- Preview: Match 11 of VIVO IPL 2016 will see Royal Challengers Bangalore come up against the Delhi Daredevils
Royal Challengers Bangalore, perennial favourites in the IPL and a hugely popular side with the crowds, opened their season with a dominant performance against Sunrisers Hyderabad. After the batsmen had piled on 227 runs on the board, the bowlers restricted the visitors to 182 to guide the team to their first points of the season.
Delhi Daredevils were outclassed by the Kolkata Knight Riders in their opening match, before the team bounced back well to defeat Kings XI Punjab by eight wickets. Largely a young side, the Delhi Daredevils seem to have found the right combination – bringing in the experience of JP Duminy to strengthen the batting.Among the batsmen who will showcase their skills in this match, one should look out for Chris Gayle, Virat Kohli, AB de Villiers and Shane Watson, who form the nucleus of RCB’s line-up, and for Quinton de Kock and JP Duminy in the Delhi Daredevils line-up. Among the Indian lads, DD certainly have the cream of the Indian lads – Shreyas Iyer and Karun Nair are among the lads knocking the doors of the selectors for a place in the national team.
Among the bowlers, Zaheer Khan has rediscovered his mojo; the DD skipper got the ball talking in the previous match, and he will certainly be more than a handful, especially at the Chinnaswamy Stadium, where he has picked up more wickets than at any other venue. Also look out for the two leg-spinners Amit Mishra and Yuzvendra Chahal, who have this knack of picking up important wickets. DD might look at giving Imran Tahir his first game of the season to make it two leg-spinners in the line-up.The head to head between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Delhi Daredevils reads 9-5 in favour of the former. RCB appear to have a stranglehold over DD, given they are undefeated in the last nine matches between the two teams (eight wins, one wash out). The last time that Delhi Daredevils defeated RCB in a match was in their home fixture in the 2010 season.
