KXIP VS DC Preview:
Kings XI Punjab has made it a habit of taking things to the very last ball in IPL 2020. We don’t think any other side would have been involved in as many thrilling encounters as it has. KXIP managed to win against the Mumbai Indians in its last match after two Super Overs! A short turnaround means that the team will need to get back to its best quickly as it takes on the Delhi Capitals. The Delhi Capitals have won seven out of their nine matches so far and now sit clear at the top of the table. Another win should be enough to ensure it qualifies for the playoffs and it can then concentrate on locking up a top-2 place.
Pitch Report:
Dubai International Stadium hosted a few IPL fixtures in 2014. In T20I matches played on this ground, the teams batting first have breached the 200-run landmark on multiple occasions. The UAE pitches have generally assisted the slower bowlers, but the track at the Dubai International Stadium has been good for batting as well. The highest first innings score at this venue has been 211, which was recorded by Sri Lanka in 2013 and the average run rate in T20I games at Dubai is 7.13. This beautiful ground would support a lot of turn in the ball, which means spinners will be able to ace the surface quite easily.

1st Innings Score: 176/6
2nd Innings Score: 178/4

Dream11 Breakdown:
Wicket-Keeper:
In this section we have the worlds best T20 batsmen, KL Rahul who will be captaining KXIP as well as wicket-keeping. He is currently the highest scorer in this IPL scoring runs far ahead than others in the list. He also averages above 50 and is on a mission to bring his team to the finish line.
Batsmen:
In this section we have Shreyas Iyer, Mayank Agarwal and Chris Gayle for the batting order. Mayank stands second in the highest run getters, while his team mate Gayle has turned out to play well in his first two games and will now look to go big in this clash too. Shreyas as we all know is a classy player who ranges all over the ground and can hit huge sixes whenever needed.
All-Rounders:
In this section we have Marcus Stoinis, Glenn Maxwell and Axar Patel. Stoinis and Axar played extremely well in the previous game. Maxwell is still finding it difficult to adjust to the conditions and his consistency is lacking. Therefore these three are the top all-rounders who can create a balance to the dream team.
Bowlers:
In this section we have Mohammad Shami, Kagiso Rabada, Arshdeep Singh and Anrich Nortje. All the bowlers chosen are based on conditions. Since the pacers have aced well in many occasions, they are still a go to choice in this field. Rabada holds the highest wickets of the tournament. While Nortje holds the record for bowling the fastest ball of the season. The other two players are also well experienced and have proved by bowling well in the super over.
