GT vs DC tip-off XI: Axar to move up in the batting order Porel for Khan Sakariya for Mukesh
Delhi Capitals will need to win all their remaining fixtures in order to make it to the playoffs. On Tuesday, the David Warner-led team will take on Hardik Pandya's Gujarat Titans in a do-or-die match in Ahmedabad. Meanwhile, the defending champions remain the team to beat this season. It is highly unlikely that Gujarat Titans will make any changes in their playing XI. Here are few tip-offs ahead of the match between Delhi and Gujarat: Axar to move up in the order Delhi have been guilty of losing too many wickets in the middle overs and they must address it going forward. Keeping the in-form Axar Patel for the death overs is understandable but considering his dream run with the bat over the past 12 months in international cricket, Warner could push him to number five if not higher. Axar has amassed 211 runs with a healthy strike rate of 142.57, including a fifty.

Delhi might make a few changes in their playing XI. Sarfaraz Khan, who has looked ordinary in their performances, might get replaced by young wicketkeeper-batsman Abhishek Porel. Sakariya for Mukesh The Indian bowlers in the Delhi Capitals side are not faring as badly as the batters. Mukesh Kumar have conceded close to 11 runs per over in seven games. The Bengal pacer is likely to be replaced by left-arm seamer Chetan Sakariya. Preparation done right!
