IPL Match Today: Royal Challengers Bangalore vs Delhi Capitals (RCB vs DC): Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Capitals will be taking on each other in the 20th match of the ongoing edition of the Indian Premier League.

Nothing much has gone right for either of the two teams in the ongoing tournament so far. Delhi Capitals are winless after 4 games and have a net run rate of -1.576. Royal Challengers Bangalore have managed to open their account but have suffered crushing losses in their last two games.

Royal Challengers Bangalore began their journey in IPL 2023 by thrashing 5-time champions Mumbai Indians by 8 wickets. In their next game against Kolkata Knight Riders, they had the opposition reeling at 89 for 5. However, they went on to lose the game by 81 runs after KKR recovered and posted a mammoth total of 204 for 7.

In their last game which was against Lucknow Super Giants, they posted a huge total of 212 for 2 and had reduced the opposition to 105 for 5. However, they once again failed to deliver the killer blow and ended up losing the game on the very final ball.

Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, have endured a very tough journey in the competition so far. Their batting and bowling are yet to click. As a result, they are yet to open their account after 4 games.

In the absence of Rishabh Pant, Delhi Capitals have failed to hit the top gear. A few more defeats could very well end their hopes of progressing ahead of the league stage. The David Warner-led side will be desperate to end their losing streak when they take on RCB in the upcoming contest.

IPL match today: Who will win today IPL match?

Neither of the two teams is in great form at the moment. Both teams will enter the upcoming game on the back of a loss in their respective last clash. While Delhi Capitals have lost all of their first four games, Royal Challengers Bangalore have lost their last two games.

But unlike Delhi Capitals, Royal Challengers Bangalore have performed decently and have just failed to deliver the killer blow. Taking that into consideration and the home advantage, one can expect Royal Challengers Bangalore to beat Delhi Capitals.
