DC Vs CSK Preview: Chennai Super Kings defeated DC by 27-runs in their meet-up earlier this season.

The Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi is set to host Match No. 67th of the Indian Premier League 2023, featuring a clash between the Delhi Capitals and the Chennai Super Kings.

Having emerged victorious in their recent encounter against PBKS, DC have achieved only 5 wins out of the 13 matches played thus far. Looking ahead to their upcoming match against CSK, DC is filled with determination to secure a victory. Despite already being eliminated from the tournament, they possess a golden opportunity to shatter CSK's hopes by defeating them.

CSK's recent match ended in disappointment as they suffered a 7-wicket defeat against KKR. This result brings their overall record to 7 wins out of 13 matches, accumulating a total of 15 points. However, CSK remains undeterred as they prepare to face DC in their upcoming match, a team they have previously defeated this season. Their determination to secure another victory is fueled by the knowledge that it will guarantee their qualification for the playoffs.

In a previous encounter this season, CSK emerged victorious over DC by a margin of 27 runs. Cameo’s from CSK's middle and lower-middle order batsmen, including an explosive cameo by MS Dhoni, played a crucial role in setting a competitive total of 167/8. DC faced a daunting task of chasing 168 runs, but their innings got off to a shaky start with David Warner's early dismissal. Despite some attacking shots from Phil Salt and Rilee Rossouw, DC struggled to maintain momentum. Matheesha Pathirana's impressive bowling performance, supported by disciplined bowling from the CSK team, restricted DC to 140/8.
