Kolkata Knight Riders vs Delhi Capitals Prediction & Betting Tips 2023
Sunil Narine has taken IPL by storm this season as he is the top run scorer and top wicket taker for Kolkata Knight Riders this season. In the last three games at home, Narine has scored 109, 10 and 71 which showcases his batting prowess. We believe Narine would continue his dominance and would score well in the upcoming game.
Kolkata Knight Riders have been dominant at home this season. In four of the five matches we have seen teams score over 400 runs. Considering the fire power both sides have we expect this to be a high scoring game and total runs in this fixture would be extremely high.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Delhi Capitals Betting Odds
Delhi Capitals to have a better opening partnership than Kolkata Knight Riders
Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders head into this game in what seems like a four pointer as both sides are level on points on the points table. Both teams have showcased their scoring prowess in the last few games which makes this game a great watch for the neutrals. KKR openers have dominated the proceedings in this campaign as they have 56 and 138 runs opening stand in the last two matches and have a better opening partnership in three of the last four games. On the other hand with David Warner and Prithvi Shaw expected to be sidelined, we expect DC to struggle in the opening department which makes us believe KKR would have a better opening partnership in the upcoming game and it is a great opportunity to make some quick financial gains.

Kolkata Knight Riders vs Delhi Capitals Kings Top Batters
Phillip Salt to be Kolkata Knight Riders’ top batter
It's fair to say Sunil Narine has taken all the headlines with his domination with bat and ball. Phillip Salt has been sensational for KKR this season and has made a big difference this season. In the last four home games, Salt has scored 89, 10, 48 and 75 which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Rishabh Pant to be Delhi Capitals’ top batter
This has been of the easiest choice as Rishabh Pant has single handedly led his side to four wins in the last five games. In the last three home matches, Pant has scored 44, 88 and 29 and with 371 runs, Pant is the leading run scorer for DC which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Kolkata Knight Riders vs Delhi Capitals Top Team Bowlers
Sunil Narine to be Kolkata Knight Riders’ top bowler
Sunil Narine has been sensational for KKR this season and if KKR all the way he would be the front runner of MVP this season. Sunil Narine has been one of the most consistent players for KKR this season and with ten wickets he is the leading wicket taker thus far which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
Kuldeep Yadav to be Delhi Capitals’s top bowler
Even though Kuldeep Yadav did not have a great game in the last outing we are still going to stick with him once again, he has been sensational for DC and has been the most consistent bowler thus far. At home he has taken six wickets in the last three games which makes him our top pick in the upcoming game.
