The condition of Delhi Capitals is very bad and if they want to make it to the playoffs, they need to get important wins in the upcoming matches. In the match against Hyderabad, Rishabh Pant as captain made some mistakes, he misjudged the snowfall and decided to bowl after winning the toss. The result of Rishabh Pant's toss was disappointing as Hyderabad has made a habit of batting first in record-breaking run chases this season.

After this, after 19 runs were scored in the first over bowled by Khalil Ahmed, he gave the second over to Lalit Yadav and cleared the way for the run chase for the Hyderabad team. Taking advantage of the first two overs, Hyderabad team threatened to score 125 runs without losing any wicket in the powerplay itself. The batsmen of Hyderabad team destroyed the entire bowling of Delhi team and scored 266 runs.

Khalil Ahmed was the only one who scored 51 runs in 3 overs. His continuous poor form in the current season has affected the team's bowling performance. South Africa's Henrique Norkia also failed to perform as per expectations. The bowling of Kuldeep Yadav, who took 10 wickets in 5 matches this season, has also been a flop against Hyderabad. There were 7 sixes in his bowling. Ishant Sharma, who missed the last game due to a back problem, is likely to play in today's game.

Delhi's batting has also been inconsistent. While chasing the target of 267 runs against Hyderabad, top order batsmen David Warner and Prithvi Shah disappointed. However, Jack Fraser-McKirk's 65 off 18 balls and Abhishek Borrell's 42 off 22 balls gave hope. At one time Delhi team had scored 131 runs in 8 overs. But other batsmen including Rishabh Pant who came after him failed to perform aggressively.

Due to this, Delhi team could score only 68 runs in the last 12 overs. Although Rishabh Pant remained on the field till the first ball of the last over, he could only add 44 runs in 35 balls. The main reason for this was the bowling strategy of Hyderabad team. Because the bowlers of that team mostly bowled slow balls. Due to this, Delhi team's run accumulation reached its lowest level and they had to face defeat.

Shubman Gill-led Gujarat Titans have not been able to perform consistently. The team is at sixth position in the table with 8 points from 8 matches with 4 wins and 4 losses. In the last match, the team had won against Punjab Kings by 3 wickets. Shubman's primary dependence on Gill in batting has weakened. In the match against Punjab team, Gujarat team struggled for the target of 143 runs and won. In that match, Rahul Divatiya won the match by swinging the bat in the final overs. Therefore, to win today's game, it is necessary for Rithiman Saha, Sai Sudarshan, David Miller, Asmadullah Omarzai to display impressive batting ranges.

In bowling, Mohit Sharma, Rashid Khan and Sai Kishore can try to put pressure on Delhi's batting order. Delhi Capitals and Gujarat Titans are facing each other for the second time this season. In the match held in Ahmedabad on 17th, Delhi team bowled out Gujarat team for just 89 runs. Delhi won this match by 6 wickets. In today's game, Gujarat Titans can try to avenge this defeat.
