The second rank Delhi Capitals take on the third rank Royal Challengers Bangalore on Monday.
With an emphatic win against Rajasthan Royals, RCB is in full confidence to take on in-form Shreyas Iyer-led Delhi Capitals.
Their chances increased when the news of Amit Mishra’s exit from the tournament has broken out recently.It is a big blow for Delhi Capitals as Amit Mishra is a crucial wicket-taker for DC.The news is that there is an injury concern for DC’s key batsmen Prithvi Shaw as well.
Even the head-to-head stats says RCB has an edge.
In the IPL history, Royal Challengers Bangalore won fourteen matches against Delhi Capitals, while the Delhiwalas could only manage to win eight games against RCB.With Virat Kohli getting back to form and the most destructive AB de Villiers in the middle, RCB looks dangerous for Delhi Capitals.
However, DC Captain Shreyas Iyer is leading from the front with his dynamic captaincy.And if Shikhar Dhawan in the opening, Rishabh Pant in the middle fires, it is not a big task for DC to outshine RCB as well.
Moreover, Axar Patel can replace the vacuum created by the exit of Mishra, who would be as effective as Mishra.So, Let’s see who gets the upper hand on whom.
