IPL 2022: Match 19: KKR vs DC Dream11 Prediction, Fantasy Cricket News, Head to Head and Pitch & Weather Report

Kolkata Knight Riders will face Delhi Capitals in Game 19 of Tata IPL 2022 on April 10 at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai.<img src="https://api.bdcrictime.com/kkr-vs-dc-10_04_2022.jpg"> The 19th game of the current Indian Premier League (IPL) will be played at Brabourne Stadium in Mumbai on Sunday between Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Delhi Capitals (DC). The game is scheduled to start at 3:30 p.m. IS. While Kolkata will be looking to win the game to further consolidate their position at the top of the points table, Delhi on the other hand will be looking to secure a win lest they lose their third game in a row.Match Preview 
Delhi Capitals (DC) got off to a great start to their Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 campaign as they beat Mumbai Indians (MI) in their tournament opener by four wickets and 10 balls.After that, however, they lost two games straight away and are currently in seventh place in the points table. They will try to stage a quick comeback against Kolkata Knight Riders in their next game. 

Kolkata Knight Riders, on the other hand, have played 4 games in IPL 2022 so far, winning 3 and losing only 1. With 6 points in the box, KKR is at the top of the points table. Her lower middle class and bowling have looked good in the tournament so far, while her top has yet to live up to the racquet. With the likes of Rishabh Pant and David Warner at odds, the Knight Riders face a rigorous test with two vital points up for grabs.Team PreviewsKolkata Knights Riders 
KKR currently sits at the top of the IPL table with three wins from four games. It has found various players to take the lead in every win as Pat Cummins, Andre Russell and Umesh Yadav have all claimed Man of the Match honors. 

The player XI for KKR appears to be pretty much set and unlikely to change from the previous game. We saw an absolute freak of an inning from Pat Cummins, in which he hit one of the all-time fast fifties in his first appearance of the season. 

With Billings, Russell, Cummins and Narine in the mid/low ranking, KKR has plenty of power and depth to play with. The performance of these players is probably why players like Nitish Rana and Ajinkya Rahane got away with a slow start to the 2022 IPL. 

We don't want to select any of these batters for the Top Batsman market, but we want to bet that KKR will hit more sixes than DC in this match. 

KKR's Bowling Attack is also looking very useful at the moment. Umesh Yadav currently has the most wickets in IPL 2022 and is consistently accumulating wickets during the power play. He will have Pat Cummins, Andre Russell, Sunil Narine and Varun Chakravarthy in support in this match. This is a blockbuster bowling lineup regardless of who the extra bowler selected is. 

With a bit of spin expected to play a role, we wouldn't mind placing a small bet on Sunil Narine being the top wicket taker for KKR in this match.Delhi Capital 
DC has a massive problem with their lineup and there doesn't seem to be an easy way out. After a great start from Prithvi Shaw in the previous match, the rest of the hitting just failed to fire. David Warner couldn't get the ball off the field, Pant played one of his worst innings in IPL history and Rovman Powell seems to be struggling to get into any rhythm. 

This puts too much pressure on thugs like Lalit Yadav, Axar Patel and Shardul Thakur. Delhi's top batters need to find form quickly and play without fear or the same problems will be uncovered over and over again. 

However, DC's bowling could be more than useful in Brabourne. Mustafizur and Nortje are better than what we've seen so far, and the weirdos will get some help too. Kuldeep Yadav turned DC to victory in the previous game DC played at Brabourne. 

His spin bowling partnership with Axar Patel and Lalit Yadav could be quite significant.Match Prediction 
While it seemed unlikely that the Kolkata Knight Riders would bat for their SRH 20 overs in Dubai, we know it was a difficult wicket and they could have put up a respectable total. Delhi Capitals will feel like they have the IPL T20 in their possession and will use that as motivation for the game. We predict a close game between Kolkata Knight Riders and Delhi Capitals.Toss Prediction 
The team that wins the toss will want to bat first. This may be one of the few departures we see from the current trend in IPL 2022, where chasing was the norm.Pitch Report 
A high-scoring game is expected at Brabourne Stadium, although some help will be offered to the bowlers. The pacesetters are not offered much momentum early on, allowing the clubs to play their natural game. As the game progresses, the spinners come into play depending on the turn-on offer. Both teams will ideally be looking to chase after winning the draw, with 170 being a good total at the venue.Head to Head
