KKR is better placed than DC in the points table due to the start they got. They have been unbeaten in the tournament till now. While KKR is in the top half of the points table, DC is in the bottom half of the points table. KKR is currently in the second spot in the points table.

Both teams have some of the best players in the world. KKR has the likes of Phil Salt, Sunil Narine, Shreyas Iyer, Rinku Singh, Andre Russell, and Mitchell Starc in the lineup. On the other hand, DC has the likes of David Warner, Prithvi Shaw, Mitchell Marsh, Rishabh Pant, Axar Patel, Anrich Nortje, Kuldeep Yadav, and so on.
Best economical pick – Prithvi Shaw returned to action in the game against CSK and made an impact straightaway. The right-handed batter was aggressive as usual and put the bowlers under pressure. His intent with the bat is always good to watch.
Top captains & vice captains – David Warner has been the best batter for DC in the league so far. In all three matches, the star batter has scored runs at a good rate. The Southpaw can bat with intent at the top. He will be crucial for the success of DC in the game against KKR. Andre Russell has been at his best as an all-rounder in the ongoing season. With the bat, his finishing helped KKR to beat SRH. In the second game, his bowling was exceptional on a wicket like M Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Smart pick – Sunil Narine smashed 47 (22) in the game against RCB which helped KKR to seal the game right in the powerplay overs. With the ball, Narine won the match for his side against SRH, where his miserly spell of 1/19 was brilliant on a flat wicket.
Cautious Pick – Nitish Rana injured his finger in the game against SRH. As a result, he did not take part in the match against RCB. Rana is doubtful for the match against DC. Hence, it is better to not pick him.
My XI – David Warner (Captain), Andre Russell (Vice-Captain), Sunil Narine, Prithvi Shaw, Khaleel Ahmed, Mitchell Starc, Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer, Mitchell Marsh, Rinku Singh, Phil Salt
