Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans (DC vs GT): It is going to be a reverse fixture between both sides, but this time, it is going to be at Delhi Capital’s home, and Gujarat Titans will look to take revenge for their loss against Delhi side.
Team Preview of Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans
Delhi Capitals once again suffered a heavy defeat in their last match against Sunrisers Hyderabad, who again scored 266. This made it three times that they broke the record for the highest target before the start of the season. It has been the season where batters enjoyed the pitch that does not have any movement for Spinners or Pacers, which makes the IPL more boring now because if you are a true cricket fan, then you will find these kinds of matches as there are not competition between bat and bowl which making many legend cricketer disappointment.
The Delhi side needs to be consistent with their bowling performance because this is the second time they scored 250+ against them. First, it was KKR who scored 272/7, and then it was SRH in the last match, as they scored 266/7 at their first home match. They even conceded 125 runs in just 6 overs, which is the highest run scored. The only good thing about the last match for Delhi was their batter, Jake Fraser-McGurk form, who scored 65 runs in just 18 balls.
Gujarat Titans won their last match by a very close margin. Even when they had a low total to chase down, it took them 19.1 balls to chase the total, resulting in a loss of 7 wickets. This is not going to be considered a great win because their middle order is still not performing well, but their bowling unit is doing a fine job. Except for Warrier, all the bowlers bowled well against the Punjab side. The player of the match was Sai Kishore, who took four wickets to get his best IPL bowling figure. He will be important for the Gujarat side in the upcoming matches because he can also bat.
Gujarat team will look to take revenge on the last match, in which they lost to Delhi Capitals on their home ground. So now they will look to defeat them at Delhi’s home ground. The first match at Arun Jaitley Stadium was not as good as Delhi wanted; they lost to SRH by a heavy margin.

Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, has had an amazing pitch for batters in the past season. This is going to be the first match of the season, which will certainly be great for the batters, but after some time, it might be great for the spinners.
You can expect a run-fest tonight. This pitch looks completely different to what was served up last year. This is a pitch that’ll suit the Delhi Capitals pacers. It has got a lot of grass, it’s really hard, there’s plenty of runs on offer and there will be a bit of carry as well. So, both batters and bowlers will like this. You’re going to get hit with the small dimensions, but you’ll have to stick to your strengths as a bowler.

Important players for the Delhi Capitals in the match against Gujarat Titan
1. Tristan Stubbs will be important for the Delhi side in the next match against the Gujarat side because he took two crucial wickets for them in the last head-to-head match.
2- Jake Fraser-McGurk has been one of the best batters for the Delhi side, scoring in almost every match with a strike rate of more than 200+ in every match. He scored 65 runs in just 18 balls against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, which gave some hope for the Delhi side to chase the huge total of 266
3. Kuldeep Yadav was the only bowler in the last match who was able to stop the Sunrisers from restricting them to 266 because if he had not taken the wickets of Head, Abhishek, and Markram, then they would have scored around 290-300 runs. He took four wickets against the SRH side.
Important players for the Gujarat Titans in the match against Delhi Capital
1. Rashid Khan has been amazing with his economical bowling this season, but taking wickets has been hard for him as opposition teams are not taking much risk on his bowling.
2. Shubman Gill is slowly coming into his stride but is still far from what he delivered last season, which is one reason GT is struggling.
3. Sai Sudharsan once again scored 30+ but failed to score a half-century, which has been his season as he scored 6+ 30 runs but failed to score even a single half-century. That is not the performance GT asks from him.
