DC vs RCB Match Prediction
Delhi Capitals vs Royal Challengers Bangalore Match Prediction: Delhi Capitals are playing at their home ground Arun Jaitley Stadium, where their batting (Rahul, Nair) and spin bowling (Kuldeep, Axar) are in great form. 6 wins and better net run rate boost their confidence.
On the other hand, RCB’s batting (Kohli, Padikkal) and bowling (Hazlewood, Krunal) are strong, especially their 5-0 record in away matches. But the weakness of the middle order after the first home win at Chinnaswamy is a matter of concern.
In the first match of this season, Delhi defeated Bangalore by 6 wickets at Chinnaswamy, in which Rahul scored 75 runs. Delhi has won 38 out of 86 matches under Arun Jaitley, while RCB has won 4 out of 9. Both teams are equal in head-to-head.
According to the experts, Delhi’s chances of winning are 55%, while RCB’s are 45%. If Rahul and Kuldeep perform well, then Delhi can win. But if Kohli and Hazelwood perform well, then RCB can win.
