Background
RR Vs DC, IPL 2024 Live Score: Hello and welcome to the live coverage of the Match 9 between Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur as the fixture promises to be an epic battle between the in-form side of Rajasthan and winless side of Delhi. The fixture takes place on Thursday, March 28, at 07:30 p.m. and Rajasthan Royals will be playing their second consecutive home game, whereas, Delhi Capitals are on the road for second consecutive game.
Rajasthan Royals have traditionally been a dominant side at home but had lost their mojo in the IPL, until 2022, when the side reached its first ever final since the inception of the Indian Premier League (2008). Since then, the side have produced the likes of Yashasvi Jaiswal, Dhurv Jurel, Riyan Parag, and many more. The overall stability in the side, with fearless batters up front, and the experience of Sanju Samson, and explosive Indian all-rounders, concluded by ever-consistent bowlers, both in spin and pace department, makes the side a hot contender for the elusive trophy of IPL.
Delhi Capitals, on the other hand, had a forgettable last season, as they severely missed their talisman Rishabh Pant in IPL 2023 due to the wicketkeeper-batsman's horrendous accident. DC have lacked depth in their batting lineup, which has been heavily exposed by good bowling lineups last season and even in the opener against Punjab Kings, it was an individual brilliance from impact player Abhishek Poral which guided the side past 170 and if they want to stand a chance against an in-form RR side, a collective effort is indeed, heavily required.
