Match 32 of the IPL 2024 edition saw the Rishabh Pant-led Delhi Capitals (DC) storm past hosts Gujarat Titans (GT), in Ahmedabad, on Wednesday (April 17) to win by six wickets in pursuit of a paltry 90. After chasing the target in a mere 9.2 overs, DC improved their Net Run Rate (at&nbsp;-0.074) to climb to the sixth spot in the points table. Captain Pant ended as the Player of the Match&nbsp;despite Mukesh Kumar, Ishant Sharma and Tristan Stubss sharing seven wickets in between, for his wicketkeeping and captaincy skills.

After the match, former England captain-turned-commentator Kevin Pietersen lauded Pant for his fitness and work behind the stumps during the GT encounter, at the Narendra Modi Cricket Stadium in Ahmedabad. Pant accounted for four dismissals behind the stumps, led with aplomb and also ended with an 11-ball 16 not out. He took a sensational catch to dismiss dangerman David Miller and&nbsp;followed it up with two&nbsp;successive stumpings of Abhinav Manohar and Shahrukh Khan.

Thus, Pietersen lauded Pant and stated that he looks poised to feature in India's T20 World Cup 2024 squad. So far, the swashbuckling left-hander -- who returned to competitive cricket during the ongoing edition after a horrific car crash in late 2022 -- has managed&nbsp;210 runs in 154 balls&nbsp;at a strike rate of 156.72. Thus, he is surely a strong contender to make it to the T20 WC squad.

Speaking on Star Sports, Pietersen said, "He's (Pant) doing a pretty good job... I thought his mobility tonight was something that gave him great encouragement. That will give Team India great encouragement. He needs game time, of course, everybody needs game time when they're coming back from an injury. He's coming back from a horrific injury, so game time is what he needs and to get himself into a T20 World Cup, to have played 14,15,16,17 games. It's a big thing leading into a T20 World Cup, so if he does go and they (DC) do play that much cricket, he will be so ready."

Pant started off slowly but is now in full flow in the ongoing IPL season. He would first hope for DC to reach the playoffs so that he gets more game time under his belt&nbsp;and continues to make a mark both with the bat and&nbsp;behind the wickets&nbsp;to be part of Rohit Sharma-led India's T20 WC squad.

The mega event will be held in the West Indies and the USA in early June, soon after IPL 2024. India's provisional squad is expected to be out by early May.

GT vs DC: Kevin Pietersen backs Rishabh Pant to be 'ready for T20 World Cup' by end of IPL 2024

Delhi Capitals will look to register back-to-back wins in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024 season for the first time this season as they travel to the home of the 2022 champions Gujarat Titans (GT). The contest set to take place at the Narendra Modi Stadium on Wednesday (April 17) will be the fourth meeting between the franchises. GT currently lead the head-to-head 2-1 but will be wary of the DC side who are trying to hunt for a place in the playoffs.

Gujarat Titans have so far endured a mixed season in the IPL 2024 and have three wins in six matches so far. Their home form has seen them register two wins while their only defeat came against a resolute Punjab Kings side. Captain Shubman Gill is yet to click on the IPL 2024 and will look for a big performance on Wednesday.

Delhi Capitals come into the contest on the back of a dominating win over Lucknow Super Giants last Friday. DC’s away form so far has been poor as the win against LSG was their only away success in IPL 2024. The team will rely heavily on the services of Axar Patel, Rishabh Pant and David Warner.

IPL 2024, Match 32: Gujarat Titans vs Delhi Capitals – Match preview and result prediction

GT vs DC Live Streaming: Gujarat Titans (GT) and Delhi Capitals (DC) will lock horns in match 32 of the IPL 2024 on Wednesday. The match is slated for April 17 at 7:30 pm IST and will be played at the GT’s iconic home ground Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.&nbsp;

Gujarat Titans defeated Rajasthan Royals in their last match, handing them their first loss of the season. With this match, the Shubham Gill-led side will look forward to clinching an easy win over the out-of-form Delhi Capitals.

They are currently placed at the ninth place on the points tables, and defeating Titans in the match will be a daunting task for them.&nbsp;

GT vs DC, IPL 2024, Match 32: Head-to-head, playing XI, prediction, pitch report | All you need to know

Not many would have given bottom-ranked David Warner-led Delhi Capitals (DC) any chance of beating table-toppers Gujarat Titans (GT) when both sides met&nbsp;in Ahmedabad&nbsp;in match 44 of the IPL 2023 edition on Tuesday (May 02). Opting to bat first, DC were rattled by Mohammed Shami's spell, 4-0-11-4, as they were reduced to 23 for 5 but&nbsp;Aman Hakim Khan's 51 and contributions from Axar Patel and Ripal Patel took DC to 130 for 8 on a challenging surface. In reply, Ishant Sharma 2 for 23 and a brilliant final over took Delhi to an unlikely win over Gujarat, by five runs.

GT was tottering at 32 for 4 and despite a 62-run stand between captain Hardik Pandya (53-ball 59) and Abhinav Manohar (33-ball 26), for the fifth wicket, Gujarat never found any rhythm. The defending champions' run-chase got a much-needed push with Rahul Tewatia slamming three back-to-back sixes off Anrich Nortje in the penultimate over. From 33 off 12, GT were alive in the chase with only 12 needed off the last six before Ishant used all his experience to dismiss Tewatia and ended by only conceding six runs.

After the match, Ishant revealed how he got the better of Tewatia (resorting to his change-ups). "I played enough cricket with Tewatia, so was just having fun with him. I knew I had to double bluff him otherwise we know what he can do with the bat," he stated.&nbsp;

At the post-match presentation, Warner said, "Our bowlers were amazing.&nbsp;I was nervous when Tewatia was going off, he has a reputation for that kind of stuff. Anrich is our most consistent death bowler, but couldn't get it right today. But Ishant was so clear with what he wanted to execute for us."

With this win, DC keep their playoff hopes alive whereas GT remain at the top with 12 points from nine games.&nbsp;

IPL 2023: 'I knew I had to...'- Ishant Sharma reveals how he outfoxed Rahul Tewatia in DC's tense win over GT

Delhi Capitals (DC) have kept their slim hopes of playoff alive after they beat Gujarat Titans (GT) in a low-scoring thriller in the Indian Premier League (IPL) at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday. Defending a low-scoring total of 131, DC had Khaleel Ahmed and Ishant Sharma as they scalped two wickets each while restricting GT to 125/6 and thus winning the contest by five runs. The win for GT means they fail to move clear of the 10-point traffic jam pack and will have to put on a show to make the last four.

Chasing 131, GT lost wickets at regular intervals as the likes of Shubman Gill (6) and Wriddhiman Saha (0) failed to make any impression. GT lost three key wickets in the powerplay as Vijay Shankar (6) also departed for a low score.

The bowling attack of Ishant Sharma and Khaleel Ahmed proved to be lethal as David Miller (0) also failed to make an impression.

Skipper Hardik Pandya (59) held one end for the home side but could produce the desired batting attack which saw GT fall short. In the end, Rahul Tewatia, 20 off 7 almost produced another cameo knock to win the contest for GT. He scored three sixes to take the contest to the final over but with 12 to get off the final over, Tewatia was dismissed leaving Hardik Pandya helpless.

IPL 2023: Delhi Capitals keep slim playoff hopes alive in yet another low-scoring thriller against GT

Former India player Virender Sehwag took a jibe at Delhi Capitals’ (DC) approach in the Indian Premier League (IPL) contest against Gujarat Titans (GT) after they faced a horrible batting collapse. Sehwag was not pleased with the batting approach of the DC side while underlining poor selection as the reason for their failure against a resolute GT bowling led by Mohammed Shami.

“Priyam Garg should have sacrificed his wicket because Warner would have scored runs for Delhi, he is the batter in form and would have taken Delhi to a respectable total. Delhi's collapse is down to the poor shot selection. Warner was left unfortunate,” Sehwag said after Delhi’s horrible collapse.

Sehwag also spoke on Axar Patel’s batting position and highlighted that he should have come early. According to Sehwag, the move would have made sense and could have seen DC end with more runs despite early struggles in the contest.

“We all wanted Axar Patel to come in early to bat, so he did. Yes he batted at the same position, but came in the fourth over. But while we expected that he would come early and score 60-70 runs, that didn't happen because he too was under pressure as a lot of wickets had already fallen,” he said.

Gujarat Titans (GT) and Mohammed Shami had a spectacular evening at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad on Tuesday, May 2 as he ripped apart the Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Shami, playing in his ninth match of the season, took control of the Purple Cap after scalping his 17th wicket of the season.

DC faced a tough task to make it to the triple-figure mark, but Aman Hakim Khan’s 51-run knock and Axar’s 27 saw the visitor’s end with a competitive score of 130/8 in 20 overs. Shami ended with figures of 11/4 in his four overs and was the pick of the bowlers for the home side.

However, it was not before the partnership of Shami and Wriddhiman Saha started a nightmare for DC. Shami got the better of Rilee Rossouw (8) on the fifth ball of the third over while dismissing Manish Pandey on the first ball of the fourth over. Things only went better for the Indian star as he followed up with Priyam Garg’s dismissal on the final of the same over.

Interestingly, all three latter dismissals were caught behind as Shami and Saha were at the top of the game. The veteran star ended with figures of 11/4 which saw DC reduced to 23/5.

Shami now has 17 wickets in the IPL 2023 and went level with Tushar Deshpande of CSK while Punjab Kings (PBKS) star Arshdeep Singh, Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) man Mohammed Siraj and Shami’s teammate Rashid Khan have 15 wickets each.

With GT sitting in pole position to make the Playoffs, Shami and Rashid will stand a better chance to improve their numbers and thereby stand a better chance of winning the Purple Cap this season. A win for GT will see them go on 14 points which will see them get closer to the last four spot.

IPL 2023: Mohammed Shami rips apart DC batting line-up to gain control of Purple Cap with four-fer

In match 7 of the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 edition, the defending champions Gujarat Titans (GT) beat Delhi Capitals (DC) by six wickets at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, New Delhi on Tuesday (April 04). The Hardik Pandya-led side put on a clinical display versus David Warner &amp; Co. as the home side were asked to bat first. Riding on Mohammed Shami (2 for 41), Rashid Khan (3 for 31) and Alzarri Joseph (2 for 29), GT restricted DC for 162 for 8 and chased down the score with 13 balls to spare courtesy of Sai Sudharshan's 62 not out along with David Miller's 16-ball 31*.

After the game, the South African superstar Miller -- who joined the GT squad recently after the completion of his national duties -- heaped praise on captain Hardik. The 29-year-old has impressed one and all with his captaincy skills. He has managed his bowlers wisely, set aggressive fields and backed his troops to the core. Miller, thus, lauded Hardik for instilling a lot of confidence in the squad.

“Hardik is definitely one of the top players I have worked with. I have been very privileged to work under him. My first captain in the IPL was Adam Gilchrist, so very privileged to be in this position. We never really knew Hardik last year, but got to know him off the field. He is his own person and instills a lot of confidence within the squad. He’s a huge team man and makes a lot of time for the younger guys,” Miller told the reporters.

At the post-match presentation, Hardik told the broadcasters, "It was funny at the start, we didn't know exactly what was happening but something was happening. We gave 15-20 runs extra in the powerplay. The way the bowlers pulled back was amazing. I go with my instinct, I like to back myself. I would rather back my own decision and fall down rather than thinking something else. Most often, I rather punch first rather than take the punch. We tell the boys to enjoy there. It helps you take the right decisions. Someone's putting their hand up. We have spoken about this. Taking care of each other is more important. He (Sai Sudharsan) is been batting terrifically. Credit to the support staff and to him as well. The amount of batting he's done in the last 15 days, all the result you see is all his hard work. Going forward, if I'm not wrong, in two years, he'll do something great for franchise cricket and eventually for India cricket as well."

IPL 2023: Champions Gujarat Titans continue winning start to season, beat DC by six wickets in Delhi

Delhi Capitals (DC) and Gujarat Titans (GT) will be looking to continue their winning run in Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 when they lock horns against each other at the MCA Stadium in Pune on Saturday (April 2nd). Both teams won their respective opening matches of the season.

While Delhi Capitals defeated Mumbai Indians (MI) by four wickets after successfully chasing down the target of 178 runs with ten balls to spare, Gujarat Titans rode on Rahul Tewatia's heroics to chase down the target of 159 runs against Lucknow Super Giants and register their first win of the season.

Delhi's batting line-up struggled against the Mumbai Indians despite the MI bowlers having an off day. The likes of Rishabh Pant and Tim Seifert will have to step up against Gujarat Titans, who have a brilliant bowling attack consisting of the likes of in-form Mohammed Shami, Lockie Ferguson and Rashid Khan among others.

Delhi Capitals' bowlers will also fancy their chances against the Gujarat Titans, who have a pretty thin batting line-up with a top-order that is yet to fire. The likes of Shubman Gill and Matthew Wade will have to produce an improved show with the willow against DC bowlers on Saturday.

Kuldeep Yadav was the hero with the ball for DC in their last outing against Mumbai Indians. The leg-spinner picked up a three-wicket haul while conceding only 18 runs off his four overs. Khaleel Ahmed was also effective with 2/27 off his four overs and will look to continue his fine form against Gujarat on Saturday.

For Gujarat Titans, Rashid Khan's performance will hold the key against the likes of Pant, Shaw and Siefert. Rashid managed only one wicket against Lucknow but was economical as he conceded only 27 runs off his four overs. The ace spinner will be looking to be among the wickets against DC this time around.
