DC vs GT T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, IPL 2023
Match 7 of the 2023 Indian Premier League sees Delhi Capitals go head to head with Gujarat Titans at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Tuesday evening. The Capitals were beaten by 50 runs by Lucknow Super Giants on Saturday with the Titans winning by five wickets against Chennai Super Kings in Match 1. Read on as we preview this clash. This match gets underway in Delhi at 19:30 local time.
Delhi Capitals were well beaten by Lucknow Super Giants but should have a stronger XI for this game. With Anrich Nortje in the team, they should have more firepower but it may not be enough against this excellent Gujarat side.
Gujarat Titans have lost none of their confidence from last year’s successful campaign and will be near full strength in this match. They should have enough to beat Delhi Capitals.

DC Team News & Playing 11
DC Team News
The first game without their injured captain, Rishabh Pant, was always going to be tough for Delhi Capitals but few would have predicted a 50-run defeat. This will be another tough game but the availability of Lungi Ngidi and Anrich Nortje is a big boost to the side.
DC Key Players
- David Warner - The Australian opener needs only 63 runs in this match to become the third player in the history of the IPL to go past 6000 runs.
- Rilee Rossouw - The South African middle-order batter had the highest strike-rate for the Capitals on Saturday with 30 runs from 20 balls.
- Khaleel Ahmed - The left-arm quick bowler brought up his 50th IPL dismissal in the defeat to Lucknow Super Giants after picking up the wickets of Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran.
- Anrich Nortje - Nortje has joined the DC camp after completing the Netherlands series. He is an important bowler for the team and we are expecting him to pick some crucial wickets in this contest. He has picked 43 wickets in 30 matches in IPL.
DC Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Lungi Ngidi, Ishant Sharma, Lalit Yadav, Rovman Powel
The Capitals have some excellent options in their squad to make an impact. Rovman Powell will be the obvious player to come in for the second innings if Delhi are batting. Lungi Ngidi can provide an additional pace bowling option if required.
DC Team Form
Delhi Capitals were beaten in their last game of the 2022 IPL and are now looking to avoid their third successive defeat in this match.

GT Team News & Playing 11
GT Team News
21 year old left-hander, Sai Sudharsan, came in as an impact player replacement for the injured Kane Williamson in Match 1 and impressed with 22 runs from 17 balls. Williamson damaged his knee whilst fielding and has since returned to New Zealand to begin his rehabilitation.
GT Key Players
- Shubman Gill - It does not matter who the opposition is or what the format is, Shubman Gill continues his strong form. He hit six fours and three sixes against Chennai Super Kings.
- Mohammed Shami - The experienced right-arm pace bowler was at the top of his game once more on Friday. He dismissed Devon Conway and Shivam Dube.
- Rashid Khan - The Afghan leg-spinner not only returned the best bowling figures for the Titans in Match 1 but also hit 10 not out from three balls with the bat.
- David Miller - Miller will be part of the playing 11 in this match. He played well in the last season and we can say that he is the real strength of the GT’s middle-order. He is also in good touch as seen in the Netherlands series. Miller has smashed 2455 runs in 105 IPL matches.
GT Possible Impact Player Substitutes
Sai Sudharsan, Matthew Wade, Darshan Nalkande, Noor Ahma
Sai Sudharsan showed his value as an impact player on Friday and he will be ready to step up once again in this match. If the pitch looks like it is spinning then expect Noor Ahmad to join Rashid Khan in the team.

Who will win Delhi Capitals vs Gujarat Titans T20 Match?
Player for player there is not much to choose between these two sides but Gujarat Titans will have more confidence. The Titans come into this game as the top team with both bat and ball.
🏆 DC vs GT Prediction
We are predicting a very entertaining and close contest in Delhi on Tuesday evening. The Capitals will not want to lose successive games at the start of the campaign and Anrich Nortje should make a big difference to their bowling attack. However, Gujarat Titans have excellent variety in their bowling attack and in Rashid Khan have a leg-spinner who is in excellent form and will enjoy this surface. Overall, we are backing Gujarat Titans to win.
