Rajasthan Royals will face Delhi Capitals at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati on Saturday in a day game. Thus, the dew wouldn’t be a factor for these two teams and both of them will look to bring their best to the table.
RR have won one out of the two matches they have played so far in the tournament whereas Delhi Capitals have lost both of their games in the season. DC has failed to put up impressive batting performances in both of their matches and the onus will be on their batters.
Here is the Stats Preview of Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals:
Delhi Capitals skipper David Warner has accumulated 5974 runs in 164 IPL matches at an average of 42.07. Ergo, the veteran Australian needs another 26 runs to become the third IPL player after Virat Kohli and Shikhar Dhawan to reach the 6000 runs milestone in the tournament.
Mitchell Marsh is 20 runs away from completing 500 runs in the IPL.
Anrich Nortje needs another five wickets to get to the milestone of 50 wickets in the tournament.
Mustafizur Rahman has picked 46 wickets in as many matches and he needs another four wickets to get to the feat of 50 wickets.
RR’s batter Shimron Hetmyer has thus far gathered 889 runs in the tournament and ergo he is 111 runs away from reaching the 1000-run mark.
RR talismanic opener Jos Buttler has scored 2907 runs in 84 IPL matches and he needs to score another 93 runs to get to the landmark of 3000 runs. Buttler will become the first England player to reach the 3000-run mark in the IPL but he is doubtful for the match against DC after suffering a finger injury against PBKS.
Trent Boult has scalped 94 wickets in 80 IPL matches and the ace pacer will become the first from New Zealand to take 100 wickets in the IPL after taking six more wicket.
