DC have been dealt with a big blow as David Warner will be missing the clash against GT on April 17. Gujarat would have good news in terms of returns as they welcomed back David Miller and Wriddhiman Saha into their lineup as both men had been out of the lineup for the last few games. Warner suffered the injury during the match against LSG and would be sent to have scans on his left hand.
Speaking at the press conference before the match, DC head coach Ricky Ponting had said that Warner would have a fitness test on Wednesday morning to see if he would be fit to play the match. However, it seems like the opener could be out for some time due to the injury.
Warner was replaced by Sumit Kumar in the lineup after DC won the toss and opted to bowl first against GT in Ahmedabad. That was the only change Delhi made from the side that won against LSG.
