DC vs SRH Pitch Report: Delhi Capitals are set to host high-flying Sunrisers Hyderabad in the 35th match of the Indian Premier League 2024 at Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday. The venue is set to host its first game of the season and is expected to produce a mouth-watering clash.

Delhi recorded an impressive win against Gujarat Titans in their last game to register two back-to-back wins for the first time this season. Rishabh Pant-led Capitals are struggling with various injury issues as they fail to field the same playing eleven for consecutive games and are currently placed in the sixth position in the points table with three wins in seven matches.

On the other hand, Pat Cummins-led Sunrisers stunned the cricket world by posting 287 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru in their last game, breaking their own record for the highest IPL totals set this season. Hyderabad have registered three consecutive wins in their last three games and another win will boost them to second place in the points table depending on other teams' results.
