Delhi Capitals will be playing on their home turf but there is a possibility that the conditions may turn out to be favourable for the visiting Kolkata Knight Riders when the two teams clash in an IPL match here Saturday.

In the last match too, it was Chennai Super Kings who exploited the slow conditions at Kotla better than the home side with their spinners taking full advantage of the track on which batting became challenging as the game wore on.

KKR also have a world-class spin bowling attack led by India's premier bowler Kuldeep Yadav. The wily Sunil Narine, along with Piyush Chawla, makes it a very potent attack. 

WHAT TO EXPECT?

The Kotla wicket is expected to turn and spinners from both the teams have able spinners to turn the tie in their favour. However, Kolkata have a slight advantage because of the sheer quality of the spinners they posses. Kuldeep Yadav, Sunil Narine, along with Piyush Chawla, makes it a very potent attack.
