RR vs DC Live: OUT! Jaiswal is GONE!

This was not a wicket-taking delivery, but maybe Yashasvi Jaiswal was outplayed by the pace of it. Mitchell Starc bowled a fiery full toss, and Jaiswal got it off the sticker of his bat. The ball popped up in front of the bowler, who took the catch comfortably. RR are one down.

RR vs DC Live: Here are the Playing XIs -

Rajasthan Royals (Playing XI): Yashasvi Jaiswal, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi, Dhruv Jurel(w), Riyan Parag(c), Donovan Ferreira, Ravindra Jadeja, Shubham Dubey, Jofra Archer, Ravi Bishnoi, Nandre Burger, Brijesh Sharma

Delhi Capitals (Playing XI): KL Rahul(w), Pathum Nissanka, Nitish Rana, Sameer Rizvi, Tristan Stubbs, Axar Patel(c), Ashutosh Sharma, Kyle Jamieson, Mitchell Starc, Kuldeep Yadav, T Natarajan.

RR vs DC Live: David Miller dropped!

"(Mitchell) Starc is playing and unfortunately (Dushmantha) Chameera isn't playing. Sahil Parikh got injured and Pathum (Nissanka) is playing in his place, that'll be four overseas players which means David Miller sits out. Ashutosh Sharma is also there, so these are the three changes. The wicket looks good and we're happy to chase," said Delhi Capitals captain Axar Patel.

RR vs DC Live: Parag's big claim on pitch -

"We're going to bat first. I think it's not the usual Jaipur wicket. It's a bit dry; we noticed that yesterday and the pitch played a little faster on the other day. So hopefully it gets a little slow in the back end, so that's why we're batting first. (Ravi) Bishnoi comes back in and Shubham (Dubey) is into the main team," said Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag.

RR vs DC Live: Rajasthan Royals opt to bat!

Rajasthan Royals captain Riyan Parag has won the toss and opted to bat first against Delhi Capitals in their IPL 2026 game at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur.

RR vs DC Live: What has been concerning Delhi Capitals?

Delhi Capitals' biggest concern has been their inconsistent batting. While the likes of KL Rahul, David Miller, Tristan Stubbs and Sameer Rizvi have all contributed in patches, the unit has failed to click collectively. In the last match, Abhishek Porel's knock as an Impact Player was one of the few positives, helping the team avoid a record-low total and the team management will be tempted to give him a go in the playing XI.

RR vs DC Live: Rajasthan's solid batting!

Rajasthan Royals have a strong batting line-up. Their top order has been aggressive, with fearless Vaibhav Sooryavanshi taking on world class bowlers like Jasprit Bumrah, Josh Hazlewood and Pat Cummins from the outset and Yashasvi Jaiswal showing good touch.

Another positive for Rajasthan is the middle order finding form after a slow start. That gives them more balance and makes them harder to contain across the innings.

RR vs DC Live: Starc to return into action!

There is some good news on the bowling front for Delhi Capitals. Pace ace Mitchell Starc is set to return after getting clearance from Cricket Australia to play from May 1. With Lungi Ngidi still unavailable, Starc's inclusion comes as a timely boost. He is likely to replace either Kyle Jamieson or Dushmantha Chameera.

RR vs DC Live: DC aim for a turnaround!

With three wins and four losses, Delhi Capitals are seventh on the points table and need a turnaround soon. Having lost three consecutive matches, the side will be eager to get back on track and boost their playoff hopes.

RR vs DC Live: Sooryavanshi nearing big world record!

Vaibhav Sooryavanshi is only one maximum away from becoming the fastest batter in world cricket to register 100 T20 sixes. He has 99 T20 sixes to his name in 511 balls (27 innings). The record for the fastest to 100 T20 sixes is currently held by Kieron Pollard (843 balls).

RR vs DC Live: Task cut out for Delhli

Delhi Capitals have had little time to dwell on what has been a bruising stretch of results as they gear up to face a confident Rajasthan Royals tonight. It has been a difficult run for the Axar Patel-led side this season. They have swung between extremes in the last two games. From posting a 250-plus total only to concede a world-record chase, to being bowled out for 75 against Royal Challengers Bengaluru.
