Having suffered back-to-back defeats against Kings XI Punjab and Kolkata Knight Riders, Delhi Capitals will be keen to seal their play-offs berth when they face Sunrisers Hyderabad in match number 47 of IPL 2020 at Dubai on Tuesday. Despite the two losses, Delhi are comfortably placed with 14 points from 11 matches. Sunrisers Hyderabad, on the other hand, dealt their chances a major blow by failing to chase down 127 against Kings XI Punjab. With eight points from 11 matches, their chances of progressing to the play-offs are wafer thin.

Rajasthan Royals kept their playoff hopes alive by a comprehensive win over the table toppers Mumbai Indians as they chased down 195 with ridiculous ease courtesy Stokes 107*(60) and Samson 54*(31).

Bottom-placed Chennai Super Kings will face in-from Royal Challengers Bangalore in match 44 of IPL 2020 at Dubai, in the first game on Sunday.

RCB, in complete contrast, have 14 points from 10 games, and trail Mumbai and Delhi only the basis on net run-rate.

Punjab registered a come from behind victory to win their fourth win on trot and keep their playoff hopes alive. Jordan, Arshdeep gave away only 7 runs in the last three overs and also picked up three wickets apiece as Punjab beat Hyderabad by a slender 12 runs.

The Kolkata Knight Riders put up a massive score of 194 courtesy a measured 81 by Rana and a quickfire 64 by Narine. Varun Chakravarthy spun a web around the DC’s middle order as he registered his career best figures of 5-20.

On a high having registered a hat-trick of victories, Kings XI Punjab will look to continue their tremendous fight back as they take on Sunrisers Hyderabad at Dubai in match number 43 of IPL 2020 on Sunday.
