Delhi Capitals Playing 11 vs RCB - IPL 2024, Match 62

Delhi Capitals face a must-win situation against RCB heading into Sunday's game at the Chinnaswamy stadium. They have two games remaining and need to win both of them to stay alive in the playoffs race.

DC are placed fifth on the points table heading into this game. Their NRR is still negative and they need victories by big margins to convert that into positive. This is the first meeting between the two sides this season.

Delhi Capitals won their previous match against Rajasthan Royals at home. The match showed their batting and bowling depth. The Capitals are still waiting for the fitness update of David Warner who has played just seven games so far and scored just 167 for the season.

He played his last match against SRH on April 20 and scored just one. The team has a few injury concerns. However, the other players have stepped up for the side big time. Prithvi Shaw's poor form has led to him being benched as well.

After a convincing win over Rajasthan Royals, Delhi Capitals might very well back the same side to deliver for them in this crucial game.
