Here are the three key player battles to watch out for during the DC vs MI match:
1) Rohit Sharma vs Khaleel Ahmed
Rohit Sharma is batting freely and likes to make hefty runs in the first six overs. Khaleel Ahmed, on the other hand can swing the ball in both directions. Rohit has a weakness against the left-arm pacers, so he needs to be calm and composed against Khaleel. Therefore, this battle between the two will set the tone for the upcoming match between DC and MI.
2) Rishabh Pant vs Jasprit Bumrah
Rishabh Pant is having a fantastic season and has played a quick-fire 88 runs knock against Gujarat Titans in the last game. He will again try to replicate the same, but scoring runs against Jasprit Bumrah will be a certain challenge to him. Bumrah has dismissed him six times. Therefore, it will be interesting to see that who gets upper hand in this battle.
3) Jake Fraser-McGurk vs Gerald Coetzee
Jake Fraser-McGurk vs Gerald Coetzee will surely be a battle to watch out in the DC vs MI match. Jake has been doing incredible well for DC and his aggressive approach has helped Delhi Capitals too.
