Highlights of ipl 2020: Delhi at No. 2 – dc vs rcb ipl 2020 highlights: delhi capitals beat royal challengers bangalore by 6 windows to secure second place in points table

This time the digital desktop: Virat Kohli & Company’s current IPL tour seemed as shaky as the beginning. Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore meet at Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi on Monday to finalize the play-offs. Shreyas Iyer, the captain of Delhi Capitals, was the last to laugh in the fight for second place in the points table.

Delhi Capitals beat Royal Challengers Bangalore by 6 wickets in Abu Dhabi. Shreyas, captain of Delhi, won the toss. But despite winning the draw, he decided to line up first. In the first innings, Royal Challengers Bangalore lost 6 wickets in 20 overs and scored 152 runs. In response, Delhi Capitals lost 4 wickets in 19 overs and won the match by 154 runs.

Delhi’s batting lineup looks shaky from day one. Starter Josh Philip was out for just 12 runs. Yet another opening angel, Parikkal, was continuing the game in its glory. Then Bangalore captain Virat Kohli was sacked for 29 of 24 balls. AB de Villiers tried to catch the match but it was sold out at 35. At that time the angel Parikkal did half a century.

But Devdut was out for 50 runs. And so the huge team fell to great danger. Everyone from Chris Morris to Shivam Dubey Isuru Udana returned to the pavilion at the speed of a storm. Bangalore lost 6 wickets in 20 overs and scored just 152 runs, which is kind of a sniff for Delhi! Enrich Nortze from Delhi and Ravichandran Ashwin played brilliantly on the day. This is the first time at IPL that Ashwin has taken a window away from Virat Kohli. Norz took 3 plots and Kagiso Rabada took 2 plots.

Delhi, on the other hand, lost the Prithvi Shaw wicket in 1 over 4 balls. And then Ajinkya Rahane and Shikhar Dhawan took the helm of the match. The two also formed a 100-race partnership. The good news for Delhi is that Ajinkya Rahane returned to the race after a long absence. Shikhar Dhawan also hit well on this day. However, Gabbar was fired for 54 of 41 balls. Rahane, on the other hand, returned to the pavilion for 60 of 48 balls.

Delhi captain Shreyas Iyer was also fired for just six races. However, both Rahane and Gabbar paved the way to win the match. In the end, Rishabh Panth and Marcus Steinis led Delhi to victory in 19 overs. Like batting, Bangalore players were unable to watch bowling on this day. Mohammad Siraj and Washington Sundar took 1 window each and Shahbaz Ahmed took 2 windows.

After winning this match, Delhi Capitals secured the second position in the table with 16 points. There are no more obstacles in front of Shreyas’s team. Delhi also made the play-offs. However, what is most shocking is that even after losing this match, Royal Challengers Bangalore took a place in the play-offs. And the only reason is the Net Execution Rate (NRR).

Despite winning the Delhi match that day, they had to play more than 2 balls in 18 overs, so the huge team was ahead of Kolkata Knight Riders in net run rate. If Delhi Capitals had won today’s match in 15 overs, the Bangalore play-off would not have been ready. That means Indians from Mumbai, Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore have made it to the play-offs right now. Kolkata Knight Riders and Sunrisers Hyderabad will have to battle for fourth place.
