RR vs DC Dream11 Team Prediction | Player Stats | Dream11 IPL 2020
Rajasthan Royals will take on Delhi Capitals in the 23rd Match of Dream11 IPL 2020 at Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Sharjah. We will provide RR vs DC Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing XI, and Dream11 Tips.
Rajasthan Royals:
After a brilliant start to the tournament by winning two consecutive matches, Royals lost three consecutive matches and are currently at the 7th position on the points table with 2 wins and 3 losses and a total of 4 points.
One of the reasons for their defeats is the collapse of their top order. Steve Smith and Sanju Samson have not been able to score even in double digits in the past 3 matches. Their middle order is inexperienced, but they have still managed to perform decently.
With the return of Ben Stokes into the team, their middle-order problem will be solved, and they can also be benefitted from his bowling. Jofra Archer has been performing well but went for runs in the last match. The debutant Kartik Tyagi impressed everyone with his pace and swing and has shown that he has got a lot of talent.
If Rajasthan wants to win the matches, then their top-order batsmen need to be back in form, and if their bowlers manage to bowl well then, the Royals will have a chance in further matches.
- Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal will open the innings for RR.
- Steve Smith will bat at No.3, followed by Sanju Samson and Mahipal Lomror.
- All-rounders Rahul Tewatia and Tom Curran will play a crucial role in the lower middle order.
- Shreyas Gopal and Rahul Tewatia will form the spin attack of the team.
- The pace attack will consist of Tom Curran, Jofra Archer, Jaydev Unadkat/Kartik Tyagi and Ankit Rajpoot.
Delhi Capitals:
The Delhi Capitals are having a great time as they are currently at the 2nd position on the points table with 4 wins and 1 loss and a total of 8 points.
The Capitals have made a complete turn-around this season with their performance. They have ticked all the boxes of batting, bowling and fielding. Prithvi Shaw is looking in good form along with his partner Dhawa who has been performing decently in the last matches.
Middle-order batsmen Shreyas Iyer, Rishab Pant, and Shimron Hetmyer have been striking the ball well and scoring a good amount of runs, and Marcus Stoinis has done an excellent job so far as a finisher.
Their spinners Axar Patel and Ravi Ashwin have been bowling well and consistently picking up wickets. The purple cap holder Kagiso Rabada has been bowling extraordinarily and picking up wickets at his will and is accompanied by two outstanding bowlers Anrich Nortje and Harshal Patel.
All in all, DC appears to be an extreme side, and it will be difficult for the team to defeat them. The Capitals can go on to win the title this season.
- Shikhar Dhawan and Prithvi Shaw will open the innings for DC.
- Skipper Shreyas Iyer will bat at NO.3, followed by Rishabh Pant and Shimron Hetmyer.
