The final leg of IPL 2020's league phase commences this weekend as all eight teams aim to secure playoff berths.
The Delhi Capitals are leading the race at the moment, with 14 points in ten matches. Shreyas Iyer and co. are likely to finish in the top 2, and they have performed brilliantly in IPL 2020 so far. The Capitals will cross paths with the Kolkata Knight Riders in their eleventh game of the season.
When these two teams clashed earlier in IPL 2020, the Delhi-based franchise posted a mammoth score of 228/4. Captain Iyer led the team from the front with an epic knock of 88*, while opening batsman Prithvi Shaw also slammed a half-century.
The Knight Riders huffed and puffed, but they eventually fell short by 18 runs. The reverse fixture between KKR and DC will happen in Abu Dhabi, and here's a look at the pitch report and weather conditions for this match.
KKR vs DC pitch report
In the last match at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium, the Royal Challengers Bangalore decimated the Kolkata Knight Riders. The Eoin Morgan-led outfit could score only 84 in the first innings, as they registered the lowest 20-over score in IPL history.
