DC vs SRH Pitch Report

This will be the first game of IPL 2024 that will be played at the Arun Jaitley Stadium. The wicket here has traditionally been of a slowish and sluggish nature. However, we can expect better batting conditions from a fresh wicket. But as the game progresses, the spinners will come into the game. 

Arun Jaitley Stadium Ground Stats (IPL 2024)

Matches: 84
Matches won batting first: 37
Matches won batting second: 46

Average first innings total: 165
Average second innings total: 149
Highest total recorded: 231/4 by Punjab Kings vs Delhi Capitals
Lowest total recorded: 83/10 by Delhi Capitals vs Chennai Super Kings

Fantasy value from the pitch report

• The batters will have a good time at this wicket. However, as the game progresses, the track will slow down a bit and help the spinners. Therefore, the batters who handle spin well will be good choices for the game. 
• In the case of the bowlers, there will be a bit of help with the new ball, and then, as the match progresses, the spinners will have an impact on the game. So, one or a couple of new ball bowlers alongside a couple of bowlers could be a safe combination for the match.

DC vs SRH Fantasy Cricket Tips

Delhi Capitals Heavy Fantasy XI

• In a Capitals-heavy fantasy XI, Rishabh Pant and Jake Fraser-McGurk will be the most important picks from the DC batting. 
• As far as the bowlers are concerned, Khaleel Ahmed, Kuldeep Yadav, and Mukesh Kumar will be the best choices. 

Sunrisers Hyderabad Heavy Fantasy XI

• The SRH batters have been in brilliant form in the tournament. Players like Travis Head, Abhishek Sharma, and Heinrich Klaasen will be the best picks from the batting line-up. 
• Bhuvneshwar Kumar has a good record against DC and could be a game-changing choice for the game. Pat Cummins has gained his form back in the last game and will be one of the safer choices. 

DC vs SRH Winner Prediction

Both DC and SRH have momentum with them after convincing wins in their respective last outings. It promises to be a very close clash, but the team batting first will have a slight advantage. 

DC vs SRH Top Player Picks

Jake Fraser-McGurk (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 75 Runs in 2 Matches
• The 22-year-old Australian batter has looked dangerous in his first couple of IPL games. Jake Fraser-McGurk has made his presence count whenever he has walked out to bat. He should be a must-pick for this game. 

Khaleel Ahmed (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 10 Wickets in 7 Matches
• The Indian left-arm pacer has been in great form in this tournament. Khaleel Ahmed has ten wickets under his belt in seven matches. He has picked up wickets in almost all stages of the game, and that makes him a prime pick for the game. 

Heinrich Klaasen has been in great form in IPL 2024 [AP Photos]

Heinrich Klaasen (SRH)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 253 Runs in 6 Matches
• The South African middle-order batter has been in godly form in the last 10-12 months. Heinrich Klaasen has carried the form into this IPL and has been the mainstay of the SRH batting in this tournament. 

Pat Cummins (SRH)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 9 Wickets in 6 Matches
• The SRH skipper had an average start to the tournament with the ball. But in the last game, Pat Cummins emerged as the match-winner; where he picked up three wickets in a game where nearly 550 runs were scored in 40 overs. Cummins could be an important choice for the fantasy contests. 

DC vs SRH Differential Picks

Tristan Stubbs (DC)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 189 Runs in 6 Matches
• This South African middle-order batter has been in good form in the tournament. Stubbs has scored 189 runs in six matches and has provided dynamism and solidity to the DC middle order. But Stubbs' inconsistency is a bit of an issue, and hence, he is a differential choice for the game. 

Aiden Markram (SRH)

• IPL 2024 Stats: 159 Runs in 6 Matches
• This South African middle-order batter has not been at his best in IPL 2024. He has 159 runs in nine matches and has often failed to fire under pressure. However, Markam does have all the class with him and could regain his touch in any game.
