DC vs RCB: RCB aim to find consistency in the business end of IPL against confident DC
RCB have won five games, but in between, there have been four losses, which has cost them to lose momentum. Bowling and lack of contribution from middle-order batters have been a major let-down in the losses. Bowling though has improved nicely with the resurgence of Harshal Patel and the inclusion of Josh Hazlewood. Middle-order batter is still an issue, and RCB would be hoping Kedar Jadhav’s inclusion will solve those woes. With the business end of the tournament nearing, RCB would be desperate to find consistency and break aim for a top-two finish.
Meanwhile, bowlers have been doing a fine job so far for DC, but it is their batting that is a big worry. Barring Warner and Axar Patel, the rest of the batters have failed to show consistency. A better batting display is what DC would be aiming against RCB.
