DC vs RR Dotball Prediction

A defeat at the hands of the reigning champions Chennai Super Kings meant that the Delhi Capitals lost their table-top spot and now have slumped to the third position on the points table.

Although they have already made it to the playoffs after a wait of 7 long years but a blip at this stage of the tournament will definitely hinder their momentum going into the playoffs.

Rajasthan Royals are their next opponent, a side against whom they have already registered a scintillating win courtesy a heroic batting show from Rishabh Pant. The Royals who were on the course of making it to the playoffs were sustained by the rain gods as the abandoned game against RCB halted their hopes.

They have a very minuscule chance of getting into the playoffs now, if they had managed a win over RCB, things could have been totally different, but as of now, their ray of hope is blemishing.

Delhi’s campaign has been jolted with a big blow as their premier pacer and the Purple cap holder has been ruled out from the remainder of the IPL owing some back troubles. His absence in the big stage will definitely halt them and it would be interesting to see which individual will step-up to the occasion in his absence for the Capitals.

  • After a good outing in the match against CSK, Jagdeesh Suchith is expected to keep his place in the eleven as the Kotla’s wicket gives aid to the spinners.
  • RR’s skipper Steve Smith has flown back home to join Australia’s World Cup preparatory camp.

DC vs RR Dotball Team Prediction

DC vs RR Dream 11 Prediction

Rajasthan Royals:

Ajinkya Rahane will hold the key in the batting department for RR. He has a brilliant record in Kotla as he has scored 457 runs from 10 innings here. Sanju Samson will be another batter to watch out for the Royals.

In the bowling department, Shreyas Gopal will be the one to watch out for as he has got 10 wickets in his last 5 matches and is coming fresh of a hat-trick against RCB in the last game.

Delhi Capitals:

Skipper Shreyas Iyer has been one of the most consistent performers for his side as he has been scoring well and has 2 fifties in his last two appearances in Kotla. His partner in crime would be the experienced Shikhar Dhawan whos has five fifty-plus scores already this year.

With the departure of Kagiso Rabada, Chris Morris, Amit Mishra and Ishant Sharma will be the responsible ones in the bowling facet of Delhi Capitals.
