Rajasthan looks to stop losing streak

-

SHARJAH: Struggling to figure out its best playing eleven, Rajasthan Royals (RR) will need to come up with some quick-fix measures when it takes on a formidable Delhi Capitals (DC) unit in an Indian Premier League (IPL) 2020 match here on Friday.

Rajasthan was off to a flying start, winning both its games in Sharjah. But, it has struggled to adjust to the bigger grounds of Dubai and Abu Dhabi, slipping to three successive defeats. Back to the Sharjah Cricket Stadium, Rajasthan will take inspiratio­n from its two big wins here to turn things around against Delhi.

Led by Shreyas Iyer, DC has looked solid in all three department­s, winning four of its opening five matches. While captain Steve Smith, Sanju Samson and opener Jos Buttler will hold the key for Rajasthan, Iyer, Prithvi Shaw and Marcus Stoinis will be the men to watch out for in the Delhi set-up.
