THE LOWDOWN

KOLKATA KNIGHT RIDERS

  • Kolkata Knight Riders remain inside the top two, but are now tied on ten points with four other teams, underlining the importance of their net-run-rate although they have played less than each of those four sides.
  • However, KKR have lost ground on table toppers Rajasthan Royals recently, having lost two of their last three games, including an eight-wicket defeat over Punjab Kings which saw them fail to defend 261.

DELHI CAPITALS

  • Fresh off the back of their 10-run victory at home to Mumbai Indians, Delhi Capitals now boast ten points and an even 5-5 record after having won four of their last five 2024 IPL fixtures.
  • Their win over Mumbai was most notable for another blistering Jake Fraser-McGurk knock, the young Aussie smashing 84 from just 27 balls to help Delhi rack up an eventual winning score of 257/4.

THE PREDICTION

Whilst Kolkata Knight Riders sit about Delhi Capitals through a superior net-run-rate, the Capitals have the edge when it comes to the recent form book and travel to Eden Gardens full of confidence. Momentum is firmly in the visitors favour and there are worrying signs that KKR could be about to collapse with their bowlers unable to stem the flurry of runs against them of late, failing to defend scores of 223 and 261 in recent games. With that in mind, back Delhi Capitals to accrue not only the win, but also a positive record for the first time this year.

TIP: DELHI CAPITALS TO WIN
