Delhi Capitals from 07:30 pm today at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Delhi Capitals, ranked third in the IPL 2021 Points Table, will play today's match after winning two consecutive matches against Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians, while Sunrisers Hyderabad registered their first win by defeating Punjab Kings in their last match.

The squad of Delhi Capitals look strong on paper. DC's star opener Shikhar Dhawan has so far attained the maximum runs in the tournament so far. At the same time, Australian batsman Steve Smith was also seen in great touch in the last match against Mumbai Indians. With the presence of Kagiso Rabada and Ravichandran Ashwin, DC' bowling lineup too looks strong.

Young fast bowler Avesh Khan is also doing well this year. Veteran leg-spinner Amit Mishra has also emerged as a key player for his team as in DC's previous game against Mumbai Indians, he was adjudged the man of the match.

On the other hand, Sunrisers Hyderabad won their last match after three consecutive defeats due to the failure of their middle order, which later saw the return of star player Kane Williamson.

On the spin-friendly Chennai pitch against the likes of Mishra and Ashwin, Williamson will have an important role to play. If Hyderabad wants to make a big total, then its batsmen need to have some solid partnerships and push it to the end of the innings. When it comes to bowling, Hyderabad's strength is its spin department.
