This is a huge moment for Delhi Capitals since the team had entered an IPL Final for the first time since its inception. The team led by Shreyas Iyer has performed well throughout the tournament and has stood at the second position on the points table right below the Mumbai Indians by the end of Leagues. Even after entering the playoffs, DC has experienced a loss against Mumbai Indians in the Qualifier-1 but regained its momentum with the Qualifier-2 by winning against SRH.
Delhi Capitals comprises of players like Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw, Ajinkya Rahane, Rishabh Pant, Marcus Stoinis, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, etc. Among these, Shikhar Dhawan and Shreyas Iyer are among the highest run scorers and Kagiso Rabada is the highest wicket-taker of the tournament followed closely by Anrich Nortje. All the players have been consistent throughout the tournament and will be of utmost significance in the Final.
The team had lost all three matches against Mumbai Indians in the leagues and the Qualifier-1. Given this factor, one can expect that the team fights to the death for a victory in the final. But the fact that the losses might have had an effect on the team’s morale cannot be ignored. DC secured a great victory over SRH in the Qualifier-2 to reach the finals. If the team continued with the same confidence in the final against Mumbai Indians, there is a chance that Delhi Capitals will make history tonight.
Mumbai Indians, the giants of IPL are in the finals for the sixth time over the course of IPL 2020. The team had secured the trophy four times since the beginning of IPL tournaments and are currently the table toppers in IPL 2020. Mumbai Indians under the leadership of Rohit Sharma had performed extremely well in the IPL 2020. The team had managed to climb to the top of the points table early on and stay there till the end of the leagues.
It must be emphasized that the Mumbai Indians team packs a wealth of experience of playing in the finals, unlike the Delhi Capitals. Players like Quinton de Kock, Ishan Kishan, Surya Kumar has consistently well-performing players who are the greatest assets. Bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah and Trent Boult are some of the most dangerous bowlers of death overs and are extremely economical. Their experience in international matches is a huge asset to the team and is something the opposition must be wary of.
As mentioned before, the team faced Delhi Capitals thrice in the tournament and had managed to secure a victory all three times. That is a significant confidence booster to the team’s morale, but will the team manage to face the opposition with the same zeal? And more importantly, will that confidence be enough to secure a victory?
