In a one-sided bowling masterclass at the Arun Jaitley Stadium, Royal Challengers Bengaluru ripped through Delhi Capitals’ batting lineup, skittling them out for a paltry 75 in just 16.3 overs – the lowest total of the entire 2026 TATA IPL season so far.
The damage was led by Josh Hazlewood, who produced a fiery spell of 4 wickets for just 12 runs, leaving DC’s batters shell-shocked. Abhishek Porel fought bravely for a top score of 30 off 33 balls, while David Miller chipped in with a quick 19 off 18, but the rest of the lineup simply had no answers to RCB’s relentless pace attack.
What started as Match 39 quickly turned into a horror show for the home side. Wickets fell in clusters, and the Delhi crowd fell eerily silent as the scoreboard refused to move. By the time the innings wrapped up, RCB’s fielders were jumping in delight, knowing they only needed 76 runs to seal a commanding victory.
At the innings break, the momentum sits heavily with RCB. With Virat Kohli and his men eyeing a straightforward chase under the Delhi lights, a comfortable win looks on the cards. For DC, it’s a night to forget – and a wake-up call ahead of the business end of the season.
The chase is underway, and the entire cricket world is watching.
