The surface is flat, with minimal assistance for spinners or seamers once the new ball loses its shine.

Early on, pacers might extract a hint of swing under the lights, but it rarely lasts beyond the first few overs. With short boundaries and a quick outfield, batters will enjoy their time in the middle if they survive the powerplay.

The official pitch report will be broadcast live from the venue before the toss at 7:00 PM IST.

Batting first, Delhi posted an imposing 199/3, largely thanks to KL Rahul’s unbeaten 112 off 65 balls. He was quite superb right from the start, opening for the first time this season.

Tristan Stubbs and Abishek Porel chipped in with handy cameos, but DC's total proved insufficient on a flat Delhi deck.

In reply, Gujarat's opening pair of Sai Sudharsan and Shubman Gill made a mockery of the chase. The duo put together an unbroken stand of 205 runs, with Sudharsan scoring a sublime 108* and Gill narrowly missing his century with 95*.

The Capitals’ bowlers had no answers, and GT sealed the win in just 19 overs to qualify for the playoffs.
