Match prediction and IPL betting tips for DC vs SRH IPL 2022. The match is going to be played at the Brabourne Stadium, Mumbai on the 5th of May 2022.

DC vs SRH Team Previews

Delhi Capitals

DC lost its previous match against LSG by just 6 runs, a margin that flatters its performance a bit in our opinion. Some poor choices and decisions during the batting stint had more or less ended its chase long before some free boundaries were got.

DC has failed to win two consecutive matches so far in IPL 2022 and must find a way to get rid of its inconsistency. Every single match that it has won so far has Kuldeep Yadav as the man of the match and so his importance to this DC side cannot be underestimated.

As a bowling unit, DC has some excellent options but not enough depth. Kuldeep Yadav, Mustafizur Rahman, and even Axar Patel have been excellent but Chetan Sakariya, Lalit Yadav, and Shardul Thakur are just not dependable enough. It was a surprise to see Khaleel Ahmed being left out after a good start and he may get a run in the team once more.

The batting lineup for DC has started to look a lot better now than Rovman Powell is in form. He, Axar Patel, and Shardul Thakur form a very good lower order that can contribute with some runs regularly. The top order is also loaded on paper with Shaw, Warner, and Marsh in the top-3 followed by Pant and Lalit Yadav.

DC's team is lacking a bit of spark but it does seem to have the parts to pull off a win in this match.

Sunrisers Hyderabad

SRH lost two matches at the start, won its next five matches, and now has lost two on the trot once more. It is in the fourth position on the standings and also has a healthy net run rate but would like to get another win to just get back on track.

All of the excitement around SRH has been down its bowling lineup. Umran Malik is making waves around the world with his pace and seems to have improved as a bowler as well. He now has the most wickets for an uncapped bowler in IPL history.

With Bhuveneshwar Kumar and T Nataraj also finding their rhythm and the impressive Marco Jansen for support, SRH's seam bowling stocks are undoubtedly superior to DC. The problem is with their spin-bowling option. Washington Sundar is injured and so they will have to go back to their left-arm spinner Jagadeesh Suchith or include the leggie, Shreyas Gopal.

This spin bowling option could be a weak link that DC can exploit.

SRH's batting has been quite good in previous matches as Abhishek Sharma, Aiden Markram, and Nicholas Pooran are all in good form. Rahul Tripathi has had a couple of quiet games but he is not someone you want to count out either.

The problem seems to be depth in the batting lineup as well as the lack of intent from Williamson at the top.

DC vs SRH Toss Prediction

The team that wins the toss is going to want to bowl first. The Brabourne has not had too much dew but teams still do not like to take a chance.

Pitch and Conditions

The conditions at the Brabourne Stadium have been very good for batting. The average score batting first has been a little above 174 and a six has been hit every 17 balls on average. That means you can expect around 14 sixes per match on average.

There has been a gap of three to four days between matches and so we expect another good batting surface where the teams are able to score freely. There is a bit of bounce on the surface that could make the fast bowlers from both teams more effective.

We are going to bet on the Delhi Capitals to win this match. We think DC has an underrated bowling lineup and a batting lineup that is just coming into its own.

The odds for this bet are a bit low but we still think this is an excellent option. Prithvi Shaw and David Warner are super aggressive at the start while Mitchell Marsh to follow also plays in the same manner. The average powerplay score for DC is 57.2 while it is just 42.8 for SRH. This is definitely a bet worth taking a risk on.

This match is being played at the Brabourne Stadium where we have seen a four being hit every 6.8 delivery in IPL 2022. This means that an average of 35 fours are being hit a match. Since the Over/Under line is well short of that, we think this is a betting market on which you can take a punt.

    Kuldeep Yadav (2.25)

    Visit

No cricketer has taken more wickets at the Brabourne Stadium than Kuldeep Yadav. His four wickets in the previous match DC played here helped them win against KKR. The big boundaries play to his strength and he likes the bouncy pitch as well. This is a risky bet by nature but one where you can place a small bet on.
