The Delhi weather has been swinging between hot and cool over the last few days with the Met department predicting thundershowers till Tuesday. Hosts Delhi Capitals and Chennai Super Kings though will hope for a smooth passage of play at the Arun Jaitley Stadium here today. The two teams are currently in the middle of the pack, with very little separating them, and both will be looking to garner some much-needed points to rise in the table.

CSK, placed sixth, and DC, placed seventh, both have eight points after winning four and losing five out of nine games; the only thing separating them is net run-rate (CSK 0.005 and DC -0.895).
