🏏IPL 2025,M 32: Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals,DT Note:p 40 - Page 3

At an Arun Jaitley Stadium pitch that looks different to recent years, supporting spin a little bit more and allowing the bowlers to stay competitive despite its tiny dimensions, the dynamic and attacking batters on both sides will quickly need to grow accustomed to the conditions. It feels as if Sanju Samson in particular is due a big score, and he will certainly fancy his chances with the boundaries being as small as they are in Delhi.

The questions are pretty simple: will Delhi course-correct and find a fifth win to set themselves up well for the second half of the season? Or can Rajasthan fight back and keep themselves in the conversation after a tough start?

Rajasthan's trying to revive stalled momentum

It's been a funny old season for Rajasthan so far, as two losses to start off were followed by two wins, which have now been followed with two losses once again.

RR's latest loss come to their first match at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium this year, as RCB sauntered their way to a nine-wicket victory. It was a disappointingly quiet performance from RR, who looked like they were just going through the motions for much of the match.

They enter this game against the Capitals at 2-4, with four points.

Can Delhi bounce back from disappointing loss?

From needing just 78 off 54 with nine wickets in hand to not being able to bat out 20 overs, Delhi's collapse against Mumbai was as shocking as it was incredible. This, especially given the quality DC possess in their middle order.

It was definitely panicked and deflating: three consecutive run-outs of three consecutive deliveries to end the game tell the story.

It was the kind of performance that can be something of a negative turning point for teams. Can DC avoid that and get back to winning ways?
