It is going to be Rishabh Pant against Shreyas Iyer in today’s contest of the TATA IPL.

Both sides are pretty far away from the top 4 at the moment.

They will, however, ensure that they remain within touching distance of it.

Coming to their last fixtures, Delhi Capitals went down in a controversial match against the Rajasthan Royals while Kolkata Knight Riders had a close loss against Gujarat Titans.

Both teams have the best batsmen and bowlers when it comes to their playing XI.

For KKR, their mainstay has been Andre Russell who has been quite effective with the bat.

Delhi Capitals have the services of David Warner and Prithvi Shaw at the top.

Due to the spread of Covid-19 in their camp, the Delhi Capitals are missing the services of a few of their players like Tim Seifert and Mitchell Marsh.

But, they do have good news for today. Both Seifert and Marsh have recovered from Covid but their inclusion into the squad is still under question.
