IPL 2020: KKR Vs DC DREAM11 PREDICTION | MATCH 42 | KKR VS DC

MATCH DETAILS:

Match 42 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 will be played between Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Saturday. The match would be telecasted live from 3:30pm onwards.

PREVIEW FOR DREAM11 FANTASY:

The Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 Match 42 pits the Delhi Capitals against the Kolkata Knight Riders on Saturday at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

With Shikhar Dhawan coming into this game on the back of two consecutive IPL hundreds, the Capitals’ batsmen have chipped in with telling contributions as well. Sooner rather than later, with the IPL entering its final third, they would like the duo of Rishabh Pant and Prithvi Shaw to join the party. Delhi will love their chances of winning on Saturday, but it’s not going to be as easy as it seems.

So far, their rivals, the Knight Riders of Kolkata, have had a tumultuous campaign and have five wins in ten games. With Morgan and co being decimated by RCB in their previous IPL game, a change in captaincy has not performed the wonders KKR fans would have wished for.

So far, their rivals, the Knight Riders of Kolkata, have had a tumultuous campaign, and have five wins in ten games. A change of captaincy has not succeeded, with Morgan and co being decimated by RCB of their previous IPL game, the wonders KKR fans would have wished for.

With none of Shubman Gill and Nitish Rana able to get going in the middle overs, the Knight Riders’ batting unit hasn’t clicked late. With the availability of Sunil Narine and Andre Russell both up in the air, Brendon McCullum and the KKR management have a lot to think about.

As DC walked away with the two points, the previous IPL 2020 meeting between the two sides saw Shreyas Iyer and Anrich Nortje star in a high-scoring thriller. Though DC are the obvious favourites for this encounter, they will be wary of the depth KKR has, and this should make Abu Dhabi a competitive contest.

WEATHER REPORT:

There are zero chances of rainfall during the reverse IPL 2020 fixture between the Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals. The temperature will stay around 33 degrees Celsius.

PITCH REPORT:

The Sheikh Zayed Stadium pitch has been a touch on the slower side, and in IPL 2020, the batsmen have found some success at this venue.

Owing to the adequate swing on offer, the pacers also enjoyed the conditions up front. This forced teams to see out the initial phase while at the end of the innings holding wickets in hand.

The boundaries aren’t as small as those in Sharjah, which makes running between the wickets more necessary. Both teams would like to bat first with the weather not expected to change much during the game, with this being an afternoon fixture. 160 should be par on this surface, although both sides have the firepower to breach this score with ease.

INJURY AND AVAILABILITY NEWS:

There are no availability and injury issues regarding players from both sides.

PROBABLE PLAYING XI OF KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS:

Rahul Tripathi, Shubman Gill, Nitish Rana, Dinesh Karthik (WK), Eoin Morgan (C), Sunil Narine/Andre Russell, Pat Cummins, Lockie Ferguson, Varun Chakravarthy, Kuldeep Yadav and Prasidh Krishna/Shivam Mavi.
