Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals Predictions

The Royals got off to a great start, beating Lucknow Super Giants by 20 runs after a brilliant display with bat and ball. The powerful Capitals top six failed to fire as they set the Punjab Kings an achievable target in their opener.

Rajasthan Royals’ Sanju Samson hit 6 sixes and 3 fours against the Super Giants.
Rajasthan Royals’ Yashasvi Jaiswal scored 24 runs at a strike rate of 200.00 against the Super Giants.
Delhi Capitals’ Shai Hope top-scored with 33 off 25 balls against the Punjab Kings.
Delhi Capitals’ David Warner scored 29 off 21 balls against the Punjab Kings.

Head-to-Head

The Royals have won three of the last five matches against the Capitals, including two of the last three. The Capitals won the other two matches.

Rajasthan Royals Form

The Royals enjoyed an excellent win in their IPL opener against Lucknow Super Giants.

The Royals scored a commanding 193/4 on the back of a third-wicket stand of 93 runs by Sanju Samson (82* off 52 balls) and Riyan Parag (43 off 29).

Trent Boult (2/35) helped reduce the Super Giants to 11/3, and with Sandeep Sharma (1/22) bowling superly, the Royals restricted their opponents to 173/6 off their 20 overs.

Rajasthan Royals Team News

Rajasthan Royals are in good form and are unlikely to make any changes to their team.

Delhi Capitals Form

The Capitals started the season with a loss to the Punjab Kings, with none of their batters passing 33.

Shai Hope (33) helped get the innings off to a good start, with Abishek Porel (32* off 10 balls) adding vital runs at the end of their 20 overs, ending with 174/9 off their 20 overs.

The Punjab Kings hit their target with four wickets and four balls in hand, despite good bowling from Kuldeep Yadav (2/20) and Khaleel Ahmed (2/43).

Delhi Capitals Team News

Delhi Capitals need their top-order to put some big runs together for their bowlers to defend.

Verdict

Rajasthan Royals v Delhi Capitals

I am backing Rajasthan Royals to win. I am also backing Sanju Samson to top score for Rajasthan Royals.

Shai Hope is a good bet to top score for the Delhi Capitals.
