Axar Patel and his men have been one of the best teams in the current edition. They are in the fourth spot with six wins and three losses. The win in this game might make them lead the charts. On the other hand, KKR sits at the seventh spot with just three wins to their name so far. A win in this game might propel them higher in the points table and intensify the race for the top four spots.

The Delhi Capitals must aim to carry their strong momentum and put on a solid performance in their forthcoming game against KKR. On the other hand, Ajinkya Rahane and Co. aim to mark their fourth victory of the tournament in this clash to keep their minimal hopes of making it to the playoffs alive.

Pitch Report

The captain who wins the toss will want to bowl first having seen what happened at this venue in the DC vs RCB game on Sunday. Over the years, Delhi has been a high scoring venue but with the tournament now entering its dying stages one can expect some wear and tear on the wicket. Spinners will play a key role and the best time to bat will be when the ball is new. Seamers might get good amount of reverse swing and a score between 150-165 should be chased down by the team batting second.
