DC vs KKR Preview
- David Warner has been in outstanding form with the bat this tournament, and we expect him to be the Delhi Capitals’ leading run scorer in this match. Kuldeep Yadav has taken 13 wickets in the competition so far, and he is a strong contender for the top wicket taker for Delhi Capitals versus KKR.
- Shreyas Iyer has 248 runs in the 2022 IPL, and we believe he will be the highest run scorer in this match for KKR. Umesh Yadav has 11 wickets in eight games and is our pick to be KKR’s leading wicket-taker against the Delhi Capitals.
- Andre Russell has 22 sixes in the competition, and he is our pick for Player of the Match with the Most Sixes.
On Thursday evening at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders will face off in Match 41 of the 2022 Indian Premier League. So far this season, the Delhi Capitals have won three and lost four of their seven games. KKR has won three of their last eight games. The game will start at 19:30 a.m. local time.
So far this season, the Delhi Capitals have not shown the consistency of recent seasons, but they will fancy their chances against an out-of-form KKR side.
KKR’s last win came in Match 14 against Mumbai Indians, and they have lost four games in a row since then. They do, however, have world-class players and a turn of fortune is not far away.

Delhi Capitals Team News & Probable Playing XIs
After a 15-run loss to Rajasthan Royals on Friday, Rishabh Pant’s side remained unchanged. Despite the fact that they lost the game, they faced an in-form Jos Buttler who was not about to stop scoring runs. There are no injuries in the Delhi team, and we’d be surprised if they didn’t stick with the same starting lineup for this encounter.

Kolkata Knight Riders Team News & Probable Playing XIs
After three straight losses, KKR made three changes ahead of Saturday’s close loss to Gujarat Titans at the DY Patil Stadium. Sam Billings, Tim Southee, and Rinku Singh were brought in, but they were unable to avert a second consecutive close loss. Sticking with the same XI and showing faith in the players could help KKR.
