After being able to manage 162 on the board, Delhi Capitals (DC) have announced their impact player that would take the field in the second half of the game. David Warner-led Capitals have replaced batter Sarfaraz Khan with left-arm pacer Khaleel Ahmed who will be delivering crucial spells with the ball.

This comes after Sarfaraz played a struggling knock of 30 from 34 balls where he could only manage two fours. He came when the Capitals lost their second wicket in form of Mitchell Marsh for four when the score was just 37 in the fifth over.

Talking about Khaleel, he was part of the side in the last game but was substituted in place of Aman Khan. Ahmed produced an outstanding spell of two for 30 in the last game where he bagged the wickets of Marcus Stoinis and Nicholas Pooran. 

However, even after all this, DC could not manage to get past the Lucknow Super Giants as they fell short by 50 runs.

Coming back to this game, Gujarat are 30 for 1 after three overs with the only player to fall was Wriddhiman Saha for 14 by an Anrich Nortje thunderbolt.
