"We are going to have a chase. It has been the same throughout the season. It's been a bit slower. We haven't played our best cricket. It feels like most of the time we haven't played to our full potential. We have made changes to see if we can turn it around. Maxwell is sitting out, Siraj is sitting out. Ferguson is coming in," RCB skipper said.

Hyderabad skipper Pat Cummins said there is no change in the team.

"The way we have gone about it, have been a few great wins. Can't win every game in T20 cricket. We go in with the same team like the last game. You never know here at the Chinnaswamy, (sometimes) 240 is par," Cummins said.
