Notably, the capitals are currently at the bottom of the IPL 2023 Points Table while RCB are at number five.

Delhi, on the other hand, defeated table toppers Gujarat Titans in their last match but there still are a lot of areas that the David Warner-led side will have to improve in. Especially their batting, which has not fired in the absence of Rishabh Pant. Phil Salt, Rilee Rossouw, Manish Pandey, Priyam Garg and Sarfaraz Khan among many others have been very poor in the ongoing season, while with the ball, they have done a remarkable job so far. Anrich Nortje and Axar Patel have been fantastic and so has been veteran pacer Ishant Sharma.
