Delhi Capitals' fans have had quite a bit to cheer about this season, especially in the first half. Delhi won 5 of their first 7 matches. However, just at the time when it looked like the Capitals would march into the playoffs for a second consecutive season, their downward slide began. Delhi lost 4 of their next 7 games. Shreyas Iyer has perhaps had a mixed bag of a season so far, going by Delhi's win-loss record in the league stage this year with 8 wins, 6 losses. This season Delhi Capitals finished second in the points tally after the league stage and made their way to Qualifier 1, where they suffered a 57-run thrashing at the hands of Mumbai Indians, who are hands down the biggest favourites to win the title. 'Super Sunday' on November 8 will give Delhi one more chance to put one hand on the trophy when they face an upbeat Sunrisers Hyderabad in Qualifier 2. Iyer has a huge opportunity to do what previous captains like Virender Sehwag, Gautam Gambhir, Kevin Pietersen and others failed to do – lead Delhi to their maiden IPL title.
