Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) takes on Delhi Capitals in match 62 of IPL 2024 in Bangalore on Sunday from 7.30 pm IST. RCB are on a four-match winning streak and play their last two games at home.
The Faf du Plessis-led side lost six on the trot before winning four on the bounce and making a comeback in the season. At the heart of it all has been Virat Kohli's batting who has retained the Orange cap and is inching closer to 700 runs this season.
The RCB bowlers also stepped up in the last four games. RCB won two games defending and two games chasing in their last four games. They won by 35 runs against SRH and by a mammoth 60-run margin against PBKS. They won both their games chasing against GT.
It is unlikely that RCB will break their winning combination but the team still has a lot to do to make the playoffs. Not only do they need to win their remaining two games, but they also need a few other results to go their way.

Swapnil Singh
The left-arm spinner will slot in at nine. He took 2/28 against the Kings and has been a good addition to the RCB side. He and Karn Sharma have been getting a few games.
