IPL 2020 Match 2 – DC vs KXIP Fantasy Preview

The much awaited 2020 season of the Indian Premier League is finally here and in Match 1, we have last year’s finalists Mumbai Indians playing Chennai Super Kings. You can read our MI vs CSK fantasy preview here while you can also check out our MI vs CSK betting preview here. The league will see just a game each day with 2 matches being played on weekends only!

Match 2 will see the young and inexperienced but supremely talented Delhi Capitals in action as they take on a top heavy Kings XI Punjab team. We feel the former may be a better bet because these aren’t high scoring grounds as you would see in India. Keep reading for our complete PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234) fantasy preview of the DC vs KXIP game…

Delhi Capitals

This side has a better bowling attack and on a pitch were slower bowlers will have assistance, so I’m tempted to pick Nepal spinner Sandeep Lamichhane in my DC vs KXIP fantasy team today. The 20-year old picked 12 wickets in 11 games in CPL 2020! Another spinner to watch out for is Amit Mishra who has 157 career IPL wickets and has the chance to top that IPL list, with Malinga missing. We believe Ishant Sharma picked up an injury during training!

The likes of Stoinis, Sams and Carey will arrive late after their England tour and we’re not sure of whether they’ll be ready in time for the first game. With 3 fifties and a century in his last 8 international games for India, captain Shreyas Iyer is one to watch out for in IPL 2020! Like him, keep an eye out for Shimron Hetmyer who began CLP 2020 with a couple of big scores and we think he can repeat the same here!

Kings XI Punjab

Talking about overseas players, we have a couple of Caribbean batsmen in Chris Gayle and Nicholas Pooran in KXIP who are almost certain starters today. Pooran is super talented and could light up this IPL after a recent century in the CPL 2020 while Gayle hasn’t played professional cricket since Jan this year! Mujeeb Ur Rahman is another certain pick while we’re unsure of who will be picked between Neesham and Maxwell!

Considering there’s the spin influence in UAE, we think picking Ravi Bishnoi in your PlayerzPot (Use Code “READ1234) fantasy team is a smart choice as he’s bound to make his IPL debut this tournament, if not today, picking 17 wickets in 6 games in the 2020 U-19 World Cup. Mohammed Shami is fitter than he’s ever been in the past and he’s someone w can’t leave out either!
