After losing their second match against Punjab Kings by five runs, Sanju Samson-led Rajasthan Royals would look to bounce back against struggling Delhi Capitals in the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL) on Saturday.
On the other hand, Delhi Capitals, who had been absolutely beaten in the first two games, would look for redemption. Rajasthan looks like an established squad, barring a couple of weak points, while on the other hand, Ricky Ponting and David Warner will have a lot to reflect on to end the losing streak.
indian express argues for the inclusion of Dhruv Jurel instead of Devdutt Padikkal in Rajasthan Royals batting lineup and left arm closer Chetan Sarkariya for Mukesh Kumar in capitals of delhi playing XI.
Horse mackerel for Padikkal
Playing his first IPL match, young wicketkeeper-batsman Dhruv Jurel showed his potential against Kings of Punjab. He came out to bat at 124 for 6 in 15 almost out of Rajasthan Royals reach, but turned the tide with his 15-ball 32, which was peppered with three fours and two sixes. The youngster almost took Rajasthan Royals home.

Porel for Sarfaraz
Abhishek Porel comes on as an “Impact Player” for Delhi Capitals during their last match against Gujarati Titans and the young goalkeeper from Bengal looked promising. He hit a gutsy 20 of 11 balls, including two sixes, and was exceptional with the gloves. Porel has been listed as Rishabh trousersSubstitute for , who is ruled out of the tournament after the terrible car accident he suffered last year.
In the first two games, Delhi gave the responsibility to half-time goalkeeper Sarfaraz Khan. He Mumbai The cricketer not only had glove problems but it also affected his batting. He scored a painful 30 from 34 balls in Delhi’s six-wicket defeat against the Titans.
Government for Kumar
The Indian bowling talent in Delhi Capitals seems inadequate when compared to the other IPL teams. Delhi has spent Rs 5.5 crore on Bengal pacer Mukesh Kumar, who has made his mark in domestic cricket with his feats on the red ball. In both matches he has played, Kumar has looked like a misfit in this format. Bengal’s pacer could be replaced by left-arm closer Chetan Sarkariya.
Venue Statistics
Only one match at the ACA Stadium in Barsapara. He looked decent enough to bat with Punjab registering 197 and Rajasthan almost trailing him at 192 in the second innings.
