DC Playing XI vs RCB: Will Rishabh Pant drop Rovman Powell and bring in Tim Seifert against RCB? – Follow LIVE updates
One of the major concerns for the Rishabh Pant led team is the form of batsman Rovman Powell. The West Indian has failed to make a single meaningful contribution this season and it remains to be seen whether he makes way for Tim Seifert to come back into the side.
DC Playing XI vs RCB: Why should Rovman Powell be replaced?
- In four matches so far the West Indian has managed to score just 31 runs, that includes two single digit scores and a duck.
- He is averaging just 7.75 and also has a strike rate of 103.33, which is the worst among all the batsman who have played for Delhi so far.
- Tim Seifert who played the first two matches in Warner’s absence, has scored 24 runs so far and he deserves another go in place of under-firing Powell.

Anrich Nortje, who was dropped from the team in their last game is expected to warm the bench as he will not be fast-tracked back into the team. Khaleel Ahmed, who replaced Nortje impressed yet again with three wickets against KKR and he is expected to retain his spot in the team.

Shardul Thakur’s form is however a concern as his economy rate after four matches is 10.32. He has also taken only three wickets. Despite his poor show, he is expected to retain his spot.
