A total of 25 matches have been played in IPL 2023 (IPL 2023). In season 16, two matches will be played on 20th April. Delhi Capitals, struggling with bad form, will have to defeat Kolkata Knight Riders at any cost on 20th April in the do-or-die match of the Indian Premier League.
This match will be do-or-die for Delhi Capitals because they haven’t won a single match in IPL 2023 so far. This team is in danger of being thrown out of IPL 2023. In such a situation, another defeat may be heavy for this team. If the David Warner-led team loses this match, all the doors to the playoffs will be almost closed. The teams will face each other at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.
Indian opener batter Prithvi Shaw was the star of Delhi Capitals the last season. This season, he has scored only 34 runs in five matches, and his highest score has been 15 runs. Due to this, the possibility of his being dropped from the team is strong. Delhi has lost all five matches so far this season, due to which changes in the top order can be seen in the match against KKR.
On the other hand, Kolkata Knight Riders would like to forget the defeat from Sunrisers Hyderabad in the last match. Captain Nitish Rana, middle-order batsman Rinku Singh and aggressive West Indies batsman Andre Russell can tear apart any bowling attack. This will be the first match of leg-spinner Suyash Sharma at his home ground.
