Delhi Capitals Predicted XI vs Rajasthan Royals, IPL 2023: Who Will Take Mitchell Marsh's Place?

Eyeing their first win of the season, the David Warner-led Delhi Capitals take on Sanju Samson's Rajasthan Royals in an Indian Premier League (IPL) match at the Barsapara Stadium in Guwahati. DC lost to Lucknow Super Giants by 50 runs in their first game, before going down against Gujarat Titans at home earlier this week. Already without the services of Rishabh Pant, DC will miss the presence of star all-rounder Mitchell Marsh who has flown back to Australia for a week for his wedding. DC's batting has been battered and bruised by raw pace in back-to-back matches, which is likely to find some breathing space on a featherbed in Guwahati.

"He Has A Lot Of Self-belief": Ex-India Opener In Awe Of KKR Spinner Suyash Sharma

Kolkata Knight Riders bowler Suyash Sharma had a memorable IPL debut as he outplayed the Royal Challengers Bangalore batters with his spin at the Eden Gardens on Thursday. The leggie picked up the prized wickets of pinch-hitter Dinesh Karthik, Anuj Rawat, and tail-ender Karn Sharma as KKR thrashed Faf du Plessis' side by 81 runs. Suyash ended his quota of four overs with figures of 3 for 30. The confidence was clearly visible as the leg-spinner confidently dealt with the RCB batters on his debut.

With Wedding Bells Ringing, Delhi Capitals Star Mitchell Marsh To Fly Back Home, Miss Few Games

Delhi Capitals, already reeling at the bottom half of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 standings, are set to lose overseas star Mitchell Marsh for a few games. In an update, the franchise's bowling coach James Hopes revealed that Marsh will be returning home to get married. The personal event, however, will not see the Australian star miss the remainder of the campaign. After wrapping up the nuptials, the all-rounder will return to join the Capitals for the 16th edition of the league.

Asked To Score Century In Next Game, How Virat Kohli Taught 'MS Dhoni Fan' A Life Lesson

Star India and Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) batter Virat Kohli is regarded by many as the best batter of his generation. Kohli, who caught the limelight after leading India to the U-19 World Cup title in 2008, made his India debut in 2009 and the rest is history. In a recent appearance on the RCB podcast, Kohli revealed a funny interaction with a fan in 2014 when he was on a flight with the Indian team from Delhi to Kochi. Kohli recalled that the fan asked him to score a century in the next game.

Beating Politics, How 'Substitute' Suyash Made 'Impact' In IPL Amid Father's Cancer Battle

Hailing from a lower middle-class background with no 'Godfather' in a corrupt cricket environment, Suyash Sharma is that quintessential Delhi cricketer, who is not a product of the system. In fact, he has got success despite the system. Not only he had to struggle due to lack of backing, he also had to deal with the stress related to the illness of his father who is fighting the dreaded cancer disease.

Lucknow Super Giants Predicted XI vs SunRisers Hyderabad, IPL 2023: Who Will Make Way For Quinton De Kock?

Lucknow Super Giants will take on SunRisers Hyderabad in their next IPL 2023 match on Friday at the Ekana Cricket Stadium in Lucknow. The KL Rahul-led side began its campaign with a thumping 50-run victory over Delhi Capitals. It was followed by a 12-run defeat against Chennai Super Kings, in a massive run-chase of 218. So far, West Indies star Kyle Mayers has been impressive with the bat as he smashed half-centuries in both outings. As South Africa wicketkeeper-batter Quinton de Kock is back in the camp, a door will be closed either for Mayers or Australia all-rounder Marcus Stoinis.

"Don't Want To Be Shouting, Screaming...": Eoin Morgan, Chris Gayle, Graeme Swann Discuss Flipside Of IPL Strategic Timeouts

It was 2009 when strategic time-outs were introduced in the IPL for the first time. Originally intended as a time to huddle together and re-group on game strategy during an inning, time-outs have now become the mainstay of how IPL sides plan their run chases or target defence mid-innings. Often, strategic time-outs have also been catalysts to start or stop a side's momentum during innings, eventually influencing match outcomes.

Delhi Capitals Aim For Improved Batting Show Against Rajasthan Royals

Battered and bruised by raw pace in back-to-back matches, Delhi Capitals' batting unit is likely to find some breathing space on a featherbed when the side takes on Rajasthan Royals in an afternoon IPL match, on Saturday. Mark Wood and Alzarri Joseph have scarred the likes of Prithvi Shaw and Sarfaraz Khan in DC's line-up in the first two games. And when these talented but low on confidence willow wielders face an attack comprising Trent Boult, KM Asif and Jason Holder, they would have to negotiate speed in mid 130 kmph, which is right up their alley.
