The Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) will be looking to maintain their IPL 2023 playoff hopes alive when they take on Delhi Capitals (DC) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on May 6. The RCB, who have a mixed campaign so far, will be hoping for a win against the in-form DC.
RCB has one of the strongest opening pairs in the league in the form of Faf Du Plessis and Virat Kohli. They have given the team good starts, and the duo will be looking to do the same in this match. Glenn Maxwell, who has done well in the number-3 slot, has been a key player for RCB, contributing 70% of their runs so far. However, the middle order has been inconsistent, leaving RCB vulnerable.
Kohli, who has grown up playing cricket at the Kotla, also has a good record against DC. He could be the one to watch out for in this match. However, the batsmen lower down, including Dinesh Kartik, Mahipal Lomror, and Shahbaz Ahmed, have struggled to score runs, making it difficult to trust them.
RCB will be relying on its strong seam attack to deliver the goods against DC. Mohammed Siraj has been the pick of the bowlers with 15 wickets and has received good support from Harshal Patel, who has 10 wickets to his name. However, Patel has been expensive, especially at the death.
Wanindu Hasaranga and Karn Sharma have bowled well in the middle overs, while Josh Hazlewood, who made an excellent debut in the last match, fits in as the fifth bowler. The bowling attack for RCB is strong, and they will be hoping to take the lead against DC.
