#1 Home ground advantage

Barring Chennai Super Kings, if there is one team who has excellent crowd support in their backyard, it is the Delhi Capitals. They have won countless matches in this ground and they know the conditions and the pitch of this ground like no other team.

It is a very small ground and Delhi's playing XI will be decided keeping that factor in mind. Also, the players have fond memories of playing in this ground. Prithvi Shaw slammed 99 in the last match and fell agonizingly short of his century. Rishabh Pant had also smashed his highest score in this ground itself and the local support and home conditions will be the biggest factor that will make Delhi unbeatable in the match.

Hyderabad aren't known to adapt to other conditions so easily and we saw that in the match against Kolkata.

With these conditions and players and Hyderabad's bowlers, especially Bhuvneshwar Kumar, looking woefully out of form, Delhi would back themselves to win this match and enter the ground as favorites.
