So far in this season of the mega sporting event, both Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore have put up an impressive show for the cricket buffs. However today's match might be a game changer on the points table as DC and RCB will eyeing to extend their good run of form which has seen either sides registering three wins in their previous four outings.
Delhi is on the second spot in the points table with 6 points in their kitty. Meanwhile, RCB also have 6 points in the bank but is placed a position lower than Delhi due to the inferior run rate.
Both teams come into the encounter high on confidence after registering resounding wins in their previous games. While the Virat Kohli-led RCB side trounced Rajasthan Royal (RR) by eight wickets, the Shreyas Iyer-captained DC defeated KKR by 18 runs in their last league encounter.
It could be a high scoring affair on a good batting track at Dubai as the power-packed batting lineups of both teams are finally getting some semblance.

Prithvi Shaw, Shikhar Dhawan, Shreyas Iyer(c), Rishabh Pant(w), Shimron Hetmyer, Marcus Stoinis, Ravichandran Ashwin, Axar Patel, Harshal Patel, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje
