Rahul Tripathi is KKR’s leading run scorer and top scored against CSK on Sunday. He is well worth backing as KKR’s highest run scorer against Delhi Capitals. Lockie Ferguson has taken at least 1 wicket in each of the games in the UAE. He is our tip for KKR’s top wicket-taker in this match.
Shikhar Dhawan hit only 8 from 8 balls on Saturday but he remains the leading run scorer in the tournament. He is our tip for Delhi Capitals’ highest run scorer in this match. With the ball, all of the Delhi Capitals bowlers took wickets on Saturday but we are backing Kagiso Rabada to be their top wicket taker against KKR.
Shikhar Dhawan is the second highest run scorer in IPL history and is currently on track to win his first Orange Cap. We are backing him to be the Player of The Match in this fixture.

Eoin Morgan elected to bat first in KKR’s defeat to Rajasthan Royals on Saturday. We are yet to see Rishabh Pant win a toss in the UAE. Our prediction is that KKR will bat first with Delhi in the field.
KKR vs DC Match Pitch Report
Both games in Sharjah have been relatively low-scoring compared to the other venues in the UAE. Any total above 165 should be sufficient for victory.
Weather Report
High of 37 degrees with clear skies during the game in Sharjah.
Read on for team previews, betting tips, latest odds, and match prediction for Kolkata Knight Riders vs Delhi Capitals, IPL 2021.
Such is the congestion from 4th to 7th that KKR are neither in a particularly strong position or indeed a worrying spot. They have been a whole lot more competitive since the tournament switched to the UAE and they will once again fancy their chances even against Delhi Capitals.
KKR Key Players
Rahul Tripathi - The top order batsman is the only KKR player to have gone beyond 300 runs in the 2021 IPL and has hit 119 runs in his last two innings.
Nitish Rana - The middle order batsman was the only shining light of KKR’s batsmen earlier in the tournament. He looked to have found his form again with 37 not out on Sunday.
Lockie Ferguson - The New Zealand bowler could not get a game in the earlier stage of the IPL but has been a constant threat and picked up 5 wickets in the matches in the UAE.
KKR Team Form
After two successive wins, KKR very nearly made it three in a row with a very closely fought defeat against CSK. KKR are playing good cricket.
KKR vs DC Dream11 Team Prediction, Captain, Vice Captain
Wicket-keeper
Rishabh Pant (10) will be our wicket-keeper. The Delhi Capitals wicket-keeper captain has hit 2 half-centuries in the tournament.
Batsmen
Shikhar Dhawan (10), Prithvi Shaw (9) and Rahul Tripathi (8.5) are our batsmen. Dhawan had an off-day on the weekend so expect him to respond with some crisp boundaries in this match.
All-rounders
Andre Russell (10.5), Axar Patel (9) and Lalit Yadav (8) will be our all-rounders. Russell is always the last player the opposition team want to come face to face with.
Bowlers
Kagiso Rabada (9), Avesh Khan (8.5), Varun Chakravarthy (8.5) and Prasidh Krishna (8.5) will be our bowlers. Rabada has really upped his game since the UAE leg of the competition began.
Captain/Vice-captain
Shikhar Dhawan will be captain, Kagiso Rabada his deputy
All Rounder:Andre Russell, Axar Patel, Lalit Yadav
Wicket Keeper:Rishabh Pant
Bowler:Kagiso Rabada (vc), Avesh Khan, Varun Chakravarthy, Prasidh Krishna
KKR vs DC Match Prediction
DC Team News & Playing 11
DC Team News
Lalit Yadav came in for Marcus Stoinis in the only change for Delhi Capitals in their last match. The squad is showing its depth and the changes are not preventing big wins for the franchise. We expect Delhi to keep the same starting XI in this match.
DC Key Players
Shikhar Dhawan - The opening batsman has an eye on the Orange Cap as well as taking the franchise all the way. He has struck 50 fours in the tournament.
Kagiso Rabada - The South African pace bowler struggled earlier in the tournament but he has taken 4 wickets in 2 games in the UAE.
Avesh Khan - The Indian bowler picked up 14 wickets during April and May and picked up his first UAE dismissal in the game on Saturday.
DC Team Form
Delhi Capitals have now won four games in a row taking in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Ahmedabad. They will be looking to add Sharjah to the list and make it five straight victories in IPL 2021.
Shubman Gill, Rahul Tripathi and Ventakash Iyer are our tips for the top batsmen for Kolkata Knight Riders. They bat at the top of the order and have all been in good form.
For Delhi Capitals, we recommend Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw and Shreyas Iyer. The openers missed out but Iyer hit 43 in the last match.
We are backing Lockie Ferguson, Varun Chakravarthy and Prasidh Krishna with the ball for Kolkata Knight Riders. Ferguson has been enjoying the conditions in the UAE.
Our tips for Delhi Capitals’s top bowlers are Kagiso Rabada, Avesh Khan and Anrich Nortje. All three delivered with the ball in the last game.
Both of these sides are in good form with KKR unrecognisable from earlier in the tournament and very unlucky to come away with a defeat against CSK. Delhi Capitals will be another tough assignment for Eoin Morgan’s side and we are predicting a close game but with the Capitals just about doing enough to win.
