"The light roller is doing duty on the pitch while Bumrah and Shami mark out their run-ups. Keeping an eye on Siraj, who is bowling full tilt on the side pitch. Smith and Marnus even read pitches together. Ashwin and Siraj hug. I think it was a last minute call and now Siraj is marking his run-up."
Very important to stay focused and do the job. The atmosphere is great, the family is always going to be there. We are always going to get support when we play at home. But what is important is to do a job for India and stay in the moment, says Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah
"Pitch number five. Same wicket that was used for India vs Pakistan. It's different from that one because it's been left open for quite a long time. It looks very dry, not much rolling. Looks patchy especially in the areas where spinners will land the ball. I expect it to turn a bit. Dew is uncontrollable. If there's no dew, you could be in trouble. Batting first, getting runs on the board is premium. But India won't be too bothered either way,” says Ravi Shastri
It's not just cricket today at the Narendra Modi Stadium. There are plenty of events planned for the finale.
