DC vs RCB 2025 Match 46
RCB continued their road dominance as they beat Delhi Capitals by six wickets at Arun Jaitley Stadium to record their sixth away win of this IPL season and become only team in IPL history to ever do so.
Virat Kohli and Krunal Pandya’s partnership of 73 runs saw them past the line with nine balls to spare; their win marks 14 points from 10 games for Bengaluru now sitting atop of points table while becoming first ever team to ever win six consecutive away matches in an IPL season since their inaugural victory last May at Arun Jaitley Stadium!
After being invited to bat, DC struggled for momentum against RCB’s potency in bowling attack. Abishek Porel started brightly scoring 28 off 11 balls while Tristan Stubbs added an innovative 34 off 18 late on; other batters struggled against accurate yet clinical bowling that saw regular wicket losses limit DC to an unimpressive total score.
KL Rahul displayed watchful batting at one end while Faf du Plessis battled through a groin injury to return for his first game since April 10.
But both were ultimately undone by Bhuvneshwar Kumar who claimed two early wickets to put the home team firmly in control, assisted by Suyash Sharma and Krunal Pandya’s tight bowling which restricted visitors’ runs per over to just 96 in 20 overs.
Tim David was brought in late in RCB’s innings as they attempted a comeback, and soon made an impressionful contribution with fours and sixes to take his score to 82 from 54 balls – this victory being their first against DC at Arun Jaitley Stadium since 2005!
Now they must improve on their performances at home before taking on Mumbai Indians next time around for what should be a pivotal encounter starting at 10:30 pm IST on March 8th 2019.

After an inauspicious start, DC are back on the right path thanks to Abishek Porel and Tristan Stubbs’ impressive middle-order partnership, adding 96 off 92 balls between them – pulling DC closer than ever to RCB’s total but leaving much uncertainty regarding who may emerge victorious from this exciting battle for top four places.
Rajat Patidar won the toss and elected to bat first, which proved wise as the pitch is playing true to form with both pace and spin present, making batting difficult.
Early in their innings, the visitors have struggled with the bat, with run-outs compounding their difficulties. Mitchell Starc skittled Jacob Bethell and Devdutt Padikkal off Mitchell Starc’s bowling in the second over, followed by Virat Kohli miscuing a pull off Axar Patel to deep midwicket for one run out each in subsequent overs.
But they were given a boost with Faf du Plessis’ return, who had been recovering from a groin injury. So far he has had mixed success, hitting some boundaries while also producing some poor shots.
RCB have overcome their difficulties and remain competitive for a top four finish despite struggling. Now they must focus on holding their nerve in the final overs.
Josh Hazlewood stepped into the bowling attack in the 14th over following Suyash’s impressive spell and took one key wicket to keep Australia within their grasp.
A shortish ball down leg side by him skidded through Axar Patel’s attempted slog sweep attempt before hitting Axar Patel and the stumps for an immediate wicket-taking victory.
Kohli fell victim to Dushmantha Chameera’s legcutter in the 17th over, failing to connect it and sending the ball into Tim David at long off for another right-hander to take a catch. Royal Challengers Bangalore now need 18 off 24 to win this match.
