MATCH DETAILS:
SERIES: Dream11 IPL, 2020
VENUE: Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi.
DATE & TIME: 24th October, 03:30 PM, IST.
KKR VS DC Preview:
Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Delhi Capitals (DC) will kickstart the proceedings of the double-header Saturday when they square off in Match 42 of Dream11 Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. KKR will be looking to bounce back in style after their eight-wicket defeat at the hands of Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB). DC will also be eager to make amends following their loss against Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) in their last game. While both the teams are currently in the top half of the points table, a win will help them strengthen their position. The last time these two teams squared off, it was a run-fest in Sharjah where close to 440 runs were scored.
Pitch Report:
The Sheikh Zayed Stadium has hosted 45 T20I matches in the last ten years, where the highest team total has been 225/7. The pitch has been good for batsmen, but the spin bowlers often trouble them on this ground. The average run rate in T20I games played in Abu Dhabi is 7, which shows that anything above 140 will be a par score. The surfaces at the UAE are all slowish and hence make it very difficult for the batsmen to hit the biggies.
Innings Predicted Scores:
1st Innings Score: 147/5
2nd Innings Score: 149/4
KKR Playing XI:
Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi, Nitish Rana, Tom Banton, Eoin Morgan (C), Dinesh Karthik (Wk), Pat Cummins, Shivam Mavi, Varun Chakravarthy, Kuldeep Yadav, Lockie Ferguson.

Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer (C), Shimron Hetmyer, Rishabh Pant (wk), Marcus Stoinis, Axar Patel, R Ashwin, Tushar Deshpande, Kagiso Rabada and Anrich Nortje.
Dream11 breakdown:
Wicket-keeper:
In this section we have both wicketkeepers from both the sides. Rishab Pant and Dinesh Karthik are extremely skilled in electric stumping especially Pant who has proved himself at many occasions and also with the bat, therefore these two players are the best choice for our dream team in the wicket-keeping section.
Batsmen:
In this section we have Shubman Gill, Shreyas Iyer, Shikar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw as the top performers for their respective teams.
