![RR vs DC.](https://resize.indiatvnews.com/en/centered/newbucket/1200_675/2024/03/untitled-design-2024-03-28t122923-1711609172.jpg)
Rajasthan Royals (RR) and Delhi Capitals (DC) look all geared up to take on each other in the ninth game of the ongoing 17th edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). The match will be played at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur on Thursday, March 28 and it will be the second home game for Rajasthan this season.
An emerging trend can be concerning for Delhi ahead of the game on Thursday. The home side has won all eight games of the season and since Rajasthan will be playing at home and are riding on the winning momentum, they are yet again the favourites to clinch the contest.
Rajasthan skipper Sanju Samson is in great touch and will be expected to lead them from the front again. Trent Boult will be spearheading the pace attack like always and can pose a threat with the new ball.
Sawai Mansingh Stadium Pitch Report
The pitch to be used for the game is expected to be two-paced and that can make shot-making a difficult task for the batters. The mercury is on the rise in Jaipur and that would bring the spinners into the game as the wicket will be slightly on the drier side. The average first innings score at the venue is 175 ( based on the previous season and the only game played in Jaipur this season).
Teams batting first at the venue have won four times since the last season whereas the teams chasing have only won twice.
