An uninterrupted contest beckons fans when the Delhi Capitals (DC) square off against the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Saturday, May 6.

DC have had a terrible run in IPL 2023, languishing at the bottom of the points table with only three wins out of nine matches. However, they have won three out of their last four matches, which will give them some confidence heading into the contest.

The Capitals did an excellent job of defending 130 runs against the Gujarat Titans (GT) in their last outing, eking out a five-run victory. Khaleel Ahmed and Ishant Sharma were brilliant, picking up two wickets apiece, while Kuldeep Yadav's economical spell sealed the deal for DC.

RCB, on the other hand, have peaked at the right time as the tournament approaches its business end. They prevailed over the Lucknow Super Giants (LSG) in a low-scoring thriller, beating the home side by 18 runs. Josh Hazlewood and Karn Sharma did an excellent job as RCB bowled out LSG for 108 runs.

Both teams will look to continue their winning run in the competition and keep themselves in the hunt for a top-four finish.
