Toss
Delhi Capitals won the toss and chose to bowl first.
The Capitals, on the other hand, are heading into the match after a massive 44-run win over Kolkata Knight Riders.
It was absence of Harshal which hurt the team as skipper Faf du Plessis looked out of options to control the rampaging duo of Shivam Dube and Robin Uthappa, who took the bowlers to the cleaners as CSK posted a huge total on board.
RCB were flying high with three successive wins before Chennai Super Kings outwitted them by 23 runs in their last outing.
