Delhi Capitals haven't had the best start to the 2024 edition of the IPL having lost both their games so far but with the franchise reaching closer to their best XI in terms of balance with players starting to be available, there are some good things in store. Having lost both their away games, the Capitals will begin their home leg at their adopted home ground in Visakhapatnam against a high-flying Chennai Super Kings (CSK) outfit and will hope to open their account on Sunday.
The Super Kings, on the other hand, are coming off bulldozing oppositions in the first two games at home and it will be interesting to see how they go about their business in an away game. However, just going by the squads, the Capitals have big holes in their line-up and it might allow them to go out and express themselves, similar to being in a nothing-to-loose situation.
The Visakhapatnam surface is set to be great for batting just like the Test series between India and England. While all is going too well for the Super Kings, the Capitals lack depth in both batting and bowling and it will not be a surprise if the Men in Blue work on the fight.
