DC vs SRH: The tournament is approaching its business end as teams start looking at all the permutations available with respect to qualification. While the Sunrisers Hyderabad is a little well placed, the Delhi Capitals will feel that they need to win each of their remaining games if they are to go through to the next round.
Both teams are coming off losses and both teams have a similar mindset coming into the game. They possess strong bowling attacks, and decent batting line-ups with a couple of players who are exceptional and expected to do the job for the team.
Match: DC vs SRH
Date: 5th May 2022
Time: 7:30 PM IST
Venue: Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai
The weather is clear for the DC vs SRH fixture with no rain in prospect throughout the game.
All the surfaces this season are showing signs of wear and Brabourne is no different. The last game though saw a decent score made with a score of 170 odd defended in the final over, indicating that the surface is not completely unplayable. Batting first is still a better option though, despite dew, due to the slowness on offer.

David Warner
David Warner, the Hyderabad hero, is up against the Sunrisers Hyderabad, a side he has seen grow and a side he has led strongly over the years as he grew into an IPL legend. While Warner downplayed any hype regarding the opposition, the encounter still promises to be entertaining as Warner goes up against his old side.
Nicholas Pooran
The game was almost out of reach, but Nicholas Pooran played a blinder to bring Sunrisers into a situation where they could believe that a win was achievable. Although he couldn’t take his team to a win, the knock is likely to give him a lot of confidence and there could be some better performances coming from him in the upcoming games.
Both teams come into the game with strong bowling line-ups and shaky batting line-ups. There has been some good batting performances though, from both, but looking at the individual talent on offer, the Delhi Capitals may have a slight edge in the game.
Match Prediction: DC will win the match.
