Gujarat Titans will come in as a more confident unit after winning their last match against Punjab Kings.
Preview
Delhi Capitals (DC) will host Gujarat Titans (GT) in the 40th match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024. When the duo met last week, the Titans had an unforgettable outing at home in Ahmedabad. When Shubman Gill and Co. travel to the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi, they will look to atone for their six-wicket loss.
In their last meeting, GT were bundled out for a mere total of 89 in 17.3 overs, thanks to a poor batting display. Batting in reply, DC overcame the target in 8.5 overs after minor hiccups. However, the visitors will come in as a more confident unit after winning their last match against Punjab Kings (PBKS).
They are currently sixth in the points table with four wins and eight points from eight matches. On the other hand, DC suffered a humiliating loss to Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) in their previous game and are currently eighth in the table with three wins and six points from eight matches.

Pitch Report
Captains
Fraser-McGurk is an explosive batter and has displayed his ferocious hitting in the three matches he has played so far. The right-handed batter has amassed 140 runs at an average of 46.67 and a strike rate of 222.22.
Shubman Gill is the backbone of GT’s batting unit. Their total score on the board will depend on Gill’s performance. The 2023 Orange Cap winner has so far scored 298 runs including two fifties.
Kuldeep Yadav grabbed a four-wicket haul when DC last played at this venue. The left-arm wrist spinner has been delivering his best and will look to continue this momentum in the upcoming matches.
Top
Rishabh Pant has been impressive with bat and gloves. He has so far scored 254 runs at a strike rate of 150.30 and is DC’s strength in the middle order.
Rashid Khan is GT’s trump card. The Afghanistan spin wizard’s four overs are crucial as they can change the course of the game. He can also chip in with some vital runs in the lower middle order.
Sai Kishore was adjudged the Player of the Match against PBKS after taking four wickets. The left-arm orthodox spinner currently has the fourth-best average (14.17).
