In the high scoring match at Dubai today, Royal Challengers Bangalore bowlers did not get much success against Delhi Capitals. Even their star bowler Yuzvendra Chahal ended up without any wicket and conceding 29 runs in three overs. Mohammed Siraj, the new inclusion of the RCB squad for the match took two wickets for 34 runs in his four overs. Washington Sundar was the most successful bowler for RCB in case of giving away runs with a brilliant figure of 4-0-20-0. But Chahal, due to his previous performances still manages to occupy the second spot in the IPL 2020 Purple Cap table.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals bowlers showed their best to defend the total. Kagiso Rabada led the way with the ball and picked up four wickets in four overs for just 24 runs. No wonder, the consistent performer of Delhi Capitals is leading the following table as well with 12 wickets to his name so far. Anrich Nortje and Axar Patel picked up two wickets each and gave the support Rabada needed. Nortje, with a total of seven wickets, is standing at 5th place.
