Time: 8 PM IST

Preview




Rajasthan Royals are playing their first game at home and after the loss against SRH in their first match, this game would be a perfect opportunity to start gaining some momentum for the league ahead. Delhi Daredevils are also on a similar run having lost their first match of the season. Gambhir and co would be looking to get a win where RR have a ludicrous win percentage of 72.

Team News

Rajasthan Royals

Every first team player is well sorted and there isn't anything to tweak in this team. They will look to field their same XI from the previous match.

Delhi Daredevils

Glenn Maxwell has returned from Australia and has joined the team. He is practicing form the morning and looks like he will be straight back into the starting XI. Chriss Morris and Daniel Christian look like one of them will be making a way for Maxwell. It is however not clear as to who will be dropped.

RR

Ajinkya Rahane(c), D Arcy Short, Sanju Samson, Ben Stokes, Rahul Tripathi, Jos Buttler(w), Krishnappa Gowtham, Shreyas Gopal, Dhawal Kulkarni, Jaydev Unadkat, Ben Laughlin

Would like to see some of the younger players at Delhi like Prithvi Shaw get a game at some point

Yes, hopefully in the coming games. He's a very good player and an exposure at this level would improve him a lot.
