Resurgent delhi capitals

Resurgent Delhi Capitals: It seems that Delhi Capitals have just found their groove in IPL 2024, something which deserted them in the initial days of the competition. Back-to-back wins over Lucknow Super Giants and Gujarat Titans’ means the side are coming back to their original home ground, Arun Jaitley Stadium, on a confident note.

But sixth-placed resurgent DC have their task cut out straightaway – they will be hosting a tough and marauding Sunrisers Hyderabad outfit, standing in fourth place in the points table on Saturday evening. SRH, the IPL 2016 winners, have created a reputation for posting big totals on the back of blazing starts in power-play, thanks to their bevy of power-hitters.

Saturday’s match also marks Rishabh Pant’s long-awaited return of playing an IPL game at his home ground after 1813 days. The left-handed wicket-keeper’s last IPL match in Delhi was on May 4, 2019. By then, he had become the side’s lead keeper-batter.
