Toss Delhi Capitals opt to bowl vs Gujarat Giants
Giants finished second on the table, and are coming off a three-match winning streak. DC won three out of their last four games, and went ahead of Mumbai Indians (MI) to secure their place in the Eliminator.
This will be DC’s first time in an Eliminator, having previously gone directly to the final as a result of topping the table. Giants qualified for the Eliminator last season too, where they lost to MI.
During the pitch report, former India captain Mithali Raj said the pitch was “dry underneath”, and that there could be bounce on offer. She also said it was a “good track to bat on”.
Giants beat DC both times when they faced each other in the league stage.
