Delhi Capitals will face Kolkata Knight Riders in Sharjah Cricket Stadium Wednesday, 13 October in Qualifier 2 IPL 2021. Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders both come into this match to reach the final where they will take on Chennai Super Kings.
While Delhi Capitals lost to the three-time champions in the first playoff match, KKR entered the match after defeating Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Eliminator and are a team that is riding a wave of momentum.
For KKR, Sunil Narine was the difference in the eliminator against RCB and he will once again hold the key on the pitch in Sharjah. Shakib Al Hasan is a great addition to the team and should be in the playing XI.
Batting for Delhi hasn’t come together as a unit and different players stand apart but they should now perform as a unit in this match against Kolkata Knight Riders. On the other hand, the bowlers have been strong as a unit and after an indifferent match against Chennai Super Kings, Avesh Khan would be looking to make a comeback. Axar Patel and R Ashwin have been very strong in the middle overs.
Ahead of this important match, let’s take a look at the pitch and weather report of the KKR vs DC match.
Pitch Report:
The pitch has been re-layed in Sharjah and hence, it has changed its nature as compared to last year. The spinners and the slow bowlers have got a lot of help from the surface and the batsmen have to work hard for their runs. If dew comes into play, the toss will play an important role in the game and it can determine the captains’ decision on the toss.
