RR vs DC IPL 2024 Live Updates: Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals score and match updates
Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals will be looking for another impressive performance as they host Delhi Capitals in their second game of the IPL 2024 season on Thursday, March 28. The Royals recorded a dominant win against Lucknow Super Giants in their first game of the season to take the top spot in the first week of the tournament.
On the other hand, Rishabh Pant-led Capitals suffered a heavy defeat against Punjab Kings while defending 175 runs in their first game. Delhi camp is set to welcome back their star overseas pacer Anrich Nortje for this fixture while Prithvi Shaw is likely to sit out again in this game.
Live Scorecard
Emotions are settled, mum’s here as well. She’s seen the struggles, this feels special. I know what my ability is and I never let that change – irrespective of whether I perform or not.
Definitely disappointed. The best thing to do from here to learn from it. The bowlers did well through the 15-16 overs. But the batters did well at the death, hopefully we do better in the next game. The platform that Warner-Marsh gave was very nice. We had to save wickets. We had to consolidate but at the end we had a lot to cover up. [On not bowling Nortje to Parag earlier] There is always one or the other option, but we wanted to finish Nortje in the death overs. Sometimes you are going to go for runs. Didn’t go well for us today.
Impressive greedy spells from Sandeep Sharma and Avesh Khan to defend 32 runs in the last two overs.
Tristan Stubbs’ late cameo almost pulled a win for the Capitals but Rajasthan bowlers won the death overs battle again to earn a 12 runs win.
Yuzvendra Chahal takes his second wicket of the game as he removes impact player Abishek Porel to put Rajasthan Royals in the driving seat for the first time.
Abishek Porel scored 9 runs off 10 balls. Axar Patel joins Tristan Stubbs in the middle.
Delhi Capitals – 126/5 in 16 overs and need 60 runs in 24 balls to win the game.
Yuzvendra Chahal ends Rishabh Pant’s struggling innings with Sanju Samson taking an excellent catch behind.

Rajasthan brings in pacer Nadred Burger as an impact sub in the place of Shimron Hetmyer.
It’s a result of a lot of practice behind the scenes. It’s not the bowler but the ball he’s bowling and I practised against a lot of those balls and could execute the shots tonight. I have my options ready both sides of the wicket, that’s what I’ve been working on lately. I back myself, I know I have the power to dig out yorkers and hit sixes off short balls. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t. Sanga and Sanju bhaiyya came in and told me to do it deep, knew I’d go big at the end if I did. For someone coming in, it’s not easy but not as much for someone set. It’s been tough, I am a bit emotional right now. But it’s been a lot of work. Backed myself, practiced a lot, seeing the fruits of it now.
Riyan Parag continues his excellent form by smashing five consecutive boundaries off Anrich Nortje in the last over.

Jos Buttler and Yashasvi Jaiswal are out in the middle to kick off Rajasthan Royals’ innings.
Khaleel Ahmed to bowl the first over for Delhi Capitals.
We would have bowled first, dew could come in the second innings. Both pitches have an even covering of grass, but the last match was an afternoon game. All the 10 teams are geared up and prepared well, we just need to follow the process and not think too much, then we will be fine. Same team for us.
We’ll bowl first. The wicket looks fine and we want to use it, there might be some dew in the 2nd innings. Feels good to play 100 matches for the same franchise, but every game is important for me. Most of the concerns are regarding injury, but these are things you can’t control. Two changes for us – Ishant hasn’t recovered, Shai Hope has a back spasm. Anrich Nortje and Mukesh Kumar come in.
Rajasthan Royals impact players: RR Impact Subs list: Rovman Powell, Nandre Burger, Tanush Kotian, Shubham Dubey, Kuldeep Sen.

Rishabh Pant won the crucial toss and elected to bowl first against Rajasthan Royals.
Anrich Nortje and Mukesh Kumar return to Delhi’s playing XIs while Rajasthan Royals remain unchanged.
Rishabh Pant is all set to play his 100th IPL game for Delhi Capitals. He will become the most-capped DC player in IPL history.
Both Rajasthan Royals and Delhi Capitals faced each other last in Guwahati in the league stages fixture of IPL 2023.
