Former Indian opener Aakash Chopra has made his predictions for the Delhi Capitals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad clash on Wednesday night in Dubai. This will be the third game at this venue with the last match between Punjab Kings and Rajasthan Royals turning out to be a last-ball finish. Both teams are placed on opposite ends of the points table ahead of the crucial tie. DC are placed second on the points table while SRH is at the bottom. 

Predicting the winner between the two teams Aakash Chopra spoke about the strengths and weaknesses of both teams heading into the contest. 

I AM Going To Go With Delhi Capitals: Aakash Chopra

“I’m going with Delhi to win this match. It’s because my heart lies in Delhi and also due to SRH’s poor form in the tournament. If Hyderabad loses one more game, then that’s about it. Then SRH’s chances will come down to mathematical calculations. So SRH will be under pressure to perform well,” Chopra was quoted as saying on his official YouTube channel.

Shreyas Iyer is back for the Delhi Capitals. He missed the first leg due to a shoulder injury. Meanwhile, it will be interesting for SRH to see if David Warner makes the playing XI. He was not only removed as the captain but also dropped from the playing XI in the first half.

Aakash Chopra also chose the playing Xi for the respective teams ahead of this crucial match. Here is how they look like. 

 Predicted DC Playing XI: Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw, Rishabh Pant (c and wk), Shreyas Iyer, Shimron Hetmyer, Marcus Stoinis, Axar Patel, Ravichandran Ashwin, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Avesh Khan

Predicted SRH Playing XI: David Warner, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Manish Pandey, Kane Williamson (c), Priyam Garg/Abhishek Sharma, Abdul Samad/Vijay Shankar, Jason Holder, Rashid Khan, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Sandeep Sharma, T Natarajan
