Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview: Pandya brilliant all-round
This past Monday saw Royal Challengers Bengaluru come away with a famous victory away at Mumbai Indians.

Delhi Capitals Preview: 100% for now
Delhi Capitals remain unbeaten so far after three games and are the only team remaining in the competition to still have not lost a match in this season’s IPL. They kept their excellent start due to beating Chennai Super Kings by 25 runs in Chepauk, defending their score of 183/6 with a brilliant bowling performance.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru Betting Analysis
One of the players in the race to try and claim the purple cap is RCB bowler Josh Hazlewood, the Australian having already accrued eight wickets at an average of exactly two wickets per match so far. Two of RCB’s four games have seen Hazlewood finish as his side’s top bowler and backing that outcome here warrants serious consideration from a betting point of view.
Delhi Capitals Betting Analysis
Delhi Capitals’ victory over CSK was further sweetened by wicket-keeper KL Rahul having a big role to play. Opening the batting, Rahul struck 77 from 51 balls, a huge knock from an individual perspective and a big confidence booster for the Indian international. Consider backing him to follow that through with an innings of 20+ runs against RCB.
Royal Challengers Bengaluru vs Delhi Capitals Expert Prediction
Delhi Capitals are finding ways to come out on top in every situation right now but in a tournament like the IPL, it doesn’t take much for the script to flip very quickly. Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s only defeat of the season so far came at home and RCB will no doubt be eager to record their first victory in front of their own fans here.
RCB have already taken out some big-name teams this campaign like Kolkata Knight Riders, Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians. Delhi Capitals with their 100% record are the exact sort of opposition that RCB thrive upon playing and it would be no surprise to see the hosts hand Delhi their first loss of 2025.
