Delhi Capitals Win Toss, Elect to Field Against RCB in Crucial IPL 2025 Clash

In a key IPL 2025 encounter, Delhi Capitals have won the toss and opted to field first against Royal Challengers Bengaluru at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium. With just 20 minutes to go before the start, both teams have announced their playing XIs. RCB, led by Rajat Patidar, will rely heavily on big names like Virat Kohli, Philip Salt, and Rajat Patidar himself, while bowlers Josh Hazelwood and Krunal Pandya will play vital roles with the ball.

Delhi Capitals skipper Axar Patel confirmed Faf du Plessis is fit to play, but Sameer Rizvi misses out. The Capitals have packed their side with spin options, including Kuldeep Yadav and Axar himself, anticipating a turning track. Jake Fraser-McGurk and Faf du Plessis will look to provide a solid start, while Mitchell Starc will spearhead the pace attack.

With home advantage and a strong lineup, RCB will aim to post a competitive total, while DC hope to restrict and chase effectively under lights.
