Mad Max 3 had the famous line “Two men enter….one man leaves.” Such a sentence could not be any truer for the Delhi Capitals and Kolkata Knights Riders when they square off Wednesday night (local time) at Sharjah Cricket Ground, with the victor earning the right to take on the Chennai Super Kings Friday to determine the champions of IPL2021.

Not only are the Delhi batsmen ranked last this year for hitting 6s during the middle and death overs (7-20) averaging just 2.74 per match, but their death bowling (overs 16-20) is also ranked last conceding 48.8 runs per game. Kagiso Rabada’s four straight matches without a wicket is key to those struggles.

Outside of CSK, it would be fair to say that KKR have been the hottest team in the UAE leg of this year’s tournament having won six of their eight contests, a form-line that has been secured despite captain Eoin Morgan hitting just 37 runs across those eight matches.
