In Guwahati, Rajasthan Royals have lost the toss against David Warner's Delhi Capitals on Saturday. It was highly anticipated that both teams would make tons of changes to their Playing XIs; however, to everyone's surprise, both RR and DC have made several 'weird choices'.

It was touted that Rajasthan's star batter Jos Buttler will not be fit after hitting injured in the last game against Punjab Kings. Fortunately, the Englishman is well enough to play the upcoming fixture. But they have seated Devdutt Padikkal and KM Asif out.

Delhi, on the other hand, have excluded the dasher Prithvi Shaw, Sarfaraz Khan and Mitchell Marsh from their team. 

There was no brainer when Marsh was left out of the Playing team, as he had travelled back to Australia to attend a personal affair. However, the other two changes seem unneeded. However, Shaw still is part of the Impact Player substitutes and is expected to get an entry later in the game.

Meanwhile, after losing a close to Punjab, the Royals have picked the IPL veteran Sandeep Sharma, who was included as a replacement for an injured Prasidh Krishna, to make his debut for the team in pink. At the same time, the showstopper from the last fixture Dhruv Jorel has gotten an entry to the Playing XI.

In Guwahati, the home team will be batting first.
