Naib to Replace Out-Of-Form Anrich Nortje? Delhi Capitals' Probable XI For IPL 2024 Vs MI

Delhi Capitals are staging quite the comeback from their initial struggles in IPL 2024. With four wins under their belt, they've managed to climb up to the 6th position on the table. 

The season-changing moment for them were the inclusion of Jake Fraser-McGurk, injecting some fresh energy into the team, and the resurgence of their captain, Rishabh Pant, finding his form again. Their reverse fixture against Mumbai Indians at Arun Jaitley Stadium will be a significant test for DC. 

Mumbai Indians are going through a rough patch, but they're famous for making comebacks, so it'll be intriguing to see how Delhi Capitals measure up against them. With their recent momentum, let's hope they can continue their winning streak and secure another victory tomorrow at their home. 

Years ago, when it came to a choice between keeping either Rabada or Nortje ahead of the auctions, DC opted for Nortje due to recency bias. However, Nortje missed the entire season last year and is in poor form this season.  In almost every game, he has conceded a lot of runs. When Mumbai Indians and Delhi Capitals played last time, Romario Shepherd murdered Nortje, scoring 32 runs in the last over.

The question arises: will Ponting and Pant finally decide to bench him, especially as Afghan allrounder Gulbadin Naib came in for injured Marsh and replacements have worked for Delhi, with Fraser coming in for Marsh and Shai Hope playing for Warner.

Delhi Capitals face an important decision as they aim to enhance their playoff qualification prospects.
