IPL 2026: Top Order In Focus As DC Eye Hat-trick Of Victories Over Winless GT (Preview)
Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy: Delhi Capitals will hope their misfiring top order finally fires as they chase their third straight win of IPL 2026 against a winless Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Wednesday. GT leads the head-to-head record 4-3 and have won two out of three matches in New Delhi, including chasing down 200 last year.
DC have been clinical in both wins - chasing targets with 17 and 11 balls to spare. But those margins have papered over a persistent crack at the top. KL Rahul, Pathum Nissanka and Nitish Rana have averaged a combined 10.2, leaving the heavy lifting to a middle order that has, so far, answered every call.
Against a GT bowling attack desperate to find rhythm, DC's top three cannot afford another meltdown. Rahul has been dismissed in the first over in both outings this season, though memories of his magnificent 112 against GT at this venue last year should help him negotiate the new ball more confidently. Nissanka showed promise with 44 against MI, while Rana needs to break free from his modest returns.
