With the games coming thick and fast, the Match 35 of IPL 2024 will see Delhi Capitals (DC) lock horns with Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on April 20th. This will be the first time DC will be playing at their permanent home ground this season, having played their initial home games in Visakhapatnam.
DC will be looking to capitalize on the familiar conditions and a win to climb the IPL 2024 points table. Currently sitting at number six with three wins and four losses, they’ve shown glimpses of brilliance, particularly in their recent victory against Gujarat Titans where their bowlers skittled them out for just 89 runs. However, consistency has been a concern, and they’ll need a complete performance against a resurgent SRH.

SRH, on the other hand, are on a roll. Placed fourth on the table, they’ve surprised everyone with their aggressive batting approach. Openers Abhishek Sharma and Travis Head have been in sublime form, consistently putting up big scores. Their bowling attack, spearheaded by the experienced Pat Cummins, has also been impressive.
Arun Jaitley Stadium Pitch Report
The Arun Jaitley Stadium has traditionally been known for its slow and low bounce, favoring spinners. However, in recent times, the pitch seems to have undergone a change, offering more assistance to batsmen. This could lead to a high-scoring encounter, especially considering the in-form batting lineups of both teams. Moreover, the short boundaries at either side will mean that there would be less margin for error for bowlers.
