Tata IPL 2022 – DC vs RCB, match preview, predicted lineups

DC vs RCB
Match no. 27 of IPL 2022 between DC and RCB takes place today

Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Banglore lock horns in Tata IPL 2022 on Saturday in the second of the double-header. Both teams will go for a win here.

Date & Time : 16th April 2022, 7:30 PM IST

Venue : Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai

Delhi Capitals have had a mixed campaign so far in this IPL but they must now look to capitalize and win more games playing their brand of cricket.

Delhi’s top order is aided now by the addition of David Warner and they have power in the middle. Bowling wise they have good spinners and the fast bowlers must take wickets.

DC have so far beaten MI & KKR. They have lost to GT & LSG.

Royal Challengers Banglore, on the other hand, too have had a mixed campaign. They must themselves look for more wins.

Bangalore have batsman up the order which can cause trouble and with Glenn Maxwell in good form they can benefit. As for their bowling apart from Wanindu, they need heavy contributions from others.

RCB have won so far against KKR, RR & MI. They though have lost against PBKS & CSK.

Head to head wise out of the 26 games played between the two, RCB have the upper hand, winning 15 compared to Delhi’s 10 with one match being a no-result.

For the wicket, it is helpful for the batters while good ball bowlers will reap rewards. It is a good chasing wicket.

Team news and possible lineups

There are no fresh injury concerns for both sides at the moment.

RCB XI : F. du Plessis (C), Rawat, Kohli, S. Ahmed, Maxwell, D. Karthik (WK), Prabhudessai, Hasaranga, A. Deep, Siraj, Hazelwood.

DC XI : Shaw, Warner, S. Khan, Pant (C&WK), Powell, L. Yadav, A. Patel, S. Thakur, K. Yadav, Rahman, K. Ahmed.

Prediction

I expect toss to be the deciding factor with bowling first a good option.
