Delhi Daredevils (DD) will be actually having the similar thought in their mind too as they take on against team Gujarat at Green Park stadium in Kanpur. DD are also out of the knock-out round now and will play to salvage some pride in their remaining matches at IPL this season.

DD’s performance this season was a complete lusterless one as the team could win just four matches out of 11 matches that they played so far. In their last match at home against the table topper Mumbai Indians, DD were bundled out for just 66 while chasing Mumbai’s 213 to win. Likewise, GL’s own form has been inconsistent too winning just 4 matches from 12 games so far despite Raina’s good form with 434 runs to his credit.

Team News for Gujarat Lions (GL)

Gujarat Lions are also on the verge of ending their IPL tournament on a disappointing note. They have still two more matches in their kitty and must be looking forward to win both the games and finish off the tournament in style.

Gujarat’s main concern would be the unavailability of the opener Brendon McCullum. He is in good form and the team will definitely miss his service. In the absence of McCullum, GL will heavily depend upon Suresh Raina, Smith, Ishan Kishan and Dinesh Karthik to post a big total on the scoreboard.

Skipper Raina will definitely expect some good seam bowling from Basil Thampi and Pradeep Sangwan at Kanpur. Lots were expected from ace all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja too but until now, he has been off colour.

Team News for Delhi Daredevils (DD)

During the last match between DD and GL, team Delhi had the last laugh as Pant’s 43-ball 97 steered Delhi to a comfortable win with 15 balls in hand while chasing a huge 208. Zaheer Khan-led team must be hoping to repeat the same miraculous performance at Wednesday’s match too.

Much of Delhi’s batting will also depend upon how its middle order shape up the game. Youngster Sanju Samson is in good form with a total of 374 runs in his kitty. Also, the batting performance by Corey Anderson, Shreyas Iyer and Karun Nair will be crucial factor to DD’s batting in the middle overs.

The bowling will once again revolve around Zaheer Khan, Pat Cummins and Amit Mishra as their main strike bowlers Chris Morris and Kagiso Rabada are returning to South Africa for national duty.

Predicted Playing XI (Both Teams)

Gujarat Lions (GL): Dwayne Smith, Ishan Kishan, Suresh Raina (Captain), Dinesh Karthik (Wicket Keeper), Aaron Finch, Ravindra Jadeja, James Faulkner, Dhawal Kulkarni, Pradeep Sangwan, Basil Thampi and Ankit Soni.

Delhi Daredevils (DD): Sanju Samson, Karun Nair, Rishabh Pant (Wicket Keeper), Shreyas Iyer, Marlon Samuels, Corey Anderson, Pat Cummins, Carlos Braithwaite, Zaheer Khan (Captain), Amit Mishra and Mohammed Shami.

Head to Head: Delhi Daredevils (DD) have 2-1 win record against Gujarat Lions (GL).

Match Result Prediction: Gujarat Lions (GL) will win.

Venue: Green Park Stadium, Kanpur. Match will telecast live on SONY ESPN from 8 PM onwards.
