Rishabh Pant-led Delhi Capitals will take on Kolkata Knight Riders on April 28, at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.

So far, the right-hander has scored 254 runs in 7 matches at a phenomenal strike-rate of more than 160 and he will once again hold the key in the first six overs. There will also be a lot of focus on Rishabh Pant, who was not at his best in the last match against the Rajasthan Royals.
