There’s plenty on offer for RCB vs DC match prediction. Over the years, Bengaluru has been a major fascination. But the question is: could RCB turn the tables to break the duck since March 23, 2019, in the ongoing IPL 2019.
Hosts Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) are aiming for their maiden win of the twelfth edition of the IPL. Following a supreme show with the bat from RCB camp, Kolkata Knight Riders‘ (KKR) Andre Russell has mauled the RCB bowlers by playing some audacious cricketing shots. He has been a nightmare for the Virat Kohli and his men on Friday evening.
On the other side, Delhi Capitals (DC) are coming from a loss as well against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH).
Meanwhile, Russell’s 13-ball 48-run knock including as many as seven sixes and it seems unbelievable with four coming off Tim Southee’s over.
The New Zealand recruit will remember this beating for the lifetime. Anyway, the focus is on the impending game of RCB, who had faced a heartbreaking loss in the first five outings. They’re almost done and dusted. But again, there’s a hope for a new dawn.
While languishing on the bottom of the table, RCB has failed as a unit as Kohli alongside AB de Villiers tried their best to steady the ship.
And again, you can’t blame Kohli for all. It’s their bowling which has often backfired and this season it’s quite a similar sort of story. Also, the missing of a prominent all-rounder has hurt RCB’s cause.
On the other side, young and exciting another Delhi lad Shreyas Iyer is hopeful despite losing their previous game by performing poorly with the bat. However, given to the Kotla wicket, it has driven criticism for its ugly nature earlier this week.
Beyond the failures, Capitals would be relying on their positives and their bowlers have raised the bar by making a decent comeback against the SRH in already a lopsided contest. However, they delivered their best by sending shivers down the spine of Sunrisers batters.
Date and Venue:
The match number 20 of the PL 2019 will get underway on 7th of April at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru.
Pitch Report:
While offering assistance to the batsmen it also witnessed some heroics from the bowlers. Let spinners rock and roll. Apart from that, it’s a belter of a surface on a traditional basis.
Besides, the early game would not have that much impact on the toss. However, chasing has always been a case under such circumstances.
Weather Report:
The temperature would touch the mid-30s and the maximum temperature on Sunday will be 36-degree centigrade. It’s also going to be a tedious job for the fielders. With the minimum temperature of 22, the humidity will be around 22-25 per cent.
However, the players will enjoy the Bengaluru breeze with the maximum wind speed of 10-11 kph.
Match Prediction:
With both teams having some exciting names in the squad, the aggressive captains would further play their playing XI according to the situation. Kohli would like to introduce Washington Sundar, whereas, Iyer would be hoping to see their openers doing a bulk of the job.
Considering both the teams, despite Delhi being at number five spot after two wins in five matches, RCB is still a team to watch out for. And they won’t let the opportunity go waste while staring at the barrel of a gun.
The team winning the toss will opt to field first. The first innings projected score would be anything between 170-185.
