Delhi: In the 23rd match of IPL 2021, Sunrisers Hyderabad skipper David Warner has won the toss against Chennai Super Kings and decided to bat first here at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday.

Pacer Sandeep Sharma and middle-order batsman Manish Pandey have returned to the SRH playing XI. On the other hand, after missing the last match, both Lungi Ngidi and Moeen Ali have been integrated into the CSK team.

MS Dhoni: We were looking to bowl first. Looks a bit tacky and the boys who practised yesterday said there was quite a bit of dew. Bowling with the wet ball is a challenge for us. Lungi and Moeen are back in place of Bravo and Tahir.

David Warner: We will bat first. It's a different surface from what was expected in Delhi. But it's not going to play very differently. It's about the experience for us. Sandeep and Pandey are back.
