16th edition of IPL starts from today
The first match will be played between Chennai and Gujarat
New Delhi. Before the start of IPL 2023, many veteran players have given their opinion about the team that will become the champion this time. Former South African all-rounder Jacques Kallis has also predicted in this regard. According to Kallis, it is very difficult to tell which team will become the winner. The selection of the teams playing the playoffs is a big deal. The former all-rounder said that all the teams in the IPL have the potential to turn the tide anytime.
Jacques Kallis has been a part of the Royal Challengers Bangalore and Kolkata Knight Riders team in IPL. He was in the Kolkata team from 2011 to 2014. KKR won the IPL title in 2012 and 2014 under the captaincy of Gautam Gambhir. Jacques Kallis said on Star Sports, looking at the team combination and other equations, I was feeling that this time the last battle is going to be between Delhi Capitals and Mumbai Indians, in which Delhi will win.
Mumbai has won the title 5 times
Delhi Capitals have not won a single IPL trophy so far. The team managed to reach the finals of 2020, but had to face defeat at the hands of Mumbai Indians. In IPL 2022, Delhi Capitals was at number five in the point table. David Warner will lead Delhi in the absence of Rishabh Pant. The team will play its first match on April 1 against Lucknow Super Giants.
4 teams haven’t won the IPL title yet, will enter with 2 new captains, will luck turn this time?
On the other hand, talking about Mumbai Indians, Rohit Sharma’s team has become champion in the league 5 times so far. However, the last season was very bad for Mumbai and the team could win only 4 out of 14 matches. Mumbai Indians will start their campaign in IPL 2023 with a match against Royal Challengers Bangalore on 2 April.
