The Royal Challengers Bengaluru will be eyeing a fifth-straight victory in their upcoming game against the Delhi Capitals. After a poor start to their campaign this year, Bengaluru have sprung to life with four straight wins in the T20 extravaganza. They took down Punjab Kings in their previous game, acquiring the seventh place on the IPL table. The epic fixture was played yesterday where Virat Kohli showcased his batting prowess by producing a record-equalling knock. The former Bengaluru skipper scored a 47-ball 92 while smashing seven boundaries and six maximums. His heroics saw Bengaluru put up 241 runs in the first innings. The three-time finalists were no slouch on the bowling front either. Spearheaded by Mohammed Siraj’s three-wicket haul, Bengaluru dismissed the entire Punjab squad by the 17th over to win by 60 runs.
The crucial fixture between the Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Delhi Capitals will be hosted at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on May 12. Delhi have also been on a resurgence lately with three wins in their last four matches. They beat the Rajasthan Royals in their previous match to keep their chances of making the playoffs alive. Half-centuries from Jake Fraser-McGurk and Abhishek Porel proved crucial as Delhi edged out their opponents by 20 runs. They will now be looking to replicate a similar performance against Bengaluru.
