Captains at toss

Mitchell Santner (New Zealand Captain): Looks like a great day for cricket. This will have pace and bounce. Looks a little dry. We have six changes in our playing XI. Guys getting an opportunity is nice. I guess it's part of what we have to do.

Shreyas Iyer (India Captain): We will bowl first. It's about chasing. It looks pretty dry. It's important to analyse, we are going to treat this game as a knockout. Ruturaj, Kishan, and Kuldeep are in.
