Abu Dhabi: Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson won the toss and decided to bowl first against Delhi Capitals in their IPL 2021 match here Saturday.
Both teams have won their previous matches, Rajasthan Royals getting the better of Punjab Kings by two runs while Delhi Capitals defeated Sunrisers Hyderabad by eight wickets.

The squads:
Rajasthan Royals: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson (capt, wk), Lance Livingstone, David Miller, Mahipal Lomror, Riyan Parag, Rahul Tewatia, Kartik Tyagi, Chetan Sakariya, Mustafizur Rahman, Tabraiz Shamsi.
