Delhi Capitals will play against Kolkata Knight Riders in Match No. 70 of the 2026 Indian Premier League on May 24 at Eden Gardens. As the league stage nears its end, Delhi Capitals hope to finish on a strong note and keep their slim chances of making the playoffs alive. Currently, they are in eighth place on the points table with six wins from 13 matches. Their season has been marked by inconsistency, with moments of brilliance often overshadowed by struggles to find steady form.
To have any chance of qualifying for the playoffs, Delhi must secure a significant victory against KKR and also rely on the results of other matches. Although the path to qualification is challenging, the Capitals are determined to approach the game aggressively and deliver a strong performance in this vital fixture.
Here is the strongest predicted DC XI for Match 70 vs KKR:
Top Order: KL Rahul (w), Abishek Porel, Sahil Parakh
