Delhi Capitals, ranked eighth, will face Gujarat Titans, ranked sixth, in New Delhi at 19:30 IST (14:00 GMT).

Team Updates and Impact Player Strategy 

The Delhi Capitals face a setback as Mitchell Marsh will be sidelined for the rest of their campaign due to a hamstring strain. Ishant Sharma's availability is also uncertain as he deals with back spasms.

Prithvi Shaw's role in the upcoming match hinges on whether the Capitals opt to bat or bowl first. Depending on this decision, Shaw could either be subbed in or out for Khaleel Ahmed or Mukesh Kumar. 



Should the Capitals find themselves in a batting crisis and require an additional impact player, they might consider fielding Jharkhand's Kumar Kushagra.
