In the upcoming 13th match of IPL 2024, Delhi Capitals (DC) will face Chennai Super Kings (CSK) at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy Stadium in Visakhapatnam. The match is scheduled to start at 7:30 PM IST on March 31.
Known for its favorable conditions for T20 cricket, the stadium offers batters a good platform to execute their shots. While fast bowlers might find less assistance from the pitch, spinners are expected to exploit the surface’s potential by generating sharp turns. Despite being batting-friendly, the pitch’s nature might provide some movement for the new ball, especially under the floodlights.

CSK vs DC Dream11 Prediction- Analysis
Rishabh Pant’s comeback hasn’t gone smoothly for Delhi Capitals, suffering defeats in both matches played so far. Their batting lineup, featuring Warner and Marsh at the top, has struggled to convert starts into substantial scores. Pant, returning after a hiatus due to injury, needs time to regain his rhythm. Concerns also linger over the inconsistency of players like Ricky Bhui, Tristan Stubbs, and Abishek Porel in the middle order. While DC boasts quality spinners in Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel, their pace bowling department lacks power.
Meanwhile, CSK, under Ruturaj Gaikwad’s leadership, has shown skills at home but faces its first away game. However, their balanced squad and in-form players make them formidable opponents, especially in spin-friendly conditions like Vizag.
