Toss Royal Challengers Bangalore chose to bowl v Sunrisers Hyderabad

Virat Kohli had some luck with the coin finally as Royal Challengers Bangalore elected to bowl in their final league fixture at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium.

Sunrisers need to win to keep their hopes alive. Elsewhere, Kolkata Knight Riders will be rooting for Royal Challengers, for a Sunrisers loss will leave a simple equation for them on Sunday night: beat Mumbai Indians and qualify for the playoffs.

Williamson announced one change from the side that lost a Super Over thriller to Mumbai Indians on Thursday. They preferred Yusuf Pathan's experience over rookie Abhishek Sharma.

Wanting to win this for their "amazing home fans", Kohli announced three changes, one of which was forced. Marcus Stoinis is back with the Australian team, which meant Colin de Grandhomme returned. Shimron Hetmyer and Washington Sundar too were back in place of Heinrich Klaasen and Pawan Negi.
