IPL 2015: Delhi Daredevils vs Rajasthan Royals - Venue, date and predicted line-ups

Delhi Daredevils will be looking to break their losing streak against Rajasthan Royals

The Delhi Daredevils (DD) and Rajasthan Royals (RR) head into this fixture at the Feroz Shah Kotla in Delhi in contrasting spirits. While the Royals got their IPL 2015 campaign off to a winning start with a convincing display against Kings XI Punjab, the Daredevils suffered a demoralizing defeat against Chennai Super Kings (CSK) in their opening game of the new season.
