Delhi Capitals (DC) and Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) will be going head-to-head for match 16 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season. DC have just won their first match in the IPL 2024 season and that too against the defending champions Chennai Super Kings (CSK). Both the batting and bowling lineups of the team are finding some form and performing up to the mark against the defending champions. DC's captain Rishabh Pant came up with a blistering half-century after 465 days. Along with Pant, David Warner also scored a half-century and Prithvi Shaw played an important innings of 43 runs.

DC's bowling unit performed very well as they restricted CSK from reaching the target. Khaleel Ahmed bowled beautifully and even delivered a maiden over which is rare to see in this game format. Anrich Nortje's struggles continue but surely will be looking to make a comeback against KKR. Other bowlers in the team played their part well and had a crucial hand in winning the first match for DC in IPL 2024.

KKR on the other hand are looking in top form as their batters are doing really well and the bowling lineup is catching up too. The opening pair of Phil Salt and Sunil Narine is delivering as expected. As the opening batsmen lay the base the rest of the batting lineup feels confident going ahead in the match. Mitchell Starc struggled in the game against Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) but Andre Russel and Harshit Rana always find a way to get a wicket or two.
