Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson has won the toss and elected to bowl first against Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League 2025. “We will bowl first. It is a good wicket to bowl first and as it gets better in the second innings. Conditions have been different. It is early stages of the tournament, and we want to stick to the conditions and win matches. We need to forget about past results, and now it is time to put our best foot forward,” Sanju Samson said.

Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel would have bowled first had he won the toss.

“We would have bowled first as well. Last match, we were in the game and could have won had we played well in another two overs. The dew factor will play a key role. It is important to bat well and put runs on the board. It is important to move from the previous game. We got a bit relaxed against Mumbai Indians. We will try to learn from our mistakes and make sure we don’t repeat them.
