The Delhi-based team has played six fixtures while they won and lost three games each. On the points table, DC have acquired the sixth spot.
On the other hand, Rajasthan Royals have been going through a good season so far. After playing six games till now, they won four matches and lost twice. The in-form Jos Butler, who has smashed two centuries so far is anchoring the RR batting line-up. Some frequent contributions from Sanju Samson and Shimron Hetmyer have strengthened their batting unit. The bowling department of the inaugural champions speaks for itself with players like Yuzvendra Chahal, Ravichandran Ashwin and Trent Boult. Rajasthan have occupied the third position with eight points on the leaderboard.
