Delhi Capitals (DC) are taking on Rajasthan Royals in match 62 of IPL 2026 at Arun Jaitley Stadium. DC have 10 points from eight games and are all but out of contention for a place in the playoffs. They will be keen to end the disappointing season on a high. RR have 12 points from 11 matches and are in desperate need of a win to keep their playoff hopes alive.
DC registered a three-wicket win over Punjab Kings (PBKS) in their previous match in Dharamsala. Chasing a target of 211, they recovered from a poor start to chase down the target in 19 overs.
RR were hammered by Gujarat Titans (GT) by 77 runs in their previous match in Jaipur. Bowling first, RR conceded 229-4 and were then bowled out for 152 in the chase as not a single batter managed a half-century.

Today’s DC vs RR pitch report
“Looking at the surface, one half, it appears fairly hard. There’s very little live grass on it. Then, as a contrast, let me take you further down the pitch where there are a few areas that actually look even drier than the end we started at. The ground staff have said it’s been rolled quite hard. Once the footmarks begin to develop, we’ll get a clearer picture. Hopefully the surface holds together nicely.” – Anjum Chopra and Ian Bishop
