Punjab Kings captain KL Rahul has won the toss and elected to bowl against Rajasthan Royals in the IPL match in Dubai on Tuesday.

Punjab have left out veteran opener Chris Gayle on his 42nd birthday as South African Aiden Markram gets his maiden IPL call-up. Nicholas Pooran, Adil Rashid and Fabian Allen are the other three overseas players.

Evin Lewis, Liam Livingstone, Chris Morris and Mustafizur Rahman are the four overseas players for Royals.

Both Royals and Punjab will be looking to start off with a victory as they aim to bounce after their below-par showing in the first leg of IPL.

Royals are sixth with six points from seven games, while Punjab are one place below with the same number of points from eight games.
