David Warner is the captain of Delhi this season in the absence of regular leader Rishabh Pant. Although Capitals lost their last match, but Warner scored a half-century and the southpaw would want to continue his form in this match as well.
On the other hand, Gujarat won their first match and their ace spinner Rashid Khan bowled a terrific spell. It is needless to say that the Titans will again rely on Khan’s brilliance again. Not just with the ball, but Khan has been equally important with the bat as well lately.
David Warner vs Rashid Khan Head to Head Record in IPL History
The battle between Khan and Warner will be an intriguing one to watch out for. Khan made his debut in IPL with Sunrisers Hyderabad, and he has played for a majority of his career with or under Warner. Both of them were released by Sunrisers Hyderabad ahead of IPL 2022 auction.
It is to note that Warner has never faced Khan in the history of the IPL. In IPL 2022, DC and GT played one match against each other, and Warner was not a part of that contest. In fact, Warner has never faced Khan in T20 cricket till now.
They have just faced each other once in an ODI match, where Warner scored 30 runs in 26 balls against Khan with the help of three boundaries. Taking into consideration how the left-handed batters generally play leg-spin well, and it will be interesting to see both of them playing against each other.
