In the IPL 2026 match against Delhi Capitals (DC), Rajasthan Royals (RR) have reached the score of 91 runs for the loss of two wickets after the completion of 10 overs at the Sawai Mansingh Stadium in Jaipur.
Having opted to bat first, RR`s opening batsman Yashasvi Jaiswal scored six runs in three balls, including a maximum. Fellow opening batsman Vaibhav Sooryavanshi departed on four runs in two balls, including a boundary.
Wicketkeeper-batsman Dhruv Jurel and skipper Riyan Parag are unbeaten at the crease.
DC`s star pacer Mitchell Starc has claimed one wicket by conceding 16 runs in two overs. Kyle Jamieson also bagged one wicket by giving away 33 runs in three overs. Captain Axar Patel and star spinner Kuldeep Yadav will continue the hunt for their first wickets.
Earlier, RR`s skipper Parag won the toss and elected to bat first against the Capitals.
After winning the toss, Parag said, “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. (On the win against Punjab Kings) I think the middle order and lower order finishing it like the way they did and the openers as usual starting really brilliantly. But as a collective team effort, chasing down 220 always helps. Everyone`s stepping up. That has been the motto, like, as I was saying, we haven`t been playing proper and complete cricket for 40 overs. Hopefully we can narrow it down as the tournament reaches the business end. Another show today and we can rest for a few days. Bishnoi comes back in and Shubham is into the main team”.
The Capitals entered the clash with two changes, where Ashutosh Sharma came in place of Sahil Parakh, and Dushmantha Chameera made way for Mitchell Starc.
