Rishabh Pant, the skipper of Delhi Capitals has won an important toss at the Narendra Modi Stadium against the home team, Gujarat Titans and has decided to bowl first.

Delhi Capitals will be missing the services of David Warner in this game due to a finger injury while GT have made three changes with Saha and David Miller back in the XI. Sandeep Warrier is also making his debut for GT in place of Umesh Yadav and the home team surely looks a strong unit with their big guns back for this important game.

Matthew Wade, Vijay Shankar have been dropped along with Umesh Yadav while DC are playing only three overseas players with Sumit Kumar replacing David Warner.


Here are the playing XIs of both the sides -

Delhi Capitals: Prithvi Shaw, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Shai Hope, Rishabh Pant (c and wk), Tristan Stubbs, Axar Patel, Sumit Kumar, Kuldeep Yadav, Ishant Sharma, Khaleel Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar.

Gujarat Titans: Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Shubman Gill (c), B Sai Sudharsan, David Miller, Abhinav Manohar, Rahul Tewatia, Rashid Khan, Mohit Sharma, Noor Ahmad, Spencer Johnson, Sandeep Warrier.

Impact Substitutes: 

Gujarat Titans: Darshan Nalkande, Shahrukh Khan, R Sai Kishore, Manav Suthar, Sharath BR.

Delhi Capitals: Abhisek Porel, Lalit Yadav, Praveen Dubey, Kumar Kushagra, Lizaad Williams

Abishek Porel will most likely come in as an Impact Player in the second half while for GT, Darshan Nalkande might come in when GT bowl. This is a fresh pitch and no IPL matches have been played on this turf since the 2022 season, so it would be interesting to see how the surface behaves at Ahmedabad today.

Both teams will be itching to get those two crucial points from this game and it promises to be a cracking encounter with two young captains going head-to-head against each other.
