Bangalore vs Delhi, 19th Match – Live
Royal Challengers Bangalore
Although head coach Simon Katich has effectively ruled out changing a winning combination, a strategy tweak may be made for this fixture. Deepak Chahar and Bhuvneshwar Kumar found swing in Dubai and Dale Steyn could provide a match-up advantage against a predominantly Indian top-order for the capitals, who could find Adam Zampa relatively easier to negotiate.
Probable XI: Devdutt Padikkal, Aaron Finch, Virat Kohli (c), AB de Villiers (wk), Shivam Dube, Gurkeerat Singh Mann, Isuru Udana, Washington Sundar, Adam Zampa/Dale Steyn, Navdeep Saini, Yuzvendra Chahal
Delhi Capitals
Two injury concerns hover over the Capitals following their win over KKR in the Sharjah cauldron. Prithvi Shaw didn’t field in the second innings after being hit by a throw during batting and did limp around at the presentation. Amit Mishra hurt his fingers while trying to take a return catch and didn’t bowl out his overs. Ajinkya Rahane could make his Capitals bow and Axar Patel could come back in for the leggie.
Probable XI: Shikhar Dhawan, Prithvi Shaw/Ajinkya Rahane, Shreyas Iyer (c), Rishabh Pant (wk), Shimron Hetmyer, Marcus Stoinis, Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel/Amit Mishra, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje
Did you know?
– Kagiso Rabada has taken at least one wicket in his last 18 games in the IPL, a streak dating back to 2017
– Kohli has found an opportune time to return to form. Against Delhi, he has scored 8 half-centuries at an average of 63.46 and a SR of 139
– The Capitals have won just 8 of their 23 meetings against RCB. Two of those wins, however, came in the last season.
What they said:
“I think what helped was he [Kohli] got us over the line in that Super Over. Great shot to finish the game there against Mumbai and he’s carried on from there. What we see in the nets from training to training is someone that’s super professional. He’s looked like he’s timing the ball beautifully and he works so hard at his game it was only a matter of time before he got runs in the middle. It was great to see him control that chase – which we know he does so well – and hopefully now that will kickstart the rest of his IPL.” – Simon Katich on why the RCB staff weren’t worried about the captain’s slow start to IPL 2020.
“They have got a pretty good line-up, and have some big names. But, I think we have got a good team as well and the guys have been training really well. If we just execute our skills, perform the way we have been, I think, it’s going to be a very good game, and I’m sure we can outskill them.” – In-form Anrich Nortje believes his team is good enough to outskill any opposition.
