Unless any injury concerns, expect them to go unchanged for this fixture.

Key Players: 

Jos Buttler - The wicketkeeper batter from England is the Orange Cap holder with 218 runs in four games, he scored a magnificent hundred against Mumbai. Thus, he could very well continue his good form in the upcoming game as well.

Expect them to make no changes in their playing XI. 

Key Players: 

Abhinav Manohar - The Indian T20 League has unearthed another Indian talent. The right-hander has done well batting down the order with his ability to hit boundaries at will. Fans would want him to do well in the next game.
