Preview :

Delhi Capitals will take on against Kolkata Knight Riders for the second time in the forty-first match of this season of the Tata IPL.

Delhi suffered a 15-run loss against Rajasthan Royals, a game marred by a no ball controversy over a high full toss that resulted in a one match ban for assistant coach Pravin Amre. Head coach Ricky Ponting watched the tight finish in quarantine and felt helpless. Now he is back with the team and is confident of finding momentum which will allow his players to play to their potential.

Delhi Capitals are currently seventh on the points table with three wins in seven outings. KKR are placed eighth having lost their last four games. With the Delhi batting line-up comprising David Warner, Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant and Powell, KKR's varied attack has to be on guard to stop the rampage. Warner, after striking three back to back fifties, faltered against the Royals and would need itching to play another impactful knock. Ditto for Shaw, who needs to convert his starts into big scores.

On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders played their last game against Gujarat Titans where they lost the game by 8 runs. Andre Russell managed to score 48 runs and also picked up 4 wickets for Kolkata Knight Riders in that game.

These two teams have6 played 30 matches against each other in the history of IPL so far where Delhi Capitals managed to win 14 matches while Kolkata Knight Riders won the remaining games.
