19:30 IST / 14:00 GMT
Sharjah Cricket Stadium - Sharjah, United Arab Emirates
Shikhar Dhawan has hit 551 runs in the tournament so far. The opener is our recommendation for Delhi Capitals’ highest run scorer. With the ball, Tom Curran took 3-29 against CSK and is a strong choice for Delhi Capitals’ top wicket taker against KKR.
Shubman Gill followed up his successive half-centuries by top scoring with 29 from 18 balls in the win over RCB on Monday. He is our tip for KKR’s leading run scorer in this game. Sunil Narine was at times unplayable for the RCB batters and finished with figures of 4-21 in Sharjah. On the same pitch, we are backing Narine to be KKR’s top wicket taker against Delhi Capitals.
If Sunil Narine can put in a similar performance as on Monday when he hit 26 from 15 and took 4 wickets then he will go a long way to winning the game for KKR. He is our prediction for the Player of The Match Award in this Qualifier 2.

DC vs KKR T20 Match Prediction & Betting Tips, Qualifier IPL 2021
Wednesday’s Qualifier 2 brings together Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders at the Sharjah Cricket Stadium. Delhi Capitals won the group stage but have lost their last two games against Royal Challengers Bangalore and Chennai Super Kings. KKR finished 4th on net-run-rate but have won their last three games. Read on as we preview this match. The Qualifier 2 begins at 19:30 local time.

KKR are the momentum team in the tournament and now only two wins away from winning the 2021 IPL. They beat Delhi Capitals in their last meeting in late September and will fancy their chances against anyone.

Rishabh Pant’s team made one change ahead of the Qualifier 1 defeat to CSK on Sunday with middle-order batsman Ripal Patel replaced by England’s bowling all-rounder Tom Curran.

Who will win DC vs KKR IPL T20 Match?
There have been only three 50s in the last four games in Sharjah. Shubman Gill has hit two of them and will be expected to produce for KKR in this game again.
Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan and Rishabh Pant are our picks with the bat for Delhi Capitals. Dhawan has produced throughout the tournament with Shaw and Pant impressing on Sunday.
We are backing Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi and Venkatesh Iyer with the bat for KKR. Gill has top scored for KKR in each of their last three games.
We are recommending Avesh Khan, Kagiso Rabada and Tom Curran with the ball for Delhi Capitals. Curran came in from the cold to perform very well in the last match.
Our picks with the ball for KKR are Lockie Ferguson, Varun Chakravarthy and Sunil Narine. Ferguson and Narine were the destroyers with the ball in the win on Monday.
There has been some turnaround over the last few days so we now have Delhi Capitals as the underdogs and KKR as the favourites irrespective of their finishing positions in the group stage. With their familiarity with the conditions in Sharjah, we are backing KKR to win this match and go forward to the final.
