DC vs RCB Predicted Playing 11 - IPL 2022 Match 27

Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore will lock horns in Match 27 of the IPL 2022, on 16th April at Wankhede Stadium, Mumbai.

RCB is currently at the 6th spot on the table with 3 wins in 5 matches while DC is just a spot below them at 7th, with 2 wins in 4 matches.

RCB has an edge over DC in the head to head records but both the teams are in good momentum this time. It will be an exciting contest between Rishabh Pant and Faf du Plessis.

Delhi Capitals

Prithvi Shaw and David Warner opening combination is undoubtedly one of the best among all the teams. The power hitting in powerplay and left hand-right hand combination works for them.

Rovman Powell couldn’t perform well like he did in other recent leagues he was part of but DC is still expecting him to unleash his skills. Skipper Rishabh Pant is playing decent cricket so far, his unorthodox batting style is missing a little. 

Sarfaraz Khan scored 36 runs in 1 inning and he looked positive. Axar Patel is struggling to get a wicket so far but he has the highest batting average of 68.00 in the team.

DC’s bowling unit is well equipped with pacers Shardul Thakur, Mustafizur Rahman and Khaleel Ahmed. Khaleel is back to the squad after Anrich Nortje couldn’t perform well. Axar Patel and Kuldeep Yadav look after the spin attack. Patel is yet to get his first wicket of the season, whereas Yadav is among the top bowlers with 10 wickets so far.

Royal Challengers Bangalore

The skipper Faf du Plessis is scoring runs at the top and he got the support of youngster Anuj Rawat who has smashed 125 runs in 5 matches. But Virat Kohli’s form is still dangling.

The middle order of RCB, Shahbaz Ahmed, Suyash Prabhudessai and Dinesh Karthik have impressed everyone in the last matches. The middle order has been beefed up after the entry of Glenn Maxwell.

RCB’s bowling department is certainly going to have some tensions after they allowed CSK to post this season’s highest total - 216.

It will be difficult to make changes in the bowling line-up but Jason Behrendorff might get a chance but we cannot speculate who will sit out, therefore, we are predicting the same team for this match.
