Meanwhile, LSG persisted with Kyle Mayers in the playing 11, with Quinton De Kock in the dugout. KL Rahul spoke on Quinton De Kock and said that the keeper-batter will have to wait for a while before getting his chance in the playing 11.
“We would have bowled first as well. First game here. It’s important that we start well and put a good total on the board. We’ve executed well in most games. We have had clarity with bat on ball. All three skills have been good. We are quite settled. We’ll try to keep that left-hand, right-hand combination going. Quinny still misses out. He’ll just have to wait for some more time. I have enjoyed opening with Quinton,” said Rahul
