Match number 56 of the Tata IPL 2024 is all set to be played between the Delhi Capitals (DC) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in New Delhi. The last match between these two teams was played on the 9th of March where RR won by 12 runs. Now it will be interesting to see if RR will be able to continue their winning streak or if DC will break some horns against their rival RR.
With a record of five victories and six defeats, DC currently occupies the sixth position in the standings. Despite a somewhat turbulent start, the leadership of Rishabh Pant has kept them in the playoff race. Their recent loss, a seven-wicket defeat against Kolkata Knight Riders, hasn’t dampened their spirits as they aim to improve their standing by defeating the Royals.
In contrast, RR holds the second spot in the standings with eight wins out of ten matches. The 2008 champions have enjoyed a remarkable season and are determined to secure a top-two finish as the tournament heads towards its crucial stages. Despite their narrow one-run loss to the Sunrisers Hyderabad in their previous game, the Rajasthan-based franchise remains a formidable opponent.
The pitch of Delhi has always been a favourite for the spinners due to its slower surface. Moreover, the length of boundaries is comparatively less as it will help batters with some more number of boundaries.
Therefore, we the sports desk of Bharat Express would suggest choosing to field first after one wins the toss at the Arun Jaitley Stadium.
