George Bailey comes in for an injured Justin Kemp in the CSK line-up.
Anil Kumble, captain of the Royal Challengers Bangalore, felt the pitch was a little bit drier than the previous two games. “It looks like a good wicket for runs. Last two games there was nice carry and bounce,” he said. A confident Kumble said that it was nice to go into a game with a win.
