Delhi Capitals (DC), coming after claiming their first victory of the IPL 2024 season, will put all their efforts into repeating the result and staying away from any loss now.
The Capitals will face a tough challenge as their next match is against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), who have won two out of their two matches and will also look to continue their winning streak. Delhi will have high hopes of winning the upcoming game because their captain Rishabh Pant is back in form, and opener David Warner looks in good touch.
The game between these two teams will be played in Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam on Wednesday, April 2.

Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium Pitch Report:
Visakhapatnam, or Vizag as it’s fondly called, returned to the IPL spotlight after three years in the last match. The batting-friendly pitch here is known for its lively bounce and encourages stroke hits. However, the trend suggests spinners come into their own as the match unfolds, adding a strategic layer to the contest. Despite the pitch’s spin-assisting nature, the arrival of dew in the later overs is likely to tilt the balance back in favour of the batters, making for a well-rounded challenge.
