DC are in form, at home and facing a side that cannot find a settled middle order. That is enough to back them at the price.

GT lead the all-time series 4-3 including a 2-1 record in Delhi, and their top three of Shubman Gill, Sai Sudharsan and Jos Buttler chased down totals of 204 and 200 against DC last season without their middle order needing to do a thing.

But both GT losses this season have followed the same pattern, a strong start from the top three followed by a complete collapse through the middle, with none of Glenn Phillips, Washington Sundar, Shahrukh Khan or Rahul Tewatia reaching 25 in either game. Gill returns from injury which helps, but the middle-order problem remains unsolved.

DC meanwhile have been clinical under pressure, winning both games despite their top three averaging just 10.2 combined. Sameer Rizvi has been the difference, making 70 not out and 90 in back-to-back games as impact sub. This pitch has a death-overs run rate of 12.67 in recent IPL matches, which suits DC’s batting depth far more than GT’s current fragility.

Stick with the home side.

As mentioned, Rizvi has scores of 70 not out and 90 in his first two innings of IPL 2026, both as impact sub coming in under pressure. With another big performance he could become the first player to win four consecutive Player of the Match awards in IPL history. GT’s bowling has been expensive all season and Rizvi is in the kind of form that is very hard to stop.

Kuldeep is DC’s trump card on this surface and GT’s middle order has struggled badly against spin all season. Buttler’s vulnerability against left-arm wrist spin sets up a telling match-up, and Rashid Khan has 11 wickets against DC in this fixture which means Kuldeep needs to be equally dangerous at the other end. Good price for the best spinner in the contest.
