RR vs DC, IPL 2023: Probable XIs, pitch report, weather forecast, and live streaming details
Match 11 of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2023 will see the Rajasthan Royals (RR) lock horns with the Delhi Capitals (DC). The Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati will host this clash.
Rajasthan Royals beat the Sunrisers Hyderabad in their opening game of the competition but failed to carry forward the winning momentum. They lost to the Punjab Kings in their next game in a closely fought contest.
Jason Holder bowled and picked up two wickets for the Royals as the Kings posted 197 on the board. In reply, Sanju Samson top-scored with 42 but they kept losing wickets at regular intervals. The game went down to the wire and the Royals fell short by five runs. They will be hoping to fire in unison on Saturday and get back to winning ways.
Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, have had a terrible start to IPL 2023. They have played two games so far, losing both. After suffering a heavy loss in their opening game against the Super Giants, they failed to bounce back against the Gujarat Titans in their next.
Skipper David Warner (37) and Axar Patel (36) contributed with the bat but a lack of big partnerships resulted in the Capitals scoring 162 in their quota of 20 overs. The bowlers tried hard but failed to pick up wickets as the Titans got across the line with 11 balls to spare.
The Capitals need to bring out their A-game to grab their first win of the competition in their upcoming fixture.
