DEL vs CHE 11Wickets Fantasy Cricket Tips: Playing XI, Pitch Report & Injury Update – IPL 2020, Match 34

Match Details:

The 34th match of the Indian T20 League 2020 will be played between Delhi and Chennai at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium.

This game is scheduled to start at 07:30 PM IST (06:00 PM local time) (02:00 PM UTC). The game will be telecasted on the Star Sports Network (Available in English, Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Kannada, and Bengali). Also, live streaming will be available on Disney+ Hotstar VIP.

Preview:

Pitted against each other in the second match of the day on Saturday will be the team of veterans against a team led by a young captain. Led by Shreyas Iyer, Delhi have had a great run in this tournament so far, and are placed at the top of the points table with 6 wins out of 8 matches they have played. And, on the other hand, the MS Dhoni-led Chennai are pegged at the third last spot in the points table, after having managed to win only 3 matches out of the 8 they have played.

In their last outing against each other, Delhi got the better of Chennai, winning the match by a decent 44 runs. But, after that, Chennai have made some changes, which have somewhat helped them too. So, they would be looking to bounce back in this match and make things even in terms of the head to head equation with Delhi.

DEL vs CHE Match 34 Weather Report:

Pitch Report:

The pitch at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium has become even more of a nightmare for the bowlers to bowl on. At the start of the tournament, there was a time when the runs flowed in the first inning, but that could be controlled by the bowlers in the second inning. And, now, even that factor is slightly diminishing as chasing becomes progressively easier.

Average first innings score:

197 (Last five Indian T20 League matches at this venue)

Record of the chasing teams:

Won – 1, Lost – 4, Tie – 0 (Last five Indian T20 League matches at this venue)
