Death overs bowling comparison between GT and DC

While the Delhi Capitals have leaked runs at 13.8 runs per over in the final five, their competitors have been very miserly. The Gujarat Titans have conceded at only 9.2 runs per over. When it comes to picking wickets in death overs in IPL 2024, Gujarat has picked 14 in comparison to Delhi's nine.

Umesh Yadav vs David Warner a key battle to look out for

 

David Warner has generally had the better of Indian pacers in T20s, but Gujarat's Umesh Yadav is one such bowler who has always troubled the Capitals batter. In 11 innings that Warner has played against Umesh, he has scored 99 runs in 68 balls at a strike rate of 145.88 but has also been dismissed on five occasions and his average is a lowly 19.8.

Why has Jake Fraser-McGurk been a blessing in disguise for the Capitals?

 

It would be surprising to know that the 22-year-old tearaway Australian hitter was not even in the scheme of things for the Capitals and came in as a replacement for pacer Lungi Ngidi.
