2019 Indian Premier League(IPL) Season 12 - Match 46 Delhi Capitals Vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru @ Delhi Sunday April 28,2019



Having finally arrested a long losing streak Royal Challengers Bangalore will now head to the Feroz Shah Kotla in a bid to further their slim chances of making the playoffs when they face Delhi Capitals 

RCB have won four out of their last five matches and still have an outside chance of making it to the playoffs despite being bottom-placed.

AB de Villiers has been in terrific form of late as was evidenced by his scintillating 44-ball 82* against KXIP
After two consecutive losses on home turf, Delhi finally broke the Kotla voodoo to register a comfortable five-wicket win against Kings XI Punjab before travelling to Jaipur and getting the better of Rajasthan Royals as well. They now have a chance to move to the top of the points table with a win against Bangalore and more or less secure a place in the playoffs.

DC boast a solid batting line up with a perfect blend of experience and youth. With Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw at the top and the likes of Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant and Colin Ingram to follow
DC's bowling largely revolves around Kagiso Rabada and Chris Morris but they also gave a well-rounded attack with spinners Sandeep Lamichhane, Amit Mishra and Axar Patel doing their job pretty well. Rabada has taken 23 wickets so far this IPL in just 11 games and is comfortably the leading wicket-taker in the tournament

Delhi Capitals beat Royal Challengers Bengaluru by 16 Runs, book playoff spot
