Delhi Capitals are having a good season so far as the team in the third spot after 9 games played. They will be looking to make use of the home advantage like their contemporaries. This is one area the franchise needs to work on, or else the chances of making the playoffs will be done with. They do have some good young players, but it is the bowling department that has shone till now. The objective will have to be for the next six games to at least win three in order to make the playoffs.
Meanwhile, Kings XI Punjab are just one position behind in the fourth spot but are level on points. This team has one of the best opening partnerships in KL Rahul and Chris Gayle. The dup have been thumping the ball out of the park regularly, and are unlikely to be stopped in their track. Skipper Ravi Ashwin too has been in great form, and he will be fired up to prove his worth to the both this franchise as well Indian national cricket team, as the ICC World Cup 2019 is just around the corner.

Pitch Report:
This pitch has always been one of the slower ones in India, and with the ground rather small, runs can be scored in both innings at this stadium.
