IPL 2023 DC vs RCB: Date, Time, Venue, Head-To-Head, Pitch Report, Dream11 Prediction, Probable Playing 11 And Squads: Following a confidence-boosting victory over the defending champions, the Delhi Capitals will host the batting powerhouse Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 50th match of the IPL 2023 on Saturday, April 15. Virat Kohli, who is in good form, will play at his home stadium, the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi.

The Capitals had a late-season rise, winning three of their past four games. DC, captained by David Warner, had a disappointing start to the IPL 2023 season, losing five consecutive games. However, they never gave up hope and proved to their supporters in the second half of the IPL. They are still in the alive for a playoff spot.

RCB, too, is on a roll, having won three of their past four games. At the M Chinnaswamy Stadium, RCB won by 23 runs in their first meeting with DC this season. The biggest news for RCB is that Josh Hazelwood has joined the squad and will help them improve their pace attack.

IPL 2023 DC vs RCB Prediction

RCB, which is now fifth in the points standings, has the finest batting lineup, led by skipper FAF. Bowling is still a concern for them, but the addition of Josh Hazelwood to the camp may aid their bowling attack. DC, on the other side, has been playing well this season, winning three of the previous four games. Captain David Warner’s present form, on the other hand, has the potential to blow RCB fans’ heads. Given the conditions and pitch report, RCB may triumph over DC.
