jaiswal is on strike. Khaleel Ahmed will open the attack

The players are out in the middle. Massive firepower at the top for RR with Jaiswal and Buttler - Pant got a signed DC shirt as he plays his 100th IPL game.

Sanju Samson - We would have bowled first, dew could come in the second innings. Both pitches have an even covering of grass, but the last match was an afternoon game. All the 10 teams are geared up and prepared well, we just need to follow the process and not think too much, then we will be fine. Same team for us.

Rishabh Pant- We'll bowl first. The wicket looks fine and we want to use it, there might be some dew in the 2nd innings. Feels good to play 100 matches for the same franchise, but every game is important for me. Most of the concerns are regarding injury, but these are things you can't control. Two changes for us - Ishant hasn't recovered, Shai Hope has a back spasm. Anrich Nortje and Mukesh Kumar come in.

Delhi Capitals have won the toss and have opted to field

Kuldeep Yadav - Nothing like that (on suddenly becoming a star player), I would love to play all three formats though. I don't think a lot, I've always been very relaxed, I've matured with age (now 29), there are plenty of good people around me and that helps me. It's a team game, you need to perform together. Ishant's injury did cost us (in the last game), we couldn't get our combination right, but everyone is fit now and we're raring to go. It's important to have a collective effort, at times we need to lift individual performances - with the bat, someone who has got a start has to go on, same with the bowlers as well.

Nandre Burger - It is always good to start the tournament with a win, especially at home. The crowd has been great and the mood in the team is really good. Major part is field placings, the ball is hit to different parts here (in India), so you need to adjust more tactically rather than technically. It's pretty chilled, everyone knows what they're expected to do, it's a great atmosphere (in the team)

It's a fresh surface tonight. 67m square boundaries on both sides and a 76m straight boundary. We're playing on pitch number 5 today, it is absolutely rock hard, but there are some cracks which move as you press. It means that the bounce could be low with the new ball, it means the tactics could be similar to that of the last game. It wouldn't be surprising that the Royals couldbe wanting to bat first againtoday, reckon Simon Katich and Samuel Badree, in their pitch report

18:15 Local Time, 12:45 GMT, 18:15 IST: Delhi Capitals welcomed back Rishabh Pant to their set-up in their first match of the season against Punjab Kings, but nothing else went right for them on Millanpur as they crashed to an easy defeat. They were already without Anrich Nortje, a batting failure forced them to ditch Mukesh Kumar, who was their expected impact substitute. To add to their woes, Ishant Sharma limped out early into his spell and the absence of quality bowlers clearly told. But they have had s decent break and should be raring to go against the high flying Rajasthan Royals. Sanju Samson's team played almost the perfect game to beat Lucknow Super Giants in their first game and have emerged as the early contenders to beat. The franchise has looked well settled and have plenty of options amongst the bench - On paper, they look exceptionally strong and will back themselves to make it two wins at home.
