KKR VS DC Match Preview:

Kolkata Knight Riders(KKR) batsmen had a nightmare of a game in the last against RCB. None of the batsmen could survive apart from Eoin Morgan in tricky conditions. Nitish Rana has had an off tournament might make way for Rinku Singh in this match. If Andre Russell is fit to play, Tom Banton might get rested. 

The bowlers could do nothing to defend a low score in the previous match. Shivam Mavi has done well in the season and might come back into the playing XI. Kuldeep Yadav hasn't been used well, he could be the game-changer KKR needs in the team. 

Delhi Capitals(DC) batsmen also looked without intent in the last game against KXIP. However, Shikhar Dhawan's century took the team to a respectable total. Prithvi Shaw has consistently failed to score runs and might make way for Ajinkya Rahane in the opening slot. Rishab Pant needs to get back in touch as the tournament enters the business end. 

Anrich Nortje was rested and Daniel Sams was given a chance. He had a decent outing with the ball. It will be interesting to see if DC gives another opportunity to Sams in this match or bring back in-form Nortje. 

Kolkata Knight Riders would surely be hurting after their last game and will try to come back hard at Delhi Capitals who are looking to confirm their seat in the playoffs.
