Captain Rishabh Pant's half-century against Chennai Super Kings has boosted the morale of Delhi Capitals. The half-century inning not only brought Pant back into form but also gave Delhi its first win in IPL-17. Delhi will look to maintain this winning streak on its home ground. Whereas Kolkata Knight Riders' record is 100% with two wins in two matches. Shreyas Iyer's team will also be eyeing its third consecutive win.
Expecting a good start from Warner-Shaw
Apart from Pant's inning of 51 runs in the 20-run win against Chennai, the partnership of 93 runs for the first wicket between David Warner (52) and Prithvi Shaw (43) was important. Delhi needs a better start from Warner-Shaw against Kolkata. His areas of concern are Mitchell Marsh's poor form and fast bowler Anrich Nortje's lack of form. Khalil Ahmed also bowled well against Chennai.
Russell, Venkatesh becomes the strength of Kolkata
Kolkata's confidence has increased with the win over RCB. For this, Andre Russell, Venkatesh Iyer, and Phil Salt have to be in tremendous form. Delhi will have to be cautious of these three only. Captain Shreyas also scored an unbeaten 39 runs against RCB. He has a finisher like Rinku Singh. The bowling of debutant Harshit Rana has provided extra strength to Kolkata.
Let us know what the possible playing 11 of both teams will be like...
Delhi Capitals: Prithvi Shaw, David Warner, Rishabh Pant (captain and wicketkeeper), Mitchell Marsh, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Axar Patel, Abhishek Porel, Anrich Nortje, Ishant Sharma, Mukesh Kumar, Khaleel Ahmed.
Kolkata Knight Riders: Phil Salt (wk), Sunil Narine, Venkatesh Iyer, Shreyas Iyer (captain), Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, Ramandeep Singh, Mitchell Starc, Harshit Rana, Varun Chakravarthy, Vaibhav Arora.
