When Delhi Capitals and Sunrisers Hyderabad meet in Visakhapatnam for the Eliminator, there's more at stake than survival. It's a cultural clash of the season's two unique journeymen: one being a late-blooming team that's come of age like never before, and the other which won the Indian Premier League as a prodigy but now reels from all the genius it spent over the last few seasons.

 Head to head: Sunrisers have won 9 out the 14 matches between the sides

- Delhi have never won a knockout match in IPL

- Sunrisers won 5 out of 9 matches in IPL 2018 while defending totals. In 2019, they have successfully defended only twice in 7 matches, the scores being 212 and 231

- Barring Amit Mishra (6.33), all other Delhi spinners have conceded over nine in away games - Axar (9.35), Tewatia (9.00) and Lamichhane (9.13)
