Shepherd, Madhwal, and Shreyas Gopal go out.”
Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson said, “We had a slightly different idea about the toss so it’s okay. You know the nature of the tournament, it’s a very long tournament, we had a five-day break, and we discussed our plans, it’s about focusing about the system and the process.
