It is perhaps due to the same reason that Dhoni confirmed a couple of changes to their Playing XI as all-rounder Sam Curran and pacer KM Asif have been included as like-for-like replacements for Dwayne Bravo and Deepak Chahar. Bravo and Chahar is main strength of CSK bowling line ups, so they wanted to give them off time.
“We would have liked to bowl first, because the wicket here will stay the same. We are one side who don’t make many changes. Sam [Curran] comes in for [Dwayne] Bravo and [KM] Asif comes in for Deepak [Chahar].
“We are playing back-to-back games, so it’s important to keep the players fresh. It’s better to rest them. The weather will keep getting better from now, and it will be the perfect weather during the World Cup,” Dhoni told Star Sports at the toss.
