DC sits nice with three consecutive wins, while RCB has had a strong start to the season, winning three of four games.
Coincidentally, RCB’s solitary setback occurred against the Gujarat Titans in their opening home game. RCB captain Rajat Patidar, who made his debut against the Mumbai Indians (MI) a few days ago with a 32-ball 64, will be hoping for a pleasant return.
The steady contributions of Jitesh Sharma and Virat Kohli will support RCB. With the ball, veteran left-arm spinner Krunal Pandya has surpassed expectations. He took four wickets against MI.If Phil Salt, the opener, can settle into a rhythm, RCB could be virtually unbeatable.
The game gives K.L. Rahul the opportunity to showcase his skills in a comfortable environment. A batting staple for DC, the Karnataka cricketer has benefited from switching to a more aggressive style.
In the case that Faf du Plessis is unable to play, Rahul will be assigned to take over the new ball. In Bengaluru on Wednesday, du Plessis had a hit in the nets despite missing the previous game. Regarding the South African’s availability, DC assistant coach Matthew Mott was unsure. He will likely be evaluated by the physiotherapists today. He certainly appears to be moving much more fluidly now. For us, he’s a crucial player,” Mott stated.Mott responded, “It’s somewhere in the groin area,” when asked about the type of injury.
