The spinners powered the comeback for DC with Kuldeep getting 2 in his 4 overs at an economy of 5.80. The pitch looks to have something for the spinners and Kuldeep says that it is on a slower side and 174 is a good total. Can Delhi get it to win the first game of the season. We shall find that out soon.

    And Lomror now falls after a brilliant use of review by DC. None other than the bowler - Marsh was confident. Pitched outside off as Lomror wanted to play a big shot. A slight tickle from the bat as the wicket-keeper takes it. Porel was not sure about this but Marsh was very much. DC went upstairs and there was spike on ultra-edge.

  • 4:15 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    Virat has to go back after an eye-pleasing fifty. Lalit Yadav gets him on a juicy full toss. Kohli smashed his 47th IPL fifty in the 10 over and was looking for a big score.

    Would have bowled first as well. Hopefully it will turn in the second innings. The wicket stays good generally. Will be crucial for me and Virat to assess the conditions early.

    How are RCB faring?

    RCB would be pleased with the fact that their big three- Virat, Faf, and Maxwell are hitting well. But after that, they look thin on batting. Meanwhile, their pacers have leaked runs in the final few overs and RCB have conceded 200+ totals for two consecutive times now. Wanindu Hasaranga is set to return to the team and shall complement the pacers with his disciplined bowling. 

  • 1:44 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    How are DC faring?

    Delhi have not batted well in the tournament so far and their spinners have not taken many wickets too. Captain David Warner is a dangerous batter when he is in a mood but has batted with a pedestrian strike rate so far. The likes of Prithvi Shaw, Manish Pandey, and Warner need to step up. Meanwhile, Axar Patel is batting brilliantly. In the bowling department, their spinners have taken just three wickets in four games. DC will be boosted with the return of Mitchell Marsh but need to perform well on the batting paradise of Bangalore.

  • 1:37 PM (IST) Posted by Varun Malik

    Delhi search opening win

    2 weeks after the Indian Premier League 2023 kicked off, David Warner's Delhi Capitals are still looking for their first win of the tournament. They have lost all four of their games, two at home and two away. DC have looked far from their best and need to fine-tune themselves to make a comeback in the tournament. Meanwhile, RCB have fared better than DC. They won 1 and lost 2. While DC have mostly lost comprehensively, RCB have given a fight and have looked good. But Du Plessis-led team needs to improve on their death bowling. So sit back in your comfort as I, Varun Malik, take you across this exciting game of the doubleheader.
