Match Overview

In Hyderabad, on April 21, Delhi Capitals' captain Axar Patel won the toss and chose to field first against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) during their Indian Premier League (IPL) match.

SRH has been performing well at home, securing victories in their last two matches.

Meanwhile, the Capitals are coming off an exciting win against the Royal Challengers Bangalore and aim to continue their success.

"We will bowl first. Luck seems to be on our side with the toss; winning all matches would have been ideal. I never expected to play 100 matches for DC, and I hope to celebrate with a win tonight.
