Rajasthan Royals are probably just 1 win away from securing a playoff berth as they've won 7 out of the 11 games played so far. Sanju Samson has been leading a very confident side which is reaping the benefits of having a sound auction strategy. The bowling unit looks pretty confident and so does the batting department. Both orange and purple cap holders come from Rajasthan Royals which shows the depth of the team.

Delhi Capitals on the other hand have been plagued with Covid-19 and have been finding it tough to get success on the field. With 5 wins in 11 games, the Rishabh Pant led side has been sliding downhill so far. The bowling unit looks strong but the batters have disappointed so far in IPL 2022. Despite strong starts in almost every game, the middle order including captain Rishabh Pant has been a massive disappointment.

RR vs DC Head-to-Head Record

The two teams have played each other 25 times, with the Royals winning 13 games.
