Delhi Capitals have had a tough beginning in the 2024 IPL, dropping both initial matches. However, as players become accessible, the team is approaching their ideal XI for better balance. After two defeats on the road, they’ll kick off their home games at Visakhapatnam against Chennai Super Kings, aiming to secure their first win on Sunday.
The Super Kings have been dominant in their first two home games, but their performance in an away match will be intriguing. Despite this, considering the squads, the Capitals have noticeable weaknesses, potentially allowing them to play freely, akin to a nothing-to-lose scenario.
Pitch Report
The Visakhapatnam pitch promises excellent batting conditions, reminiscent of the Test series between India and England. Although the Super Kings seem to be on a roll, the Capitals’ limited depth in both batting and bowling might lead to a competitive match where they could put up a fight.
The Vizag Stadium is gearing up to host its maiden IPL 2024 match, with fans anticipating a balanced surface on Sunday. Renowned for its bowling-friendly conditions, the fresh pitch is anticipated to offer assistance to both batsmen and bowlers alike. Historically, teams winning the toss have opted to bowl first, given that only three times has the batting side emerged victorious in T20 matches at this venue.
