KKR vs DC, IPL Toss Result: Today's match players list, teams & umpires for Match 19
The Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will face the Delhi Capitals (DC) in Match 19 of the 2022 Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday. According to the IPL 2022 schedule, this will be the day game of the double-header. Despite finding themselves in tricky situations in recent matches, Kolkata are on top of the IPL 2022 points table. They have won three of their four matches so far.
In contrast, Delhi’s IPL 2022 campaign has gone a bit off-track after a bright start against the Mumbai Indians (MI). They have succumbed to defeat in their last two matches, coming up with rather underwhelming performances. DC will have to plug a few leaks against Kolkata.
In their last match, Kolkata got the better of Mumbai by five wickets. It needed a terrific batting effort from Pat Cummins (56* off 15) to lift the side after a poor start. There was no such luck for Delhi as they were below par with the bat against LSG and did not produce anything exceptional with the ball either. Rishabh Pant’s tactics as captain will also be under the scanner.
