Delhi Capitals vs Kolkata Knight Riders (DCvKKR): The 41th match of IPL 2022 will be played between DC vs KKR, the match will start at 07:30 PM IST on 28 April 2022 at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai, India
Team winner Prediction:
Key Points:
- The performance of Andre Russel is always significant for the fortunes of Kolkata Knight Riders. His contribution can tilt a close game in KKR’s favor.
- Generally speaking, both these teams are evenly matched. So, one or two instances of let-downs from either side can decide the outcome of the match.
- The dew factor may have a say later in the match and the team fielding second will have face wet hands on the field. This can influence the performance of the bowlers, especially spinners.
DC vs KKR Analysis:
Kolkata Knight Riders came into conflict after four consecutive defeats against Delhi Capitals. His absurd run against DC earlier this month cost him 215 runs after a disappointing bowling performance. Till then KKR were at the top of the points table with three wins from four matches. That game exposed weaknesses in the bowling which has since become a major concern.
Frontline bowlers like Pat Cummins and Varun Chakraborty have poor form, at its core, they have too many tough questions to answer, and not ready-enough replacements on the other front. If players like Andre Russell and Aaron Finch start delivering on the promises made in recent matches, their campaign could turn out to be different. But they will need more to come together soon enough to make any good changes in the rapidly derailing season.
His next opportunity comes against a team that has been rocked by COVID, and key members of his squad are hurt. DC’s unstable eleven has caused a flurry of results that read – W, L, L, W, L, W, L. The resultant pressure of such runs came to a head in his final outing when much was directed towards the frustrated umpiring.

Pitch and Weather Conditions:
The pitch on offer at the Wankhede Stadium is always full of runs. You get an even bounce on the wicket and it is likely to remain true for the entire duration of the match. The short boundaries make scoring runs even easier for the batters. Another significant aspect is the due factor in Mumbai. Due to this reason alone, many teams are likely to opt for fielding first after winning the toss. The outfield on offer at the Wankhede Stadium is extremely fast and you can pretty much expect high-scoring games at this venue.
