6 Min Read
Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) and Delhi Capitals (DC) will face each other in Match 24 of the Indian Premier League 2025. The two teams have had a great run in the tournament so far. DC have arguably been the best team of the season, as they are the only team yet to lose a match. RCB aren't far behind, having lost just a solitary game this season.
DC started their tournament on a thrilling note, beating LSG by a solitary wicket and chasing down 210 — their highest in the league's history. They then overcame SRH by 7 wickets in a one-sided contest. In their most recent match, DC beat CSK convincingly by 25 runs. Most of their players are in form, and Faf du Plessis’ return could further boost their confidence.
On the other hand, RCB have had a fine run this season. All of their wins have come away from home, with a couple of them being their first in years. RCB beat KKR by 7 wickets in their backyard to start their campaign. They later beat CSK handsomely by 50 runs — their first win against CSK in Chepauk since 2008.
While RCB lost to GT at home, they bounced back in style by winning a thrilling encounter against MI at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. The match between RCB and DC will take place at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru on the 10th of April at 7:30 PM (IST). One can expect a cracker of a match, with star players like Virat Kohli, Rajat Patidar, KL Rahul, Axar Patel, Mitchell Starc, and Josh Hazlewood in action.

Pitch Report
The match will be played at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru. The surface is known to be one of the best for batting. However, during the GT vs RCB match, the bowlers were assisted a little. The pitch might offer something for the spinners, while pacers could get an early swing. That said, the batters should still be able to cope with it.
It’s one of the smallest stadiums in the world, and batters will find it comfortable to clear the fence. Dew might not be a major factor at this stage of the tournament. However, chasing is generally easier at this venue. The toss might not play a huge role, but the team winning it would still prefer to bowl first.
