The clash between Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad will be held at Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai from 7:30 pm today. Talking about Sunrisers, after losing the first two matches, they won five matches in a row and now have lost two matches again. Umran Malik is constantly wreaking havoc on the pace, but he has been insufficient to take the team to victory.
Delhi Capitals has been able to win only 4 matches after playing 9 matches. In such a situation, both the teams will have to perform better in today’s match to reach the play-offs. David Warner and Prithvi Shaw are seen in fine touch. If Delhi’s opening pair clicks, they can register their fifth win of the season.
