IPL2022 has a more competitive tournament with 10 teams fighting it hard for the top-4 spots. Already 5 teams have got 10 or more points in the mid-way of the tournament. Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders are currently struggling at the seventh and eighth positions in the table. KKR after their superb start of 3 wins in their first 4 matches have lost their last 4 matches on a trot to languish at the bottom half of the table. DC are yet to win back-to-back matches and have lost more matches than they have won. Both teams are searching for momentum currently and a win in this match will provide them the impetus going ahead.
DC has been too reliant on the openers David Warner (219 runs, 3 fifties) and Prithvi Shaw (254 runs, 2 fifties) in their batting. Rishabh Pant has played some good cameos but is yet to make a fifty so far. Rovman Powell showcased his big hitting abilities last night and will be needed to play a big role in middle order alongside all-rounders Lalit Yadav, Axar Patel, and Shardul Thakur.
Kuldeep Yadav (13 wickets) and Khaleel Ahmed (11 wickets) have been their main wicket-takers in this season so far. Axar Patel, Mustafizur Rahman, and Lalit Yadav have chipped in with wickets and have kept the batters silent with economy rates under 8 RPO. Shardul Thakur has been going at economy rate of 9.6 RPO and will be looking to make a comeback with the ball in this match.

KKR batters have not been able to perform consistently with skipper Shreyas Iyer (248 runs) and Andre Russell (227 runs) being the top run scorers. Nitish Rana and Ventakesh Iyer have made very less effect barring a lone fifty and Sunil Narine experiment does not seem to work this season. Aaron Finch and Sheldon Jackson might be included at the expense of Sam Billings and Rinku Singh in this match.
Sunil Narine has been their best bowler with 6 wickets at an impressive economy of 5.37 RPO. Tim Southee too has been excellent picking up 8 wickets in just 3 matches. Andre Russell is taking vital wickets in death but is giving away runs at over 10 RPO. Umesh Yadav seems to have lost a bit of rhythm from the season start while Varun Chakravarthy is having a disastrous season.

Mumbai will have a hot and humid weather and the anti-dew agents sprayed on the field are nullifying the effects of the dew on ground. We expect a full match with no interruptions in this match.
Wankhede has beautiful batting conditions, and we can expect scores in the range of 180-190 runs in this match easily. New ball might swing, seam, and stop on the batters but batting becomes easier once the ball gets older.
The pitch seems to slow down a little in the second innings and dew factor not making a big impact, we expect the captains to bat first if they win the toss. The last 5 matches played here has been won by teams batting first.
DC lacks a reliable No.3 and lacks lower order contribution consistently in the batting department and they have a good mix of pace and spin in their bowling department effectively. They will look to plug their weaknesses in this match. KKR has a string of all-rounders, but they do not have settled batting line-up which is hurting their team. Their bowlers have been leaking runs at a high rate and need to resurrect their ways in this match. We expect DC to win this match as they look a little bit more settled line-up when compared to KKR.
DELHI CAPITALS WILL WIN THE MATCH
