LSG
Marcus Stoinis is now unavailable.
While the Super Giants are aware of Warner’s threat at the top of the order, they may opt to use Ravi Bishnoi for an over early in the innings because of his success against the left-hander. Bishnoi has only bowled four deliveries to Warner in his career, yet he has twice dismissed him. Rishabh Pant has also been kept quiet by Bishnoi, who has only conceded 24 runs off 23 balls while dismissing him once.

Probable XI: KL Rahul (c), Deepak Hooda, Ayush Badoni, Krunal Pandya, Jason Holder, Quinton de Kock (wk), Manish Pandey, Evin Lewis, Andrew Tye/Dushmantha Chameera, Ravi Bishnoi, Avesh Khan.
Delhi Capitals

While the Super Giants will be knowledgeable of the threat that David Warner is capable of posing at the top order, LSG could deploy Ravi Bishnoi for a spell early in the innings. He has had good success against David Warner.
Delhi could capitalize on Quinton de Kock’s vulnerability against spinners and put Kuldeep Yadav and Lalit Yadav for the attack.
Probable XI: Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant (c & wk), Lalit Yadav, Rovman Powell, Shardul Thakur, Axar Patel, David Warner, Mandeep Singh Kuldeep Yadav, Anrich Nortje, Mustafizur Rahman
