In their previous encounter, Delhi met Bengaluru, and Delhi was asked to bat first. They started decently, but once the wicket fell, they kept losing one after the other and never had a partnership. They could only post 162 runs on the board, and in return, Bengaluru lost three early wickets too, but the fourth wicket partnership meant an easy win by six wickets with nine balls to spare.

Kolkata faced Punjab in their last match, where Punjab won the toss and elected to bat. And as one would expect, they had an explosive start with Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh, with both scoring half-centuries. This led to Punjab putting up a good total of 201 runs on the board. The second innings could not happen due to rain, and the match ended in no result.

Because of its short boundaries and dry conditions, the Arun Jaitley Stadium is a perfect surface for batsmen. Numerous high totals have been scored on this pitch in the past. However, spinners may also benefit from its dry character as the game progresses. After winning the toss, most teams would try to bat first and then defend their score. However, teams' decisions following the toss may change if dew starts to accumulate.
