Currently, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RR) and Delhi Capitals (MI) are locking horns with each other in the last league game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. RCB skipper, Virar Kohli won the toss and asked DC to bat first citing not many changes in the conditions in the latter half of the game. However, DC skipper, Rishabh Pant was comically upset after losing the toss and made a crying ’emoji’ on his face which left Kohli in splits.
Listening to Rishabh Pant’s reaction, the presenter present during the toss, Simon Doull also cracked a laugh. Aftter winning the toss, RIshabh Pant said, “Pitch looks dry, would’ve looked to bat. Looking to improve each and every day as a batting unit. Right now we’re going fine. Same team.”

On the other hand, after winning the toss, Virat Kohli said, “Going to have a bowl. The pitch does look a little bit dry. They’ve left enough grass in the game to sustain. Later in the second half the pitch settles down a little bit. It’s been hard work adjusting to all kinds of surfaces, and the teams that have done so have qualified. Some experiments come off, some don’t (Christian up the order). We come into this game feeling balanced about our lineup. Same team.”
