In the toss, Rajasthan Royals won the toss and elected to bowl first.

“We’ve opted to bowl first, considering the dew factor later in the evening. It’s all about the right mindset tonight, how we approach this challenge. It’s fantastic to be back in this incredible stadium, the atmosphere is electric.
Cricket is a game of ups and downs. We’ve had our share of setbacks, but the key is to bounce back with character, and that’s what we’re determined to do tonight. Injuries have been a challenge this IPL, but we’ve been fortunate. Tonight, Shimron Hetmyer returns to the side, and otherwise, the team remains unchanged.”

Sanju Samson, RR Skipper

“Winning the toss would’ve been ideal to set a total with the dew coming in. We saw some swing and seam for the bowlers yesterday, especially early on. This pitch seems a touch drier, perhaps because of the artificial surface on top. Our approach remains the same – ‘Mindsight.’ Back your skills, play your game.
The last match against Chennai was a nail-biter, but sometimes, less is more. You don’t need a superhero effort in the playoffs. Some might think longer meetings are key at this stage, but it’s all about showing the boys I completely trust them.We’re sticking with the same playing XI.”
