Team View
Delhi Capitals showed resilience in their last match, though the abandoned game against Punjab Kings left them with 14 points from 12 matches. Their recent Super Over win against GT in April 2025 highlights their fighting spirit 9. Shreyas Iyer’s leadership, combined with Mitchell Starc’s pace and Axar Patel’s all-round skills, remains key. However, inconsistency in batting and spin bowling could hurt them.
Gujarat Titans, known for their balanced squad, rely on Shubman Gill’s consistency, Sai Sudharsan’s aggression, and Rashid Khan’s spin. GT’s top-order stability and experienced finishers like David Miller make them a formidable side. Their head-to-head record against DC is tight, with GT narrowly trailing 29.
