Pat Cummins is one of the world’s premier fast bowlers, boasting an extraordinary record in international cricket with more than 500 wickets to his name – playing an instrumental role for Australia across T20Is, ODIs and Test matches alike.

Vijay Shankar and Abishek Porel have established partnerships which have enabled more runs to be scored; their bowlers too have shown improvement with Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Rashid Khan performing exceptionally for their team.

However, despite SRH’s impressive start to the season, Delhi remain unbeaten at home and have yet to lose a match at Arun Jaitley Stadium this term. They have excelled particularly well during powerplay sessions this term by scoring more runs than any other side.

Jake Fraser-McGurk had an indifferent start to the season and was dismissed for two-ball duck against LSG; however, his form has gradually improved since being supported by DC’s backroom staff ahead of their auction retention decision. Now looking to build partnerships with Rahul and Sameer Rizvi.

KL Rahul of India has been another stand-out performer for the Capitals this season. The opener scored 251 runs for DC with six fours and three sixes in his innings – and will play a pivotal role again when DC take on Sunrisers Hyderabad later.

With Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Tristan Stubbs and Abishek Porel all contributing, the Capitals hope to keep their momentum alive at home. However, England batsman Harry Brook has unfortunately been forced out due to an injured leg.

Karun Nair or Abishek Porel could replace Faf du Plessis as opening batsmen if he is unavailable, while Donovan Ferreira could join as an extra batsman in case an additional batsman is required in their team.
