• Date – Thursday, April 28, 2022
• Time – 7:30 PM IST
• Venue – Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai

DC vs KKR Match Preview:

Delhi have a deadly duo of Prithvi Shaw and David Warner upfront. They have been incredible as an opening pair this season and DC will bank on these two to provide a solid start. With the middle-order not playing up to the mark, Rishabh Pant's role will be key for the Capitals to put on a show with the bat. 

The bowlers have been decent. Khaleel Ahmed has done well but the absence of a fit Anrich Nortje is hurting DC. Kuldeep Yadav picked up a four-wicket haul the last time DC played KKR this season; his four overs will be crucial. 

Kolkata's batting isn't doing well. They have some decent individual performances here and there but not collective. Shreyas Iyer will need to come with his A-game. Watch out for Rinku Singh. 

Andre Russell has been doing a perfect all-rounder's job, despite not bowling much this season. Russell in the slog overs with both bat as well as the ball can turn the game for KKR. Tim Southee's role will be crucial.
