Match 20 of the ongoing IPL 2023 will see Royal Challengers Bangalore hosting deflated Delhi Capitals at Chinnaswamy Stadium on April 15. This will be the first match of Saturday’s doubleheader.
After winning their first match of the season against the Mumbai Indians, the team has lost two consecutive matches and currently sits in the bottom half of the table. Their next match against the Delhi Capitals (DC) presents a perfect opportunity for them to get back to their winning ways.
RCB is known for its strong batting lineup, and this season is no different. The opening pair of Faf Du Plessis and captain Virat Kohli has been in scintillating form, with both players scoring two half-centuries each. However, the team’s biggest concern is their bowling. While the likes of Mohammad Siraj, and Harshal Patel have picked up wickets, they have been way too expensive, especially in the death overs.
In their last match against the Lucknow Super Giants, RCB lost a high-scoring affair in the very last ball, and they will be looking to put that disappointment behind them.

Mohammed Siraj Stats in IPL
Mohammed Siraj once again was among the wickets in the game against Lucknow Super Giants. While Siraj has been excellent during powerplay, he has struggled at the death overs which the pacer will be looking to improve.
Virat Kohli Stats in IPL
Virat Kohli scored yet another half-century in IPL 2023. However, his last innings was criticised by commentator Simon Doull as the batter slowed down the tempo to reach his fifty. The RCB star would be raring to prove his critics wrong this time and will be the player to watch out for according to our RCB vs DC Prediction.
