Rajasthan Royals won the toss and opted to bowl first in the 32nd match of the Indian Premier League 2025. Both teams have made no changes to their playing XIs from the previous match. Rajasthan Royals captain Sanju Samson mentioned that the wicket looks good for bowling and expected it to improve in the second half, giving them an advantage while chasing. Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel stated that his team is ready to set a big score, aiming to avoid the mistakes from their previous match.
Speaking at the toss Sanju Samson said, "We'll bowl first, looks like a good wicket. Gets better in the second half. The results and match conditions have been different. Generally the chasing team wins more often in the IPL. However, we are still early in the tournament so we want to bowl first and get an advantage. It is a competitive league, so we need to look past results sometimes. We decided as a team we need to put in a good performance whatever happens. Same team.

"There will be dew perhaps in the second innings, but now we are ready to bat first and put up a big score. Last game also we did well chasing, just a matter of a couple of overs here and there going in our favour. Need to look past the last game, but it is a learning experience. We discussed in the team meetings how we could have finished the game, we perhaps got too casual in the middle phase. Same team for us as well," Axar Patel said.
