Delhi Capitals

Delhi Capitals are at the fifth spot on the points table. They played their last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad and won the match by 21 runs.

MS Dhoni returned as the skipper of CSK but that didn’t change the fortunes much and they are still not in the race for playoffs. The remaining matches will be played by them for boosting their pride for next season. On the other hand, the Delhi Capitals produced a descent performance against SRH but managed to win the game.
