Faisalabad win toss, bat first on lively pitch

MOHALI: Faisalabad Wolves have won the toss and will be batting first in their first match of the Champions League Twenty20 qualifiers against Otago Volts at Punjab Cricket Association Stadium, Mohali.

In the post toss interview Misbah said that even though the wicket might have some life early on but their strength is their bowling and so they will try and put a total on the board which could be defendable for the bowler.

Otaga skipper, Brendon McCullum said that he would have bowled anyway and hoped to take advantage of the early movement.
