After losing to defending champions Chennai Super Kings in the previous match, Royal Challengers Bangalore will try their best to get back on track in today's double-header. Bengaluru will face Delhi Capitals at the Wankhede Stadium from 7:30 pm. RCB had started their campaign brilliantly with three consecutive wins after their first loss to Punjab but Chennai had defeated them by 23 runs in the previous match.
Virat's bat runs against Delhi
Former captain Virat Kohli's bat speaks often against Delhi. He has 1219 runs in 34 innings against Delhi. Today the team will expect big innings from him. The team had missed Harshal in the last match as captain Faf du Plessis did not have the option to stop Shivam Dubey and Robin Uthappa. Known for his variation of bowling and taking wickets apart from stopping runs in the death overs, Harshal has been an integral part of RCB's team and du Plessis admitted that the team felt the need for him. Among the other bowlers, Mohammad Siraj and Akashdeep have conceded runs while Wanindu Hasaranga too was unable to curb runs in the previous match. The team will be expecting better from their bowlers today.
With the bat, Duplessis and young Anuj Rawat have given the team a quick start while Dinesh Karthik is playing his role of finisher well. Shahbaz Ahmed and Suyash Prabhudesai have also batted well.
Delhi hopes for a fast start from Prithvi Shaw
Delhi, on the other hand, will go into this match with a boost of morale after registering a massive 44-run win against Kolkata Knight Riders in the previous match. Opener Prithvi Shaw has been in fine form after scoring two consecutive half-centuries while Australian legend David Warner also played well in the last match. However, the number three position for the team is a matter of concern as none of its batsmen have been able to play at this number so far. Captain Rishabh Pant also needs to play big innings.
Spinner Kuldeep Yadav has emerged as Delhi's top spinner while pacer Khaleel Ahmed has taken seven wickets in three matches. Delhi has a good option in pace bowling in the form of Enrique Nortya. Apart from this, there are information all-rounders in the team in the form of Axar Patel, Shardul Thakur, and Lalit Yadav. Delhi, however, will expect a better performance from Rovman Powell. At the Wankhede Stadium, four of the last five matches have been won by the team batting second, so the role of the toss will also be important.
