Jaipur, May 1 -- Rajasthan Royals made two changes for their high-voltage IPL 2025 clash against Mumbai Indians here on Thursday, with Wanindu Hasaranga ruled out due to a niggle and Sandeep Sharma sidelined after fracturing his finger.

Kumar Kartikeya and Akash Madhwal were drafted into the XI as replacements.

Winning the toss at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, RR skipper Riyan Parag opted to bowl first, expecting the conditions to favour the chasing side later in the evening.

"We'll bowl first. We might see some dew later. Usually the wicket settles down a little at night. Want to exploit that," said Parag. He reiterated the team's focus on simplicity and consistency, adding, "If we play to our potential, we know how good we can be."
