Delhi Capitals are most probably out of the playoff race of the Indian Premier League 2023. DC has only won just 2 games in 8 games. They have been suffering for the lack of Indian batting talents in their lineup and skipper, David Warner’s disappointing form with the bat. In their previous game against Sunrisers Hyderabad, they lost Warner for a duck. For the second wicket, Mitchell Marsh and Philip Salt shared a 112-run stand and needed just 86 runs in just 52 balls when Salt got dismissed. Their Indian middle order failed once again as they lost the game.
