It's Eden Gardens today—the fans are still boiling with the memories of Jonny Bairstow and Shashank Singh easing a chase of 262 in Eden Gardens. Before that, the stadium with 66,000 people never witnessed that. Then it was Shreyas Iyer wearing the purple, clueless and defeated. And now, he is on the other side. If not remembering last year's highest ever chase, KKR has suffered a 95/10 against the Shreyas-led PBKS in Mullanpur. With the Mum-boys Ajinkya Rahane and Shreyas Iyer meeting together, the fans will hope for revenge. For KKR, it will be a desperate fight on home ground. For PBKS, establishing dominance and a plight to walk back into the top four slots. And for Shreyas Iyer? The defending champions captain will be facing the defending champions team on the field, which happened to be his home ground months ago. Meanwhile, Punjab Kings won the toss and decided to bat first. And finally, Punjab Kings have decided to play Azmatullah Omarzai, who comes in, and so does Glenn Maxwell. For KKR, Rovman Powell debuts in place of Moeen Ali, and Ramandeep Singh is on the sideline, letting in Chetan Sakaria. Here's what the captains said in the toss: Shreyas Iyer: We are batting first. Since we are playing on the same wicket they played on. Can see a few cracks, will get an idea on how its playing. It's always been great to play in front of this crowd. Another day to come here and embrace. We have been getting brilliant starts. We are talking about a few situations, need to play to our best ability and believe in ourselves. I want the bowlers to take wickets, it changes the momentum. The more wickets we take in the powerplay, gives a chance to the other bowlers. Maxwell and Omarzai come in. Ajinkya Rahane: It's all about playing good cricket, need to chase down whatever the target is. Our bowling has been bowling really well. They have improved a lot. The boys have disappointed with the bat, but need to be brave in this format. Our batting unit needs to do well in this game. We have been playing good cricket in patches. It's all about living in the moment and be positive. Powell comes in Moeen and Sakariya comes in for Ramandeep.
