DC vs KKR, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 41
The Delhi Capitals (DC) will face the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Match 41 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai on Thursday. Both IPL teams are in the midst of floundering campaigns and would like to get back on track as soon as possible.
Delhi are in seventh position in the IPL points table, having won three and lost four of their seven games. In their last match, they went down to the Rajasthan Royals (RR) in a high-scoring encounter. Chasing 223, they got as far as 207. The result was overshadowed by the no-ball controversy, but DC will need to put that behind them and start afresh.
KKR’s position is worse as they go in having lost four matches in a row in IPL 2022. In their last game, they had their chances to get the better of the Gujarat Titans (GT). However, an unsettled batting unit failed to chase down 157. Having begun the tournament as one of the stronger sides, Kolkata have been rather disappointing so far.
