After two wins in as many games, the Delhi Capitals are all set to host the 2022 champions, Gujarat Titans, in match 14 of Tata IPL 2026. This will be the second home of the season for the Capitals, who are heading into this game on the back of an away win over Lucknow Super Giants by 6 wickets, followed by a home win at the Kotla over the 5-time champions Mumbai Indians by 6 wickets. Meanwhile, the Titans have lost both their games so far. They played their opening game against last season’s finalists, Punjab Kings, in Mullanpur, losing by 3 wickets, and then headed home to the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, only to lose their first home game of the season to Rajasthan Royals by 6 runs. In this post, we have compiled free expert tips for the 14th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026), DC vs GT, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi.
Two teams that have had contrasting fortunes so far this season are all set to lock horns in the nation’s capital. Delhi Capitals may have lost their last two games to this particular opponent, but their recent form paints a completely different picture. The Capitals, who are rolling after being undefeated so far in the tournament, should start as the favorites in this contest playing at home. They are oozing confidence after taming the 5-time champions Mumbai Indians in their last game and should have their noses ahead in this contest. Expect the win probability meter to favor the hosts. Let’s continue with the post and find out the best cricket tips for the 14th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL 2026), DC vs GT, at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi.
GT: 37% win chance DC: 63% win chance
In the form of his life, DC's reliable no 4 Sameer Rizvi has scored 3 fifties on the trot in ths IPL now. After a match-winning effort in the last two games, expect Sameer to shine in this fixture as well.
Pathum Nissanka is a rare talent, and people are yet to recognize what he brings to the table. After a fabulous 44 off 30 deliveries in the game against MI, Pathum must be eager to score more in this game.
Fresh off a fifty in the last game against RR, the orange cap holder from the last season is seemingly back among runs and would be looking to continue with his form.
The veteran Englishman has got starts so far in both the games for GT. Expect Buttler to have a lasting impact in this game on a surface that always offers assistance to stroke makers at the Kotla.
Check out our prediction for the DC vs GT Indian Premier League 2026 match 14.
Delhi Capitals may have started IPL 2026 with two wins from two games, but their top‑order batting remains a concern. While the results have gone their way, the lack of consistent contributions from the frontline batters could become a stumbling block in tougher contests. Pathum Nissanka got going in the previous game with a quintessential 44 off 30 deliveries, but the likes of Nitish Rana and the senior pro KL Rahul haven’t delivered yet.
Their failure to convert starts into meaningful scores has left the middle order under pressure, forcing the Capitals to rely heavily on lower‑order resilience and bowling strength. For Delhi to sustain their winning momentum, the top three must step up and provide a solid platform.
With Nissanka showing signs of form, the onus now lies on Rana and Rahul to rediscover their touch and complement the middle order. If the Capitals can solve this batting puzzle, they will transform from a team scraping through victories and secure a hat trick of wins to go at the top of the points table.
The Titans have nothing in their batting order after the top 3 featuring B Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and the Englishman Jos Buttler. Their overreliance on the top 3 was on display in the last season as well, and every time one of the three bailed them out from tricky situations.
In this season, none of the top three have been able to help GT secure a win. Moreover, lack of role clarity for the likes of Shahrukh Khan and Washington Sundar in particular has been a worrying sign for the side. Shahrukh Khan has been playing IPl for quite some time now. He has featured in more than 50 games in IPL and only has 2 fifties to show on his resume. A batter who is batting generally at 5 or 6, these numbers are nothing but underwhelming.
Gujarat’s primary concern is how best to utilize Washington Sundar. Yes, he is a good batter, but only in the longest format of the game. He doesn’t have an attacking game, which is a must in modern-day T20s. Also, if he isn’t being used much as a bowler, then there’s no point of having him in the eleven. Washington was barely used for his primary prowess, i.e., bowling, in the last season, and in this season he has bowled only in the opening game against PBKS but not against RR. If he isn’t bowling, its better to have a pure batter in the eleven who can bat at no 5.
Anuj Rawat, Kumar Kushagra, and Nishant Sindhu are the three batting options waiting in the wings for GT, but the management seems to be subtle on Washington. If GT management doesn’t address the ‘Washington’ issue, they could well be staring at yet another defeat in the Tata IPL 2026. Let’s move ahead and check the cricket tips.

Here’s the pitch and weather report for the 14th match of the Indian Premier League 2026 between Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi.
We witnessed a sticky and tricky wicket in the previous game played here between the Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians. The strip would be different this time, which may yield runs. With Delhi’s pitch favoring spinners and dew likely to aid chasing, the toss winner is expected to bowl first. Early batting can be tricky, but conditions ease under lights.

The Delhi Capitals are flying high with two wins in as many games, whereas Gujarat Titans are yet to win a game after two straight losses. The Titans are looking clueless with their batting order and their batter’s approach. Capitals, meanwhile, are roaring game after game and must be looking for yet another impactful performance against a depleted Titans. Therefore, as per our prediction, the Delhi Capitals are expected to win the IPL 2026 Match 8, DC vs GT.
