After their loss against Mumbai in the last IPL 2023 game, fans and cricket experts wanted KKR to include Litton Das and Jason Roy in their playing XI for the match against the Delhi Capitals.

Seems like the KKR management have heard all the outside noises as Litton is all set to make his IPL debut, while Roy is geared up to play his first match for the Knight Riders.

Bought for INR 50 lakh, Litton is an aggressive player and will be a useful asset for the KKR side. The Bangladesh wicket-keeper has replaced Rahmanullah Gurbaz, who was woefully out of touch in the last few matches.

Talking about Roy, he was brought in as a replacement for Shakib Al Hasan, who opted out of the IPL due to personal reasons. Another explosive opening batter, Roy has previously played for Delhi Capitals, Gujarat Lions, and Sunrisers Hyderabad.

He was roped in by the Gujarat Titans for the 2022 IPL season, but the England batter pulled out at the last moment.

There are several other changes made by KKR. Apart from Roy and Litton, KKR have included Mandeep Singh and Kulwant Khejroliya in the playing XI.

Delhi Capitals have won the toss and have elected to bowl first.
