great form this season with Jos Buttler leading the charge with the bat, Yuzvendra Chahal troubling batters with his spin. The RR camp has both the Orange Cap and Purple Cap holder and Delhi Capitals need to be wary of that on Friday.
Rajasthan have covered all their bases this season and are putting some collective performances this season, while Delhi Capitals’ middle-order has been an area of worry for them.

For Delhi, Kuldeep along with Axar Patel and Lalit Yadav would like to stem the run-flow but stopping Buttler will be on top of his agenda on a Wankhede track that is expected to be good for batting.
For Chahal, how he varies the pace against a rampaging David Warner or the ever-attacking Prithvi Shaw and skipper Rishabh Pant will be a delight for the fans.
In the past five years, life has come to a full circle for ‘Kul-Cha’ who were the ‘taste’ of the nation between 2017 and 2019 when wrist spinners were in vogue during the Ravi Shastri-Virat Kohli era.
Mustafizur Rahaman’s cutters and Khaleel Ahmed’s clever change of pace could also trouble the likes of Sanju Samson and Riyan Parag.
Similarly, if Trent Boult gets one to tail in first-up, Shaw’s response and technique will be tested in earnest.
But Royals have now got a calm death bowler in West Indies’ Obed McCoy, who was brilliant while bowling the final over against KKR.
