Delhi Capitals vs Sunrisers Hyderabad  prediction

Delhi Capitals bowled out Gujarat Titans for 89, the lowest total of the IPL season, on their way to a six-wicket victory in Ahmedabad on Wednesday.

However, the Delhi bowlers may struggle to maintain those high standards when they take on in-form Sunrisers Hyderabad on Saturday.

The Sunrisers have won four of their last five matches, posting the two highest scores in IPL history during that hot streak.

They smashed 277-3 in last month's home win over Mumbai Indians before breaking their own record in Monday's victory at Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where they piled up 287-3.

A comfortable six-wicket win over defending champions Chennai on April 5 was another statement of intent from Pat Cummins' Sunrisers, whose leading runscorers Heinrich Klaasen, Travis Head and Abhishek Sharma have awesome strike-rates of 199, 199 and 197 this season.

Delhi are missing the injured Mitchell Marsh, who took 4-27 and scored a quickfire 63 in this fixture last season.

The Capitals have won their last two games against Gujarat and Lucknow but in their previous two matches they had conceded 234-5 against Mumbai and 272-7 in a 106-run defeat to Kolkata, which should encourage Hyderabad's big hitters.
