To remain in the race for the IPL playoffs, Delhi Capitals will have to defeat the in-form team like Rajasthan Royals at any cost on Tuesday and all eyes will be on the bat of captain Rishabh Pant and Jack Fraser McGurk. If Delhi wants to remain in the race for the playoffs, it will have to win at its home ground at any cost, while Rajasthan will have the opportunity to officially reach the knockouts by winning this match.
Position of both teams in the points table
Delhi has so far won five out of 11 matches and lost six. Delhi will have to win the remaining three matches at any cost, although even after that they will have only 16 points which may not be enough to reach the playoffs. Apart from KKR (16 points in 11 matches) and Rajasthan Royals (16 points in 10 matches), Chennai Super Kings (12 points in 11 matches), Sunrisers Hyderabad (12 points in 10 matches) and Lucknow Supergiants (12 points in 11 matches). Can go beyond 16 points. In such a situation, Delhi may not be able to qualify even after the best performance, but Pant has faith in Mahendra Singh Dhoni's policy of controlling only what can be controlled.
There will be a double challenge for Pant
There will be a double challenge for Pant on the flat pitch of Arun Jaitley Stadium. He would like his bowlers like Khaleel Ahmed, Ishant Sharma, and Kuldeep Yadav to dismiss Yashasvi Jaiswal, Sanju Samson, and Ryan Parag cheaply, but with only 60 meters of boundary, it will be difficult to do so. Pant, who has scored 380 runs so far including three half-centuries, will once again be responsible for a good performance. They have an aggressive batsman like Australia's young Fraser McGurk. Together these two can change the map of the match. However, Delhi will face a tough challenge from the bowling attack of the Royals.
Rajasthan bowlers have performed well
It will not be easy for Delhi batsmen to play Yuzvendra Chahal and Ravichandran Ashwin. Apart from him, the Royals have another useful bowler in the form of Sandeep Sharma. The economy rate of Rajasthan's bowlers has also been good, but Delhi has Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav as the only bowlers whose economy rate has been below nine. Khalil Ahmed, Mukesh Kumar, Lizard Williams, and Anrich Nortje have proved to be very expensive. The last time both the teams met in Jaipur was in March in which Delhi had to face defeat.
The probable playing 11 of both the teams is as follows...
Rajasthan Royals: Yashasvi Jaiswal, Jos Buttler, Sanju Samson (captain and wicketkeeper), Riyan Parag, Dhruv Jurel, Shimron Hetmyer, Rovman Powell, Ravichandran Ashwin, Trent Boult, Avesh Khan, Sandeep Sharma.
Delhi Capitals: David Warner, Jack Fraser McGurk, Abhishek Porel, Rishabh Pant (captain and wicketkeeper), Tristan Stubbs, Shai Hope, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Khalil Ahmed, Ishant Sharma, Mukesh Kumar.
