Rajasthan vs Delhi on April 22

The 40th match of IPL 2019 will be played on 22 April at 8 PM IST between the Rajasthan Royals and the Delhi Capitals at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur. RR have won three matches and lost six, and presently find themselves at seventh place in the IPL points table. On the other hand, DC are in the third position, having won six matches and lost four. The RR vs DC rivalry has seen 18 matches being played so far, with RR winning 11 of those games and DC winning the remaining 7. Overall too RR are the more successful side, having won the title once, while DC have never managed to do so. When these two teams met each other in the last season, both managed to win one match each. Since Jos Buttler is not available for the rest of the season, RR are likely to stick with the same XI which defeated MI. This means Ben Stokes and Ashton Turner will get one more chance despite their poor performances. Sandeep Lamichhane picked three wickets against KXIP on Saturday, and he will retain his spot ahead of Keemo Paul. The only change expected is DC replacing Sherfane Rutherford with Chris Morris.

Best economical pick – Riyan Parag will retain his place on the back of his impressive batting performance against MI on Saturday. He was cool and composed during his innings, which helped his team get over the line.

Top captains & vice captains – Shikhar Dhawan played yet another sensible knock at the top order for the Capitals in the last game. With an inexperienced bunch of batters around him, Dhawan had to ensure that he stayed on for a major part of the run chase. He did the same and did it in fine fashion. He notched up his 35th IPL fifty, and his third this season. He scored 56 off just 41 balls with 7 fours and a six to his name.

Smart pick – The South African speedster Kagiso Rabada is leading the wickets tally with 21 wickets from 10 games. He will be the trump card for the Delhi Capitals against the Rajasthan Royals on Monday.

Cautious Pick – Prithvi Shaw’s poor run of form with the bat continues. As has been the case for him in almost every game in recent times, he showed promise with a couple of flamboyant shots in the last game. But soon, he ended up throwing his wicket away.

My XI – Shikhar Dhawan (Captain), Steve Smith (Vice-Captain), Kagiso Rabada, Riyan Parag, Shreyas Gopal, Sandeep Lamichhane, Jofra Archer, Rishabh Pant, Sanju Samson, Shreyas Iyer, Stuart Binny
