"It is a new fresh journey and we are looking forward to do well. Conditions are not very different from Pakistan," said Pakistan captain Mohammad Hafeez.

"Dew factor, we would have looked to field as well. This is known as one of the good grounds to chase. This is a very loud ground, I don't think any voice goes outside the ground. I just wait for the fielder to look at me," said Indian captain MS Dhoni.

Right-arm fast bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar will make his debut for India in place of off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin, who has been dropped. Parwinder Awana and leg-spinner Piyush have also been left out of the squad for the match.

Asad Ali, Junaid Khan, Umar Amin and Zulfiqar Babar are the four Pakistani players who will sit out of the match.
