Delhi Capitals host Gujarat Titans in the 14th match of IPL 2026 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on 8 April.
Delhi have won both of their opening games, beating Lucknow Super Giants and then Mumbai Indians by six wickets after restricting them to 162 for 6. Sameer Rizvi has been the star, with two half-centuries and 160 runs without being dismissed, including an unbeaten 90 off 51 balls against Mumbai. Pathum Nissanka made 44 off 30 in that game, while KL Rahul is yet to fire this season; last year he scored 539 runs at an average of 54. T Natarajan, Lungi Ngidi and Mukesh Kumar have shared 10 wickets, and captain Axar Patel has been economical.
Gujarat have lost both games, to Punjab Kings and then to Rajasthan Royals by six runs while chasing 211. Sai Sudharsan scored 73 off 44 in the latest loss and averages 94 against Delhi in five matches. Shubman Gill missed that game with back spasms but is expected back. Prasidh Krishna has four wickets, and Rashid Khan, Washington Sundar, Kagiso Rabada and Mohammed Siraj give the bowling depth.
One duel to watch is Rabada against Rahul, who has been dismissed by him three times in 12 matches. We pick Delhi Capitals.
