Rajasthan Royals vs Delhi Capitals (RR vs DC) Today Match Prediction Preview:
Welcome to the RR vs DC Today Prediction curated by Kheltalk cricket experts. Rajasthan Royals will face Delhi Capitals in the 58th match of the TATA IPL, 2022 on Wednesday, 11th May 2022 at the Wankhede. Keep on reading for more information on the RR vs. DC game.
Delhi Capitals suffered a bitter loss against Chennai Super Kings which has made their chances for a playoff really tough. They now need to win the last three games and even after that, their qualification is not guaranteed. Delhi this season has struggled to pick early wickets and has a really poor record in the tournament. They haven’t won a game at DY Patil Stadium and their misery is likely to continue considering the hot and cold performance throughout the tournament.
For Rajasthan Royals, they find themselves in a pole position to qualify for playoffs. They have 14 points in the kitty and still have 3 games left. Unfortunately, Shimron Hetymer has returned home after the birth of his child and will be unavailable for this match.
This game isn’t a do or die for Rajasthan but they would be looking to quickly wrap up a playoff spot as this race is expected to go down the wire and having an early move is necessary. Rajasthan Royals have already defeated Delhi Capitals once and again are strong favorites for this clash. Their batting looks even more strong after Jaiswal’s impressive performance in the last game.

RR vs DC Today Match Prediction, IPL 2022, Who Will Win the Match?
RR to win
Rajasthan Royals have a big upper hand over Delhi Capitals because of their recent form and DY Patil’s surface where Delhi hasn’t won a game. Although Hetymer’s absence is going to be a big miss, Rajasthan has enough options to replace their finisher. While Delhi is constantly failing to show consistency in every department and it has now created a do-or-die situation in the tournament and the last match’s big loss has nearly booked their home tickets. We think Rajasthan Royals are gonna win this clash.
