The 50th Match of the Indian Premier League(IPL) 2023, will be played between Delhi Capitals and Royal Challengers Bangalore at Arun Jaitley Stadium, Delhi on 6th May. It will be an amazing match as Virat Kohli returns at his home ground although it's Delhi Capitals home venue but there will be no doubt that RCB will be getting much support at Delhi because of The Greatest Batsman In Cricket. Both the teams have won 3 games in the last 4 matches they have played. Delhi Capitals in the previous match defeated Table Toppers Gujarat Titans and that too defending the target of just 130 runs, They got a new hero in batting in the form of Aman Khan who scored his first fifty in IPL and in bowling Ishant Sharma showed why experience plays an important role in tough situation as he defended just 12 runs in the last over. On the other hand Royal Challengers Bangalore too defended just 126 runs, in batting Faf du Plessis continued his good form this season. In the second innings all the bowlers performed really well as RCB won the match by 18 runs. RCB have also included Kedar Jadhav to strengthen their middle order which was looking inexperienced. RCB are favorites as they are looking like a very Settled side.
