Bumrah is in the starting XI, and Rohit has to wait for his turn to bat as an impact player. Rohit missed the previous match due to some fitness concerns. For Bumrah, it is his first match after a long injury spell. Last time he played against Australia in the prestigious Border Gavaskar Trophy. Due to injury, he was out from the Champions Trophy as well. There were multiple hints before that match that the Indian pacer was going to mark his presence against Royal Challengers Bengaluru; he looked good during the net sessions. On the other hand, Rohit Sharma needs to get some runs to solidify the base of the innings and justify his legacy.
Pandya, after the toss, said that he was expecting the dew factor to play a crucial part in the game, which could allow the batters to run fluently.

Ryan Rickelton (WK), Will Jacks, Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma (In for Raj Angad Bawa), Hardik Pandya (C), Naman Dhir, Mitchell Santner, Deepak Chahar, Trent Boult, Jasprit Bumrah (In for Ashwani Kumar), Vignesh Puthur.
