DC vs CSK Toss Factor

The wicket at Vizag has acted in favour of the batters recently. However, it has been a tricky wicket previously for the batter. An eye on the strength of the two teams gives us the idea that whilst CSK might look to chase a target, DC will try and bat first on winning the toss.

Scenario: If Delhi Capitals win the toss

• If the Delhi Capitals win the toss, they might look to bat first. They have a good bowling unit, and Pant will back them to defend a target. In this case, Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and Khaleel Ahmed will be essential choices from the DC team. 
• David Warner will be a solid choice as he has the experience and technique to bat on a tricky batting track.

Scenario: If Chennai Super Kings win the toss

• Ruturaj Gaikwad will believe in his solid, powerful batting order and might look to chase a target. In a chase, the skipper, Rachin Ravindra, Ajinkya Rahane, and Daryl Mitchell will be good choices for the fantasy contests.
• Mustafizur Rahman has been in good form in the tournament, and the wicket might help his bowling skills. Fizz could be an impactful choice in the game.  

DC vs CSK Top Captain and Vice-captain Picks

Scenario: If Delhi Capitals win the match

David Warner (DC)

The Aussie veteran has yet to be at his best in the tournament so far. However, Warner is a class act and could return to form in this game and be a great choice as the C or VC.

Axar Patel (DC)

Though Axar has not been in rhythm with the ball, he has been decent with the bat. He was the second-highest run-scorer for the team in IPL 2023 and can be impactful with both his trades. 

Scenario: If Chennai Super Kings win the match

Ruturaj Gaikwad (CSK)

The newly appointed CSK skipper has been inconsistent so far in the tournament. However, he could go big in this game, making Gaikwad a good C or VC choice. 

Mustafizur Rahman (CSK)

The Bangladeshi pacer has added a new dimension to the CSK bowling line-up. Mustafizur is currently the highest wicket-taker in the tournament and will be a prime choice as the point multiplier.

DC vs CSK High Risk, High Reward

Kuldeep Yadav (DC)

Kuldeep Yadav has looked in good rhythm in IPL 2024. He can be very effective on this wicket. But CSK have some good spin players and that makes Kuldeep a risky choice as the C or Vc.

Daryl Mitchell (CSK)

The Kiwi middle order has not been in the finest form in IPL 2024. However, he is a good player for spin and a great operator in the middle-overs. Daryl can also be handy with the ball, making him a decent choice as the C or VC for the game. 

DC vs CSK Stay Aways

Ricky Bhui (DC)

The young Indian middle-order batter has not impressed so far in the tournament. Given the current form, Ricky Bhui could be kept away from the fantasy XIs of the match. 

Sameer Rizvi (CSK)

Rizvi played a fiery cameo lower down the order in the last game against GT. However, his batting position is too late to impact the fantasy contests.
