Delhi Capitals vs Rajasthan Royals prediction

Delhi Capitals began the IPL season with four straight victories before losing to Mumbai Indians by 12 runs at the Arun Jaitley Stadium on Sunday.

The Capitals return to the Delhi venue for their clash with Rajasthan Royals and bookmakers expect Axar Patel's men to claim a fifth win in six games.

Despite their strong start to the campaign, doubts remain over Delhi's batting unit and only Karun Nair, making his first IPL appearance in almost three years, managed to get the better of Mumbai's bowlers.

Nair smashed 89 off 40 balls but his dismissal sparked a collapse culminating in a hat-trick of run-outs in the 19th over.

Delhi will be hoping for a better batting display against Rajasthan, who have lost four of their first six matches this term.

Royal Challengers Bengaluru chased down 174 against the Royals for the loss of only one wicket on Sunday but Sri Lankan leg-spinner Wanindu Hasaranga should pose a threat on a dry Delhi pitch.

Hasaranga took 4-35 in last month's win over Chennai, dismissing four of the Super Kings' top five, and Mumbai leggie Karn Sharma was player of the match against the Capitals on Sunday, when spinners took nine wickets while fast bowlers claimed only three.
