Toss: Rajasthan have won the toss and elected to bat

Dravid: ‘We have to play as a unit. We are that kind of a team. We need to work as a team and that’s what we’re aiming to do. We’re struggling away from home but we’re confident. Last time, they won off the last ball so we’re feeling good. The pitch does slow up a bit, but it looks better than some of the wickets I’ve seen here in the past. But it’s good to put runs on the board. It’s a great challenge to play against Chennai, they are a champion side. Cooper and Rahul Shukla are in. Tait and Sreesanth are out.’

Dhoni: ‘We spoke about this in the last presentation ceremony, after the 4th season we have struggled at home for consistency. The pitch has been relaid and we haven’t been able to play freely. More than the batting slot, it’s the number of overs that determines the batting order for us. We were looking to bat first. It looks like a different surface but we’re hoping that it stays the same for the whole game. Albie Morkel is injured, Jason Holder is in.’

Teams:
Chennai (Playing XI): Murali Vijay, Michael Hussey, Suresh Raina, S Badrinath, MS Dhoni(w/c), Ravindra Jadeja, Dwayne Bravo, Jason Holder, Chris Morris, Ravichandran Ashwin, Mohit Mahipal Sharma

Rajasthan (Playing XI): Shane Watson, Ajinkya Rahane, Rahul Dravid(c), Brad Hodge, Stuart Binny, Kevon Cooper, Dishant Yagnik(w), James Faulkner, Ajit Chandila, Siddharth Trivedi, Rahul Shukla
