Match preview: DC vs RCB
Match preview: DC vs RCB – Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) cannot afford to drop points against Delhi Capitals (DC) on May 6 at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in order to maintain their chances of qualifying for the IPL playoffs. Strikingly, the capitals are at present at the lower part of the IPL 2023 Focus Table, while RCB are at number five. The team led by Faf du Plessis defeated the Lucknow Super Giants by 18 runs in their most recent match, and they will now aim to maintain that momentum. Virat Kohli and Faf du Plessis will once again need to lead with the bat in order to accomplish this.
Despite Delhi’s victory over the table-toppers Gujarat Titans in their most recent match, there are still many areas in which the team led by David Warner must improve. Particularly their batting, which has not terminated in that frame of mind of Rishabh Gasp. Phil Salt, Rilee Rossouw, Manish Pandey, Priyam Garg, and Sarfaraz Khan, among numerous others, have been extremely poor in the continuous season, while with the ball, they have made a momentous showing up until this point. Ishant Sharma, a veteran pacer, has been fantastic, as have Anrich Nortje and Axar Patel.
Pitch report of DC and RCB
In the current season, the surface in Delhi has been favourable to batters. On this surface, a score above 190 is acceptable, and the captain who wins the toss should bowl first.
