IPL 2020, DC vs RCB Toss Update: Delhi Capitals Win Toss, Opt To Field First Against Royal Challengers Bangalore. Delhi Capitals make three changes - Rahane, Axar and Sams come in. Virat Kohli too has made a couple of changes. Dube comes in for Gurkeerat Mannto to provide some fire power in the middle. Shahbaz Ahmed replaces Saini who is not fully fit.


The 55th match of IPL 2020 is to be played between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore on Monday at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi. This match is important for both teams to qualify directly for the playoffs. Delhi are struggling in the last 4 games and Bangalore are looking for just 2 points to make it to the playoffs from the last three matches, but they got nothing except defeat.



The team that wins in today's match will get these two precious points and will qualify for the playoffs with 16 points, while the losing team will have 14 points and will get a place in the playoffs based on the net run rate of the rest of the teams.



The Delhi Capitals had a great start this season. At one point it seemed that his team would qualify for the playoffs and everyone was just talking about whether Delhi would finish the league stage in first place or second in the points table. But after facing defeat in their last 4 matches, Delhi is now struggling to reach the playoffs.


On the other hand, RCB's condition is similar to that of Delhi. Three matches earlier, Virat-led RCB needed only two points to qualify directly for the playoffs, but now they are also battling to reach the playoffs after scoring a hat-trick of defeats.






In today's match, in front of Delhi's lethal bowling attack, Bangalore  batsmen will have to score runs playing their natural game. Even today, if RCB batters play slow to build their innings then the team may have to bear the brunt of it.

RCB's bowling has also been ineffective in the last three matches. Every bowler except Chris Morris and Washington Sundar has been hammered for runs. Today their bowlers need to regain their rhythm.
