    IPL 2023, DC vs KKR: Pitch report (Arun Jaitley Stadium)

    What's the story

    Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knight Riders will cross swords in match number 28 of the 2023 Indian Premier League (IPL) season.

    Delhi's Arun Jaitley Stadium will host this affair on April 20.

    The Capitals are yet to register their first points this season, having lost five in a row.

    Meanwhile, KKR have two wins in five games. Here is the pitch report.

    Conditions 

    How the pitch behaves here

    With the boundaries being on the shorter side, bowlers cannot afford to miss their mark much.

    However, spinners can be effective in the middle overs as the track here mostly remains low and slow.

    Fast bowlers might get some movement with the new ball.

    As the dew factor might come into play, the toss-winning skipper is likely to choose bowling first.
