KKR enters this game after losing their previous game against Punjab Kings. Starting with their loss to CSK in the fourth game of the campaign, they have won and lost every alternate game. Against PBKS, they scored 261 and were unable to defend it. While their batters consistently score runs, their bowling attack has been a big source of concern.
On the other hand, DC has won five games, including their most recent home game against the Mumbai Indians. As a squad, they are looking for continuity in their playing group and peaking at the correct time. The addition of Jake-Fraser McGurk has been a game changer for DC.
KKR will seek to get back to winning ways after this game, while DC will look to extend their winning streak. KKR needs to improve their bowling performance and find strategies to win their last two home games.
