Delhi Capitals (DC), the only side yet to win a match in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 season, will face off against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in match no. 28 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi on Thursday. DC have lost their first five matches of this season, for the first time since the IPL 2013 campaign where they had finished last on the points table.

David Warner’s side has been severely hampered by the absence of regular skipper Rishabh Pant, who is ruled out of the entire season due to injuries suffered in a road accident late last year. They will not find it easy to beat Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan-owned KKR, who have posted some remarkable wins this season.


Rinku Singh is the star of KKR this season, smashing five successive sixes in a match against defending champions Gujarat Titans to lift his side to a win. KKR also hold the edge in head-to-head matches between the two sides, having won 16 out of the 30 matches in the past while DC have won 14 times.


KKR skipper Nitish Rana plays for Delhi in first-class cricket and knows the conditions in Delhi quite well. But can Warner’s team turn their form around and provide DC their first win of the season?
