RCB, DD seek revival after ordinary IPL beginnings

By The Assam Tribune

BENGALURU, April 20: Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Daredevils are desperate for a win and both will be trying to outdo each other in the Indian Premier League here tomorrow.

RCB and Daredevils find themselves at bottom of the points table with just a win each from four matches.

Both RCB and Daredevils go into the crucial tie tomorrow after losing to Mumbai Indians and Kolkata Knight Riders, respectively.

The Virat Kohli-led side started its campaign on a losing note against KKR, but bounced back in the next match against Kings XI Punjab at home, before losing the next two matches against Rajasthan Royals and Mumbai Indians.

RCB must tighten-up their bowling having conceded 200 plus runs in the previous two games at home. The spin duo of Yuzvendra Chahal and Washington Sundar have gone for runs and would be itching to put up a better show tomorrow.

It will be a challenge for them against Delhi who boast world-class batsmen including Jason Roy, Gautam Gambhir, Rishabh Pant, Shreyas Iyer and Glenn Maxwell.

On the brighter side, Kohli�s return to form with a quickfire 57 and unbeaten 92 against Royals and Mumbai has boosted RCB�s confidence.

Kohli, who had opened the innings against Mumbai, slammed four sixes and seven fours in his unbeaten knock, but none of his batting colleagues gave him support.

The next best came from his partner Quinton de Kock who made 19 from 12 balls.

South African AB de Villiers, who has scored 122 runs so far, would like to get a big knock under his belt. � PTI
