DC vs KKR Dream11: Delhi Capitals take on Kolkata Knight Riders in the 41st match of the IPL 2022. Delhi Capitals are seventh in the points table with 3 wins and 4 losses in 7 matches. They have lost a few close games and have a very good NRR hence a win here would help them remain in contention for the playoffs. Kolkata on the other hand, after winning 3 of their first 4 matches have fallen down and lost their previous 4 matches which have kept them eighth in the table with 3 wins and 5 losses in 8 matches.

tournament name Points table: DC: 7, KKR: 8
The first four games at the Wankhede Stadium were won by teams chasing. But that has been turned upside down since, with the last five games all being won by teams defending a target. The choice to make at the toss could well prove to be a very difficult one for the captains, particularly for Pant who has now lost two games in succession at the venue after choosing to chase.
