Wicket-Keeper
D.Karthik (8.5 Cr) has been efficiant behind the stumps but got his first batting chance in the last match against CSK where he scored 26 (11) with a strike rate of 236 that can repeat this match against a strong DC bowling lineup.
R.Pant (10 Cr) has been a crucial contributor in the last 2 matches with his batting capabilities and wicket-keeping skills that should continue in this match.
Batsman
V.Iyer (8.5 Cr) is the opening batsman for KKR and has managed to stay in good form his last match against CSK couldn’t reflect his best side but he will look to bounce back in this match.
R.Tripathi (8.5 Cr) got his first opportunity to bat against MI where he scored the game-changing 74 runs followed by his 45 runs against CSK in the last match shows his strong fighting spirit.
