TEAMS PREVIEW

South Delhi Preview

After two consecutive losses, Ayush Badoni's team suffered its first loss, going down by 7 wickets against the East Delhi Riders. It was a poor show from the bowling attack as they failed to defend 191 runs on the board. Badoni will look for a better show from his bowlers in this game. 

Priyansh Arya is batting well at the top, and he must deliver a good start in this game with Sarthak Ray. Ayush Badoni will look to use his experience in the middle order and add runs with Tejaswi Dahiya and Dhruv Singh. The team also expects runs from Vision Panchal and Tarun Bisht to add runs in the lower middle order. 

Ayush Badoni did well with the ball in the last game, but the rest of the attack failed. He must pick early wickets in the game with Divij Mehra. Kuldip Yadav and Digvesh Rathi must bowl better lines than they did in the last game. The side will also expect a better show from Panchal, Sumit Mathur, and Priyansh Arya. 

South Delhi Predicted Playing XI:

Ayush Badoni (c), Sarthak Ray, Priyansh Arya, Tejaswi Dahiya (wk), Dhruv Singh, Tarun Bisht, Vision Panchal, Sumit Mathur, Divij Mehra, Digvesh Rathi, Kuldip Yadav, Digvesh Rathi (Impact Player)

South Delhi Actual Playing XI:

Dhruv Singh, Vision Panchal, Priyansh Arya, Sarthak Ray, Deepanshu Gulia, Tarun Bisht , Ayush Badoni, Kuldip Yadav, Sumit Mathur, Digvesh Rathi, Shubham Dubey, Tejasvi

West Delhi Lions Preview

Hrithik Shokeen's team must find its form. They have lost three games in a row and went down against the Central Delhi Kings in the last game by 10 wickets. The batsmen failed to put runs on the board, and the bowling attack didn't deliver the goods. The Shokeen expects a better show from his players in this must-win game. 

The team expects a strong start in this game from Ankit Rajesh Kumar and Vivek Yadav, as they haven't been consistent. In the middle order, Yugal Saini, Krish Yadav, and Ayush Doseja must score at a good strike rate. Hrithik Shokeen will look to do the big-hitting in the lower middle order with Dev Lakra and Aryan Dalal. 

The bowling attack failed to do well in the last game. Navdeep Saini must use his experience to get early wickets with Dev Lakra. Akhil Chaudhary and Shokeen must bowl tight spells in the middle overs. Suryakant Chauhan and Tishant Pawan Dabla add to the team's bowling options and must be at their best.

West Delhi Lions Predicted Playing XI:

Hrithik Shokeen (c), Vivek Yadav, Yugal Saini, Krish Yadav (wk), Ayush Doseja, Dev Lakra, Tishant Pawan Dabla, Aryan Dalal, Suryakant Chauhan, Navdeep Saini, Akhil Chaudhary, Ankit Rajesh Kumar (Impact Player)

West Delhi Lions Actual Playing XI:

Krish Yadav , Shivam Gupta, Aryan Dalal, Yugal Saini, Ankit Kumar, Tishant Dabla, Hrithik Shokeen, Shivank Vashisht, Deepak Punia, Akhil Chaudhary, Rohit Yadav

PITCH AND WEATHER CONDITIONS

Weather Conditions

We expect overcast skies over Delhi and a flat track where batters can play their strokes easily. There isn't much on this wicket for the bowlers, with an average first-inning score over 170 runs. The side batting first would like more than 180 runs on the board.

SD vs WDL Pitch Report

Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi, is one of India's best venues for T20 cricket. Batsmen can play here without fear as the ball comes onto the bat nicely. We have seen high-scoring games here in the past. Fast bowlers have to bring out their variations to do well here, and the spinners enjoy good from the wicket.

Toss: To Bowl

In 12 games played, the side batting first has won only once. We have seen big scores, and the wicket makes it a good surface to chase. The side that wins the toss in this game would opt to bowl first and try and dismiss the opponent for a small total.
