Winless in their last three, will KKR finally get a ‘W’ on the board?

IPL 2025 has been a season of very fine margins, and nothing encapsulates that more than the league position of Delhi Capitals (DC), who have gone from outright table toppers to fourth spot in the blink of an eye. The race for the top four is heating up, and the Capitals will need to beat Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) on April 29 (Tuesday) to give themselves the best chance of finishing in the top two.

DC vs KKR Match Prediction

Even though KKR lead the head-to-head, DC will be overwhelming favourites heading into Tuesday’s clash. KKR have been woeful this season while DC have been competitive even in the three games they’ve lost. Form points towards an easy win for DC.


DC vs KKR Best Batter

You cannot look beyond KL Rahul, who already has 364 runs this season at an average of over 60. The 15 against MI is pretty much Rahul’s *only* failure so far this season.


DC vs KKR Best Bowler

Kuldeep Yadav has been one of the best spinners in IPL 2025, but there’s even more reason to back him against KKR. Against his former team, Kuldeep has taken 10 wickets in just four matches at an average of 9.8. 


DC vs KKR, Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report

The Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi was an absolute belter in IPL 2024, but the same cannot be said for this season. We’ve had low and slow surfaces in general, and 200 has been passed just once. 188 has been defended, while on Sunday, RCB had to really work hard to chase even a middling total like 163. Expect a surface that will offer plenty of grip for the spinners and will be on the slower side in general.


DC vs KKR, Delhi Weather Report

It’s going to be a really hot evening in Delhi, with temperatures close to the 30-degree mark even after 7 PM, but the good news is that we should get a full game as there is no chance of rain according to both Google and Accuweather.
