Weather update for IPL match today: Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) host Delhi Capitals (DC) at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium in a match that has a lot hinging on it for both teams. Before the IPL match today, Delhi Capitals are fifth in the IPL 2024 standings with 12 points from 12 games while RCB are seventh with 10 points from the same number of games.
The IPL match today will see a clash between two in-form teams in the IPL at the moment: Delhi Capitals have won three of their last four games while RCB come into this match with four wins on the trot.
A loss today for RCB would eliminate them from IPL playoffs contention. DC also are unlikely to make the cut if they lose Sunday’s IPL match.
