DC vs GT Team Previews
Delhi Capitals
Delhi only have two wins to show for their last five matches. They lost to the Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders before beating the Titans and Lucknow Super Giants, but then slipped to defeat against the Sunrisers Hyderabad. Let's see if they can get back on track here.
Rishabh Pant and Tristan Stubbs have been Delih's top run-scorers this IPL season with 254 and 199, respectively. Pant and Stubbs have been striking at 150-plus per 100 balls, but both struggled to really get going in their recent innings against SRH. The Capitals captain and South African recruit will want to better this time.
Bowling-wise, the Capitals have relied heavily on Khaleel Ahmed and Kuldeep Yadav. They have taken 10 wickets each this season. Ahmed is one of the best left-arm seamers in the tournament. Yadav is one of the most prolific left-arm wrist-spinners in world cricket. They have been outstanding in combination.

Gujarat Titans
The Titans, like the Capitals, have lost three of their last five matches. But they have won two of their last three, so there are signs of improvement for the 2022 Indian Premier League champions as they continue to pursue a second title in their third year.
Handed the captaincy and evidently empowered by the promotion, Shubman Gill has risen to the fore of Gujarat's run-scoring chart this season. He has hit 298 runs in eight innings at an average of 43. Sai Sudharsan has afforded his skipper solid support with 269 runs in eight innings.
In the starting XI or as an impact substitute, Mohit Sharma has been the Titans' best bowler this IPL season with 10 wickets in seven innings. Spin-wise, Rashid Khan has starred for Gujarat again with eight wickets. He has also held some really good catches and contributed with the bat.
