Background

IPL 2020 HIGHLIGHTS, DC vs KXIP: A very poor start from the Delhi Capitals!!! The top-order has been sent packing by the KXIP, courtesy Shami's fiery opening spell. Right-hand fast medium Mohammed Shami is bowling the second over and takes full advantage of the grass present on the pitch...bowl a beautiful out-swing. Uneven bounce on the Dubai track is really troubling the batsman at the moment!

Some approaching MILESTONES ahead of the DC vs KXIP match in IPL 2020: Universe Boss Chris Gayle needs just 16 more runs to amass 4500 IPL runs! KXIP skipper KL Rahul needs to score 23 runs in today's game to complete 2000 IPL runs. DC's stylish batsman Rishabh Pant needs to hit six more sixes to complete 100 IPL sixes.

After the blockbuster series opener in Abu Dhabi, the second match of IPL 2020 will be played between Delhi Capitals (DC) and Kings XI Punjab (KXIP) at Dubai on Sunday. Kings XI Punjab will aim to maintain their winning streak in Dubai as they have won all their matches played in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). On the other hand, Delhi Capitals will also aim to start the tournament with a win.

The battle between two young team India's cricketers, KL Rahul and Shreyas Iyer will also be closely watched. IPL 2020 will be the first time KL Rahul will captain Kings XI Punjab in the entire tournament.

The Delhi team has some great players like Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer, Prithvi Shaw, Ajinkya Rahane, Rishabh Pant, Marcus Stoinis, Daniel Sams and Shimron Hetmyer. At the same time, players like KL Rahul, Glenn Maxwell, Chris Gayle, Sarfaraz Khan, Mayank Agarwal and Nicholas Pooran in Kings XI Punjab make it a tough side to beat. However, despite having such a star studded list of players, both teams are yet to win their maiden IPL title.

Match prediction

Delhi Capitals look strong on paper and they are most likely to win this match. Still, if Chris Gayle and Maxwell fires with the bat, it will turn out to be a close encounter.

DC vs KXIP, Pitch Report

According to Delhi Capitals coach Ricky Ponting, there will be grass on the pitch at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Fast bowlers can make the big difference in today's game. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic, the pitch must have been covered for a long time, in this case, water must have been poured on the pitch before the match and due to this it is natural for the fast bowlers to get help here.
