 DC vs KXIP

MATCH    : DC vs KXIP, MATCH-2, IPL 2020

DATE       : Sunday, Sep 20

TIME        : 07:30 PM (IST)

VENUE    : Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai

MATCH PREVIEW:

     The Delhi Capitals will take on Kings XI Punjab on Sunday, 20th September in the 2nd Match of IPL 2020 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium in Dubai.

     Both these teams haven't tasted much success in IPL. In the previous season, DC finished at the 3rd position while KXIP failed to make it to the playoffs. however, both these teams have a quality young batting lineup and experienced Indian pace bowlers like  Mohammed Shami and  Ishant Sharma.

      As we can see Sheldon Cottrell who has not much impressive in CPL, Mujeeb Ur Rahman who has performed well in CPL may be chances of playing today in place of him.

According to Ricky Pointing, the Dubai pitch has good grass covering which means that seam bowlers will have a big role to play in the initial phase.

     "we've done much of our research, most of our plans with regard to Kings XI Punjab. One thing I'II say about this IPL is that every squad is a very good squad. We can sit back and talk about how flexible the Delhi Capitals squad is and we can guarantee that every other squad is saying exactly the same," said Ricky Pointing, head coach of Delhi Capitals.

POINTS TO NOTE:

     -  Ravichandran Ashwin has dismissed Glenn Maxwell 3 times but he has a strike-rate of 237.14 against him.

     - In the last 2 years Chris Gayle's average jumps by 15 and strike-rate by 20 in IPL compared to other T20 cricket.
